Description: |
Art Talk Lecture Series - Studio Art Glassat Gallery North, Setauket, NY. The Studio Art Glass Exhibition is sponsored in part by the Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass.
This exhibition will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Studio Art Glass movement and will acquaint the community with the extraordinary work in that field. Included in the show will be sculptural objects, vessels and two-dimensional, wall-mounted glass pieces designed by contemporary artists and craftspeople who create abstract, conceptual and realistic images. Throughout the duration of the exhibition there will be talks with collectors who will clarify the appeal of art glass and artists who are passionate about creating in this medium.
Museums, galleries and universities across the country, will be honoring the 50th Anniversary by hosting lectures, demonstrations and other events. "The golden anniversary of American glass art is the perfect opportunity to celebrate artists nationwide and showcase exquisite glass collections, as well as introduce sculpture in glass to others through education, awareness and community" said Harlan Fischer, AACG President. "Our goal is to energize and educate about studio glass art, and we are thankful to be celebrating this art medium's first 50 years."
