E-town College art prof included in sculpture reference

ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. – Elizabethtown College Professor of Art Milt Friedly is one of less than 300 contemporary sculptors chosen for inclusion in a new illustrated and unabridged sculpture reference.

Friedly is featured in "The Sculpture Reference," by Sculpture Books Publishing (www.SculptureBooks.com), which contains more than 1,000 color images selected from more than 16,000 submitted. He has been teaching in Elizabethtown’s Department of Fine and Performing Arts since 1987 and has served as coordinator of the art division and director of Hess Gallery since 1991. Friedly earned a bachelor of fine arts (with an emphasis on ceramics and printmaking) from Arizona State University and a master of fine arts in sculpture and printmaking from the University of Wyoming.

Friedly most recently exhibited his work at Penn State University’s Hub-Robeson Gallery, Elizabethtown’s Hess Gallery, The Community Gallery of Lancaster, Shippensburg University’s Kauffman Gallery and Lock Haven University’s Sloan Fine Arts Center. He also participated in Lebanon Valley College’s 33rd Annual Juried Exhibition, "Images 2003" at Penn State University’s Robeson Gallery, "Art in a Changing World: Northeast PA Regional Art 2002" at Marywood University’s Mahady Gallery and "In Response" at the Savannah (Ga.) College of Arts and Design.

Friedly has earned prizes at a number of shows, including an honorable mention at Fort Hays State University’s "3rd Great Plains National," a certificate of excellence at the Soho (N.Y.) International Art Competition, and the Juror’s Award at the 12th Annual All Wyoming Craft Show. He is also the past recipient of an Art in Public Places Award for the state of Wyoming.

At Elizabethtown College -- central Pennsylvania’s premier small, comprehensive college -- 1800 men and women enjoy personal attention, breadth of curriculum, experiential learning and a commitment to serving others. Elizabethtown has been ranked for 11 consecutive years by U.S. News and World Report as one of the top comprehensive colleges in the North.
