About Sam Spiczka

Inspired by natural bone forms, rural technology, and geometric structure, Sam Spiczka has produced a distinctive body of work that is both modern and intensely primal, public yet deeply personal.

Born and raised in rural Minnesota, Spiczka became captivated by metal early on through the experience of working at his family’s welding shop. Though he briefly studied art and philosophy at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, MN, his true education has come from Nature, the example of past sculptors, and the craftsmanship of his father. His award winning sculptures have been exhibited internationally – including at the Seolbong International Sculpture Park in Icheon,South Korea, the DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park in Lincoln, Massachusetts, and Franconia Sculpture Park in Taylor’s Fall, MN – and can be found in many public and private collections.
