Sculpture at New Hope Arts is open to artists in any 3 -dimensional medium. This show is a favorite with gallery goers and artists alike. 

Our jurors this year are Yvonne Love and Louise Feder. It has been our practice to selection one juror- artist and a juror from the curatorial world to provide a balanced overview of sculpture in the perspective of craftsmanship and curation. 

Yvonne Love received her MFA in sculpture from the University of Pennsylvania, a BDAE from the University of Florida and is an Assistant Professor of Art at Penn State Abington College. Her sculpture has been most recently exhibited at Taller Graphica in Havana, Cuba, Liquid Art House in Boston, LG Tripp Gallery in Philadelphia, Brenda Taylor Gallery in New York, and Sidetracks Gallery in New Hope, PA. website 

Louise Feder is the Assistant Curator at the James A. Michener Art Museum. Recent exhibitions she has presented at the Michener include Lloyd Ney: Local Color, Garber in Spring, Pattern Pieces, Unguarded, Untold, Iconic: Afghanistan Through the Lens of Steve McCurry (co-curated with Kelsey Halliday Johnson) and Philadelphia in Style: A Century of Fashion from the Robert and Penny Fox Historic Costume Collection, Drexel University (co-curated with Kirsten M. Jensen and Clare Sauro). Feder earned her MA in Art History from the Tyler School of Art at Temple University and her BA with honors in Art History from Dickinson College.
