Ethel Rosenfield
Ethel Rosenfield (1910 – 2000) was a Polish-born Canadian sculptor who immigrated to Montreal, moving to Toronto in 1978.
After enrolling in art classes in her mid-forties, Rosenfield began working primarily in limestone and marble, exploring "organic forms, abstract or schematized, the latter representing faces and female bodies".
Rosenfield co-founded the Quebec Sculptors' Association in 1962, and her work was exhibited at the Rodin Museum, Expo 67, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, and multiple Canadian universities. Her sculptures are held in permanent collections at Concordia University, the Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal, and the Storm-King Art Centre among others.
In her later years, Ethel approached Beckett Fine Art to be her sole art dealer. Beckett Fine Art continues to be the dealer for her estate works.
