A celebration of diverse and contemporary approaches to the Third Dimension
 
Artists in this exhibition are nominated Sculptor Guild members, who are chosen on the basis of excellence. Their work is honest in its intention, and continually investigates and redefines sculpture, be it through 3D software, installation, traditional and / or non-traditional materials.
 
The Sculptors Guild is a non for profit organization of professional artists, founded in 1937 as an alternative to survival, an artist run WPA for sculpture providing free exhibitions to the general public.
 
With our first exhibition in 1938, the Guild introduced outdoor shows to the City of New York, in venues such as the garden of the former Guggenheim  Museum, the terrace of the International Building at Rockefeller Plaza,
Bryant Park, Lever House, the City of White Plains, Hillwood Art Museum, the New York Botanical Gardens, the Brooklyn Museum, the Architectural League of New York, and the American Museum of Natural History.
 
Traveling exhibitions have included shows circulated by the Carnegie Corporation,
American Federation of the Arts, the Board of Education of the City of New York,
and Hofstra University.
 
In recent years in support of an international and global community, the Sculptors Guild has participated in international art-fairs, such as Supermarket in Stockholm, Sweden, and Art - Köln, in Cologne, Germany. We are very excited
to have nominated several outstanding artists met in these venues, who are part of this exhibition, and we continue to strive towards an open, progressive, and universal dialogue pertaining to contemporary art practice.
 
It is with great honor, through the generous support of Governors Island Preservation and Education Corporation, that we present this exhibition to the great city of New York, a city that has culturally sustained us through the years,
our Alma mater, our place of origin.
