Join us for an Artist Talk by Tony Moore and Heinrich Spillmann on Sunday, June 28 from 2-3pm.

Tony Moore is an English-American sculptor and painter represented in international museum collections including the Guggenheim Museum, Brooklyn Museum, Greenville Museum, San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts, Woodstock Artists Association & Museum, Art Museum of the U. of Memphis and ASU Art Museum, US and the Yorkshire Museum and Derby Museum, UK. He received an MFA in Sculpture from Yale University and is the recipient of prestigious awards, including a Louis Comfort Tiffany Award, CAPS Grant and Sally and Milton Avery Fellowship.

In 1998, after 25 years of making sculptures and paintings in New York City, Moore relocated his home and studio to the scenic Hudson River Valley near Cold Spring, NY where on a mountain top property he built a spacious studio, gallery and Japanese style Anagama-Noborigama wood-fire kiln. His unique ceramic sculptures are fired in the kiln four times a year in weeklong communal events.

Born in Switzerland, Heinrich Spillmann came to New York City in 1979 with an exchange program from the Basel School of Design to The Cooper Union Art School.

In New York he met his wife and together they started Evelyn Sherwood Designs. They designed a wide variety of interior and graphics projects for restaurant and retail clients. In the early 1990’s they relocated to Germany but returned to Brooklyn NY in 2000. Here Heinrich directed design and renovation projects for the Brooklyn Public Library over the past 20 years.

During his involvement in design and architecture Heinrich maintained his own art practice. This allowed him to exhibit a variety of furniture and art projects over the years in New York and Switzerland.

Ligenza Moore Gallery and Sculpture Garden is located at 78 Trout Brook Rd in Cold Spring, NY.
