Robert DuGrenier is a well-known sculptor, artist, and designer working primarily in glass, metal, and marble. Much of his work is informed by nature and its effects over time on a variety of elements. Robert worked on the redesign of the flame for the Statue of Liberty and was commissioned to create and produce the 1/12th scale model from which the French artisans sculpted the new flame.
In 2018, DuGrenier was inducted into the Illinois State University’s College of Fine Arts Hall of Fame in Normal, Illinois, nearly forty years after receiving a Masters of Fine Arts degree there. He first trained as a glassblower and goldsmith at Philadelphia College of Art and Hornsey College of Art in London, and then earned an M.F.A. in sculpture at Illinois State University. His studio is in Townshend, Vermont.
