SAUER, David French (1929-2009). David Sauer was born in Richmond, Va., on November 21, 1929. He received his B.F.A. from Richmond Professional Institute (now VCU) and his M.F.A. from Columbia University in New York. He also did further post-graduate study at Columbia in Oriental Art History under Jane Gaston Mahler, specializing in Southern Sung painting. After a year abroad in Europe, studying in Perugia and Florence, he returned to Richmond to begin a teaching career at VCU in painting. At the age of 16, he received the distinction of being the youngest exhibitor to be admitted to a national art exhibition with his painting entitled "Still Life Number 14" which was included in the Fifth Biennial of Contemporary American Painting at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. During his 60 years as a painter, he has exhibited in New York City, Atlanta, Richmond, North Carolina, Virginia Beach, Norfolk and San Francisco. A number of his works were included in the Duncan Phillips collection in Washington, D.C. A review of his paintings from the Herald Tribune in 1954 aptly commented that "his colors are bold, his forms big and free, but they still depict (in a manner which suggests Bonnard with Benzedrine) flowers, landscapes, rooms, fruit - all the things that speak of the joy of living." Photography captured his interest in the 1970s and he studied the Zone System with Ansel Adams at the Yosemite Workshop Series and added the Zone System class to his teaching responsibilities in the Photography Department at VCU. He died peacefully in his home on January 12. David is survived by his wife, Deborah; and his two brothers, Conrad F. Sauer III and T.E.A. Sauer of Richmond, Va. The family will receive friends 5 to 7 p.m. Monday, January 19, at Bliley's-Central, 3801 Augusta Avenue.
