From St. Petersburg Times - Sept. 12, 1975: The Greek-born sculptor Erik Pitsokos received his art education in Greece, Italy and Canada. He immigrated to Canada in 1964 and became a Canadian citizen. In Canada he had an art school adjacent to his studio where he took only accomplished artists for highly advanced instruction in the finer points of sculpture. His entry at the International symposium of Arts held in Washington, D.C. in 1969 won him the first award for sculpture. He exhibited throughout Canada and his works have been donated to the purchased by individuals, galleries, public buildings and schools in Canada. He moved to the United States in 1975, became an American citizen and taught classes at the Florida Gulf Coast Art Center. Erik Pitsokos
