Join us for today’s Habatat-Zoom. We last exhibited artist Mike da Ponte's work at the Pop and Lock Exhibition in 2019 during the Glass International. Da Ponte is February's Not Grandma's Glass (NGG) presenter and I am honored to have him join us to speak about his life, work, and career. His life began with his adoption. This experience eventually led to him discovering a personal balance between who he was and who he is today. This event is happening today at 1:00 p.m. ET! Visit the URL in our bio and select Virtual Presentation to find the RSVP/Join link. #joinus #NGG2023 #glass

In her 50-year career, Wolff repeatedly created works that made people think. With glass, she allowed the world to glance at her esthetic sentimentality, and she also created homogenous objects. Ever recurring themes predominant in her work are womanhood and habitation expressed through objects that are mostly monochrome, often in warm earthy tones. Dance-theater was a strong inspiration, and she was allowed to attend rehearsals with Pina Bausch, made views from what she saw there and then formed glass objects.

Making a martini glass🌟

I’m frustrated with those short intriguing process video so I made mine the whole process!
I still edited down a lot and usually takes about 15min to make one.

I hope you can relax and watch when you have some time✨

Thanks always for productive day @emilyjean_ ❤️

It may look easy but my shoulders are still feeling it. 105 lbs, 32” x 22” casting; this is the rough grind to remove kiln texture and prepare for polishing.

Pioneer Spotlight 🔦

Marvin Lipofsky was an American glass artist who was born in 1938 in Chicago, Illinois. He is known as one of the pioneers of the Studio Glass Movement and is considered one of the most influential figures in the world of contemporary glass art.

Lipofsky's interest in glass started when he took a glassblowing class at the University of California, Berkeley. He was so captivated by the medium that he decided to pursue a career
as a glass artist. In 1965, he founded the glass program at the University of California, Berkeley and went on to teach at several institutions, including the Rhode Island School of Design, the California College of Arts and Crafts, and the Pilchuck Glass
School.

Lipofsky's influence on the Studio Glass Movement cannot be overstated. He is credited with bringing the medium of glass into the realm of fine art and paving the way for a new generation
of glass artists. He was one of the first glass artists to work outside of traditional glassmaking techniques, experimenting with new forms and techniques and pushing the boundaries of what was possible with glass.

One of Lipofsky's most notable contributions to the Studio Glass Movement was his use of the "off-hand" technique, which involved manipulating the glass while it was still hot, allowing
the artist to create unique, organic forms that were not possible with traditional glassmaking techniques. This technique is now widely used by glass artists around the world.

Lipofsky's work is characterized by its simplicity, elegance, and playful nature. He was known for creating pieces that were both functional and sculptural, and his work continues to inspire glass artists and collectors today.

Pioneer Spotlight 🔦

Erwin Eisch is a German glass artist who has had a significant impact on the modern glass art movement. He was born in 1929 in Frauenau, Germany and is considered one of the pioneers of Studio Glass, a term used to describe the use of glass as a medium for fine art.

Eisch's work is characterized by his use of a variety of techniques, including blowing, casting, and sandblasting. He was one of the first artists to experiment with sandblasting, a process that involves using a stream of abrasive particles to create textures and patterns on the surface of the glass. This technique became one of the defining elements of his style and has since been adopted by many other artists working in the field.
Eisch's work is also notable for its exploration of color and light. He was one of the first artists to work with colorless glass, which he used to create intricate and delicate pieces that play with light in interesting ways. His work often has a sense of fragility and transparency, and his use of color is subtle and nuanced.

In addition to his contributions to the field of glass art, Eisch is also known for his influence on the broader art world. He has been a teacher and mentor to many artists and has helped to establish the Studio Glass movement as a legitimate art form. He has also been an advocate for the integration of glass into the world of fine art, and his work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and museums around the world.

See his work at our Pioneer Exhibition @ Glass Coast Weekend in Sarasota Florida February 23-26th
