In his sculptures and installations, Anton Ginzburg uses an array of historical and cultural references as starting points for his investigations of art’s capacity to penetrate layers of the past. He constructs lines of memory and imagination, whether collective or individual, and traces them to points of intersection. Anton Ginzburg was born in Leningrad (St.Petersburg), Russia in 1974, where he received a classical art education in preparation for the Soviet academy.

He emigrated to the United States in 1990, and earned a BFA from the Parsons School of Design in 1997. His works have been shown at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, White Columns, and the first and second Moscow Biennales. His art is represented in the permanent collections of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Moscow Museum of Modern Art and the Tretyakov Gallery as well as private collections.

Anton Ginzburg lives and works in New York.
