Eric Goulder’s sculptures are a reflection of contemporary society and its contradictions. Through expressions of despair, hope, greed, and innocence, Goulder’s work examines the human spirit’s struggle for identity. Nude men, women, and babies are presented as singular forms, as well as controlled yet tangled compositions. Full of movement and life, Goulder’s figures are simultaneously beautiful, disturbing, sensual, and dramatic.
Eric Goulder was born in 1964 in Cleveland, Ohio, and attended Amherst College as well as the New York Academy of Art. Eric has had solo shows at the Forum Gallery and Spike Gallery both of New York, with the Earl McGrath Gallery Los Angeles in 2004, and has participated in numerous group exhibitions throughout the country. His work has been featured in Sculpture Review and The Washington Post. The monumental version of the artist’s work “Stasis” was unveiled at “Beyond Limits” a Sotheby’s “selling exhibition of modern and contemporary art” in Spetember 2006. “Beyond Limits” included seminal works by Henry Moore, Dale Chihuly, Jena Dubuffet, Anish Kapoor, Damien Hirst and others. Eric resides in Virginia with his wife, the artist Dana Volkert.
