Kristin Jones and Andrew Ginzel have worked collaboratively since 1985. They have won numerous national and international awards and fellowships, and are represented in museums, galleries and architectural spaces throughout the world. Their contemplative works explore themes such as equilibrium, memory and time.

Many of their works are site-specific installations in public institutions and spaces, with major works at: the Acqario Romano in Rome, Italy; the Kunsthalle in Basel, Switzerland; the Museo D'Arte Contemporanea in Prato, Italy; and, a special installation for the USIS at the 1991 Triennale in New Delhi, India.

National installation works include: Apostasy for the 1996 Olympic Arts Festival in Atlanta; Sounding, a project for the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia (1994); and Principia, a commission from the One Percent for Art Project Program at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland (1990). In New York, Jones and Ginzel have exhibited installations for Creative Time's 42nd Street Art Project and Art in the Anchorage, P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, the New Museum and City Hall Park with the Public Art Fund. They have also created a major permanent site-specific work throughout the new Stuyvesant High School in Battery Park City.

While Jones and Ginzel are renowned for their three dimensional work which utilizes a range of materials, they have also worked in the area of performance. The artistic duo have worked alongside choreographer Chandralekha for the Next Wave Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (1995), and designed sets, lights and costumes for the David Dorfman Dance Company (1991) and the Merce Cunningham Dance Company (1989).

Jones and Ginzel have received numerous awards, including the Rome Prize from the American Academy in Rome and "The Bessie" (the New York Dance and Performance Award), as well as fellowships from the Pollock Krasner Foundation, the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, the Fulbright Scholar Program for research in India and Italy, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Cité International des Arts Residency in Paris.

Nationally, they have exhibited at the Chicago Cultural Center, Chicago, IL; The Madison Arts Center, Madison, WI; List Visual Arts Center, Massachusetts of Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA; Wadsworth Athenaeum, Hartford, CT; and, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Richmond, VA. They have consistently exhibited in galleries in New York since 1985, beginning with Barbara Flynn, and subsequently with Annina Nosei, Damon Brandt and recently with TZ'Art.
