Vincent Glinsky (1895-1975) was born in Russia in 1895 and immigrated to America as a young man. There he underwent formal training at the Beaux Art Institute in New York. After receiving a Guggenheim Fellowship, Glinsky left America to settle in Italy, and following that, in France, where he was accorded a one-man show.
Returning to America during the height of the Great Depression, Glinsky found work as a WPA artist, and also as an architectural artist. As his reputation grew, so did his following, and throughout his career Glinsky was sought out as a master teacher. He eventually served on the faculties of Columbia University, New York University and Brooklyn College.
Trained in the high classical practice, Glinsky does work that is not concerned with passing fashions, but rather with the time honored traditions of sculpting.
