Sculptors Guild

Signatories to the original corporation papers (Sculptors Guild, Inc.) were Sonia Gordon Brown, Berta Margoulies, Aaron Goodelman, Chaim Gross (who became the first President), Minna Harkavy, Milton Horn, Concetta Scaravaglione, Warren Wheelock, and William Zorach.

The founders, who were at the forefront of American Modernism, stated their primary objective in an early exhibition catalogue: "to unite sculptors of all progressive aesthetic tendencies into a vital organization."

In September 2016, they moved into an office space on the second floor at the Renee and Chaim Gross Foundation, in Greenwich Village at 256 LaGuardia Place, New York, NY 10012 and continue to have summer exhibitions on Governors Island.

The Sculptors Guild has a presence on New York's historic Governors Island, with annual indoor and outdoor exhibitions, carving workshops and gallery talks.

Sculpture of Freedom was the fourth group exhibition of the Sculptor's Guild held in 1942 on a roof terrace at Rockefeller Center overlooking St. Patrick's Cathedral in Midtown Manhattan.

A New York Times review highlighted the selection of artists from United States, Canada, Europe, and Latin America, and artwork by Henry Moore and Jacques Lipschitz.

The exhibit was organized and curated by the Sculptors Guild, and the press release spoke of the artists landscaping and transforming the site into a miniature Versailles Garden.
