Claire Lieberman is a sculptor and installation artist who combines such unexpected materials as marble, Jell-O, and video.

Group shows at: Chelsea Art Museum, International Print Center, NYC; Galerie ACC, Weimar, Germany and Pulse NY.

Lieberman’s work has been written about in whitehot magazine, The New York Times, ARTnews and Sculpture magazine. Her sculpture and prints are published in the book Camouflage (Imperial War Museum, London, and Thames and Hudson).

The artist’s toy guns in glass will be shown at the MUDAC Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland in spring 2018.
