The Sculpture Center is focused this year on the many exceptional artists at our larger region's institutions of higher learning, art schools, colleges, or universities. Our summer exhibitionSculptureX: 6 Sculptors from Ohio and Western Pennsylvania was curated by David Carrier from submissions from 35 schools in that area and is part of the SculptureX.org website, created by Edinboro University of Pennsylvania to serve as a collaborative professional exchange and marketing tool for all schools that want to participate. To launch these endeavors we held the well attended and highly successful SculptureX Symposium #1: The State of Sculpture at the Cleveland Institute of Art in November 2010.
Continuing with this theme of exchange and promotion, The Sculpture Center's call for artists for the annual juried After the Pedestal is being restricted, this one time only, to all current MFA students and 2009 -2011 MFA graduates from studio art programs in Ohio, its contiguous states (Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Pennsylvania) and Ontario, Canada. The artists can be working in all media of sculpture, including installation, conceptual work, and performance video if object based, are eligible. Barbara Hunt McLanahan, Executive Director of the Judd Foundation, is the juror for After the Pedestal. The exhibition will tie in withSculptureX Symposium #2: The State of the MFA, again being held at the Cleveland Institute of Art, on October 15, 2011, free and open to the public.
