BARBARA WALLACE
January 3rd- February 1st 2026
Barbara Wallace received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting from Pratt Institute and Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture from the University of Pennsylvania. She was trained by master metal workers Michael Malpass and Maurice Lowe.
As a contemporary figurative artist Barbara feels, thinks, and responds to the experiences of living in the world today. Social issues and the human figure are the main
subject matter for her sculpture. The subject matter often speaks directly to current events of social consequence. The world needs more art that is accessible to all that reflects the issues that are of importance to our survival as a species. In addition, materials and techniques that Wallace uses are specifically chosen to reflect the times that we live in.
Reduce/reuse/recycle supports her philosophy that art making needs to be responsible and accessible. Trained in metalworking, the artworks look and act like metal, while actually consisting of repurposed metal, paper, and cardboard mediums that are painted to look like metal.
