Judith S. Schwartz is a well-known and acclaimed craft advocate with degrees in studio art, art education and aesthetics. She headed the Sculpture in Craft Media area of NYU’s Department of Art for more than 40 years--teaching ceramics, sculpture and body adornment.
Now Professor Emeritus, she continues to write on the subject of craft media and to jury shows, both here and abroad.
Taking an eclectic approach to her own art, Dr. Schwartz is skilled at working with clay, metal, felt, and various found objects which she uses in her millinery designs. She works with embroidery and fashioned garments in unique and creative ways.
She is a graduate of the millinery certificate program at FIT and finds a relationship between millinery and ceramics. Both create shape, volume, adornment, style and when used—whether to hold food or to encase the head — provide a profound and altering experience.
