“Ginger Andro and Chuck Glicksman are married and have been working as an artist team and since 2000. They have created over 45 multi-sensory installations for galleries, museums and universities in the U.S. and abroad. As a result of a difficult time that included life threatening illness, Ginger and Chuck brought together their individual art practices and created an installation about healing and rebirth, entitled “Tide Pool”, which evolved into a collaboration that is the primary focus of their work today. They often describe their art work as their progeny. Although the subject of their collaborations range from meditative interpretations of place to social and political observation, the roots of their pieces are always autobiographical. From Ginger’s dimensional painting and sculptural constructions, fabrication and natural perfumery and Chuck’s experimental filmmaking, video and multi-media production experience they bring together sculptural forms of hand-cut Plexi mirror, fabric, wood, mixed media and ready mades with multi-channel video projections, sound and original scent. By using projection, reflection and shadow play their works are immersive and participatory multi-sensory installations that envelop and elicit strong visceral responses from their viewers. Their work is an attempt to bring about an exchange of ideas and question perception by engaging the senses through scent, sound and sight. Ginger Andro studied painting with Alan Siegel and sculpture with Vyto Kasuba, and continued to study at The School of Visual Arts, Parsons and the New School in New York. She was the gallery director at East Coast Arts and curator/co-founder of Group 29 in NYC. She has taught at The College of Mt. St. Vincent, Seton Academy, The Art School at Old Church and St.Thomas Aquinas College, and she holds certifications in natural perfumery and aromatherapy. Chuck Glicksman studied film with Ken Jacobs, Saul Levine and Larry Gottheim at The State University of New York at Binghamton, earning a B.A. in cinematography. He studied sculpture with Nat Kaz at the Arts Students League, and he continued study at the School of Visual Arts and Parsons. His work experience includes being a co-founder of Group 29 and twenty years as a producer/director of multi-media events.Solo and Two Person Exhibitions2024 “Colossus” Olfactory Art Keller, curator, Andreas Keller, New York, NY 2023 “Via Brooklyn Bridge” Olfactory Art Keller, curator, Andreas Keller, New York, NY 2015 “The Pursuit of Perfection” BAU, Beacon, NY2013 “SKUed” Sculptors Guild GalleryBrooklyn, NY2012 “Where the Ocean Meets the Shore”, ROCA curator: Lynn Stein, Nyack, NY 2011 “Under the Microscope”, ROCA curator: Lynn Stein, Nyack, NY “Catskill Serenade”, Barker Studio curator: Sarah Barker, Catskill, NY 2010 “Greenhouse Glass”, Hunterdon Art Museum, “ curator: Marjorie Nathanson, Clinton, NJ2007 “Bitter-Sweet” Vassar College curator: Ann Pike Tay Ph.D., Poughkeepsie, NY “On the Beach”, LBI Foundation for Arts and Sciences, Loveladies, NJ2005 “Notes from Newark”, City Without Walls curators: Ginger Andro/Chuck Glicksman, Newark, NJ, 2003. “Earth, Sand, and Water”, Montclair State Univ. curator: Teresa Rodriguez, Montclair, NJSelected Group Exhibits2024 ‘Sculpture” Paul Larsen Gallery, curator, Paul Larsen, Saddle River, NJ2023 “The Bridge Project” CICA Museum, Gimpo, So.
