Tony Sikorski, after winning a
scholarship at the Ivy Art Institute of Graphic Design in Pittsburgh, began his
advertising career in 1963. In 1976, he started his own business and has since
created graphic designs and illustrations for numerous well-known companies
throughout the United States. In addition to his accomplishments in graphic
arts, Tony has had a love affair with the automobile for as long as he can
remember. The 1930's, Formula 1, and old racing cars have found a special place
his heart. Using corrugated cardboard as a medium, he began creating one of a
kind sculptures in 1995 and has recently been using wood as a medium. Tony's
award-winning corrugated classics have been displayed at numerous invitational
motor sports art exhibitions.
Along
with that, his ability to capture power, speed, and motion of the automobile
has resulted in sculptural commissions in both corporate and private sectors,
and his work has also earned feature presentations in Car Collector, Robb
Report, Mobilia. Automobile Magazine, AutoWeek, and Classic and Sportscar
Magazine. Notably, Classic and Sportscar magazine esteems Tony Sikorski as one
of the top 20 motoring artists of the past 20 years. The list of Tony's awards
in automobile design grew considerably in the previous decade. In 1995 and
again in 2002), he placed first at the Midwest Concours d' Elegance in
Cincinnati Ohio. The Gilmore Classic Car Museum's Concours in Gilmore,
Michigan, honored him with the Award of Excellence for three consecutive years
(1996- 998), Sikorski won the coveted John Burgess Award: Best Show at the
Daimler Chrysler Meadow Brook Historic Races.
Remembering the achievements
of the 90's and moving into further creative endeavors in this new millennium,
Tony continues to enjoy notoriety in automobile design. In May of 2000, he was
invited to the Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance Invitational Artist Exhibition
in Rochester, Michigan. Honors came again in 2001 as Tony received the
Struthers MacMinn Award: Best Show at Meadow Brook. In 2002, he won the Stanley
Wanlass "Spirit of the Automobilist" Award at Meadow Brook. Continuing in that
true "spirit of the automobilist" and still enjoying a love affair with the
automobile, Tony is currently working on new and creative projects.
