Bruce Hoffman

Bruce Hoffman is Director of Gravers Lane Gallery in Philadelphia. He has been working in the field of studio crafts for more than three decades. During these years he has taught at Moore College of Art & Design, lectured and been a guest critic for many colleges, and has had the honor to jury shows for many fine museums, guilds, and art centers across the country.

Fiber and textile-centric art has been a main focus. Along with five friends, Bruce created and curated Fiber Philadelphia 2012. This four-month event showcased 61 exhibits of fiber throughout the city. Bruce has a historical understanding of studio crafts as well as an appreciation of artists' work and process. This guides his curatorial choices while enjoying the visceral delight of material, color, form, and texture.
