Shula Koenig's Exhibition of Sculptures Opens at ET Modern Gallery 6/2

Shula Koening  Exhibition of Sculptures

In 1982, in an old farm up Upstate New York, Shulamith Koenig found a trove of foundry wooden patterns and molds, hand carved by artists over a century ago. These were immigrants applying their artistic passion to making a living, contributing to the foundation of industry in the United States. Keeping these patterns intact Shulamith places them in her sculpture, highlighting the dignity of these unknown artists, giving them life in works of art. The products made with these molds are long gone but in their unaltered form in Shulamith's sculpture, their beauty will never be obsolete.
