For over three decades, Oxman’s work has been commissioned for public spaces and major private collections across the country.

Oxman’s artistry has been called upon across three presidential administrations. He has created official presidential gifts for dozens of world leaders, including a stainless-steel dove sculpture perched atop a section of iron from the original structure of the Statue of Liberty, presented by President Barack Obama to Pope Francis during a historic 2015 visit.
