Hope Ginsburg’s project-based work is informed by curiosity about the natural world, knowledge exchange and a deep interest in materials. Her background is in sculpture and performance. She holds a BFA in Sculpture from Tyler School of Art and a Master of Science in Visual Studies from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She has exhibited her work at venues such as MoMA P.S.1, The Baltimore Museum of Art, Wexner Center for the Arts, SculptureCenter, Socrates Sculpture Park, American Fine Arts, and Kunst-Werke.  In addition, she has had solo exhibitions at CUE Art Foundation, the Julia Friedman Gallery and Parlour Projects, as well as Solvent Space in Richmond. The headquarters for her artwork, Sponge (2006-present) is located at the VCUarts Anderson Gallery. A 2011 Art Matters Fellowship enabled her to learn to scuba dive so that she could see sea-sponges firsthand. Ginsburg is Associate Professor at VCUarts in Richmond, VA, where she lives and works.
