SGW Collections Details
Embodied in the SGW Collections are the visual collaborative efforts of Sam Glankoff's art and Wendy Snyder's curatorial eye for design. As an artist herself, trained as a weaver and later filmmaker and photographer, Wendy Snyder's deep understanding of Glankoff's boldly graphic shapes, sophisticated color palate and painterly multi-layered surfaces form the core of the SGW collection.The SGW Collections' desire is to "Spread the Beauty", bringing the art of this master American Modernist to life by creating affordable Archival Reproductions of Glankoff's original art, and Rugs, Carpets, Fabrics, Wallpaper, Murals and Tiles, based upon Wendy Snyder's photographic studies of Glankoff's painterly surfaces.Wendy Snyder, director, curator and archivist of the Sam Glankoff Estate, worked closely with Sam Glankoff for the last (four) years of his life, studying his methods, recording their conversations, and filming him in his small one-room apartment-studio on East 33rd Street in New York. Ultimately, and with his reticent permission, she curated Glankoff's critically acclaimed first solo exhibition in New York, in 1981. That same year Sam Glankoff surprised her, by altering his signature SG imprint, adding a "W" for "Wendy", to his penultimate works.
