Marion Grebow is an acclaimed designer, sculptor and painter of bas relief ceramic tile. Her work is characterized by extraordinary attention to historic and natural detail, unique artistic integrity and strong commitment to the public good.
Since her first public commission in 1990 at the renowned 92nd Street Y in New York City, she has become a sought after designer of permanent large scale tile murals at leading institutions. Organizations are able to mount profitable fund raising campaigns by soliciting sponsorship of individual tiles from their supporters. The finished wall becomes an inspiring visual representation of the organization and its mission as well as a cherished work of public art.
The tile murals she has created for libraries portray the community's history, people, nature and unique character. They serve as an educational tool and an opportunity to energize a broad range of support. The sponsorship cost for a donor can start as low as $75, making participation accessible to many people. The process of creating a wall involves the community's input of ideas and stories, with the resulting finished wall as much a creation of the donors as of the artist.
The average net profit that a library wall can realize is $1,700 per square foot. The profit will vary according to what the library charges for each tile.
Grebow's work is not limited solely to donor recognition. She has been commissioned to create works of art including portraits and maps as well as major pieces used as presentation gifts to honor a person or event. She welcomes more such challenges.
