About the Item

Kathleen Friedenberg began her professional career as a veterinary surgeon in England, and came to the United States, on a Thouron Scholarship, studying human and equine orthopedics at the University of Pennsylvania. Following marriage, and study at a commercial art school, she spent several years doing medical and veterinary illustrations, including illustrating three books. Sculpting began at night school, but soon became a full-time occupation. Further study with Zenos and Evangelos Frudakis resulted in a more structured and classical approach, and her veterinary background gives her unexcelled understanding of animal and movement. Horses are the favourites, in a wide range of human and animal subjects. She is actively involved with the American Academy of Equine Art, being a Vice President and Director of Exhibitions, and conducting an annual workshop of equestrian sculpture, under their auspices, at The Kentucky Horse Park, since their teaching programs began in 1992. In 2003 she taught the first of the Academy's workshops at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Veterinary Medicine at New Bolton Center. Winning the Academy's "Award of Excellence" for three consecutive years, as judged by fellow equestrian artists, was a special achievement. in 2002 and 2003, she also taught classes, in sculpture of the horse, at the Scottsdale Artist's School in Arizona. Kathleen is a member of various other art groups, including the Society of Animal Artists and the National Sculpture Society, winning numerous awards, including Medal Professional League, in New York. Her work has appeared on the cover of The Chronicle of the Horse nineteen times, and she was featured in Equine magazine in the Fall 1989 issue, Spur magazine in July/August 1996 and Kentucky House Park's magazine, "Discover Horses," Fall/Winter 2003, as well as various other publications. She was selected to appear in Daphn S. Landis' beautiful new book, "Speaking for Themselves- The Artists of Southeastern Pennsylvania."
