Anton Ginzburg is a New York-based artist who uses an array of historical and cultural references as starting points for his investigations into art's capacity to penetrate layers of the past and reflect on the contemporary experience. Born in 1974 in Leningrad, USSR, Ginzburg received a classical arts education before immigrating to the United States in 1990. He earned a BFA from Parsons The New School for Design in 1997 and MFA degree from Bard College, Milton Avery Graduate School of Arts. His art has been shown at the fifty-fourth Venice Biennale, Palais de Tokyo in Paris, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and White Columns in New York, among others.
