Two of his works – “Winter Landscape” and “Sunflower” adorned the office of US President John F. Kennedy in the White House. J. Gnizdowski’s works are presented in numerous museums and private collections around the world, including the Library of Congress (Washington), the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston), the Museum of Art of Philadelphia, and the collection of Nelson Rockefeller. In the 1990s, the artist’s widow, Stefania Gnizdovska, donated a number of the master’s works to museums in Kyiv, Lviv, Ternopil, Ivano-Frankivsk and Chernivtsi. Several samples of his graphics are stored in the Borshchiv Regional Museum of Local Lore.
