John J. Szaton
John J. Szaton was a Polish-American sculptor born in 1907 in Ludlow, Massachusetts.
==Career==
Szaton apprenticed under well-known Illinois sculptor Lorado Taft, who invited Szaton to come to Chicago after meeting him on a lecture tour of various high schools and art schools in Massachusetts. Szaton, who became known for his sculpture, studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and at the now-defunct National Academy of Art in Chicago.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=AskArt.com )〕 He also worked on project for Taft and other artists, including the Lincoln Trail State Memorial by Nellie Walker, his wife's aunt.〔 Szaton also exhibited with the Polish Arts Club of Chicago
During the 1940s Szaton created several other sculptures: a War Memorial (1940) at the Northwest Armory, Chicago; ''Indian Shooting the Stars'' (1947) for Lane Tech High School, Chicago, as a tribute to students who died in World War II; and ''Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep'' (1947) for Cedar Park Cemetery, Calumet Park, Illinois.〔 Szaton continued to work at Taft's studio until it disbanded in 1947, then moved his family to Tinley Park, at that time a small rural suburb of Chicago, and commuted to Chicago to work during the week as a greeting card engraver; income from art commissions was not sufficient to sustain his family.〔 In 1948 Szaton built a large, vaulted-ceiling garage studio behind his home and continued to work on art projects.〔
