Historical Context

For over 40 years, Sculpture Space has been inviting artists from around the world to work in their studio in Utica, New York.  Many of these artists have created work that has gone on to be shown worldwide, influencing their careers and creative process for years.  Sculpture Space has kept detailed alumni records since 1979, but between 1976 and 2012, Sculpture Space relied solely on paper records to record its alumni history.  After a major fire in 2014, the decision was made to turn to digital.

Scope of Collection

This collection contains five artists and their portfolios to be artist-in-residence at Sculpture Space.  Allowing the community to discover these artists and how the Utica region influenced them.
