Glass Art® September/October 2024

Volume 39 - Issue 5

The September/October 2024 issue of Glass Art® is a bountiful harvest of beauty, artistry and technique. Kathleen Elliot enlightens us with Peter Bremers adventures in kiln cast glass, where the magic of light and texture interact in a playful and compelling dance. Marcie Davis’ Flower Power follows the blossoming artistic journey of Jason Gamrath, whose enormous blown glass orchids are often larger than the artist himself! The Stained Glass Association of America invites us all to their upcoming annual conference, Sand to Sash, packed with classes, workshops and excitement in Kansas City, October 2-6, 2024. And you’ll want to savor (and save!) Glass Art’s annual Directory of Industry Supplies, an essential resource for all that you do! Sara Sally LaGrand shares the work of flameworker Emma Bourke, who’s diminutive clear blown vessels often mimic human organs and contain dainty sculpted flowers representing medicinal plants which support the health of those very organs! The Staff of the Corning Museum of Glass wants you to breathe in the scent of past and present with their upcoming exhibit, Sensorium: Stories of Glass and Fragrance, where the history of perfume bottles across and globe and through the ages will be displayed. Melissa Thomson challenges you to Channel Your Inner Blaschka and take advantage of the opportunity to enter a piece in Pittsburgh Glass Center’s upcoming Glass Lifeform exhibit. (Deadline November 1st, 2024.) The American Glass Guild’s Amy Valuck discusses the impact their organization has had on restoration & conservation techniques in stained glass, and how their annual conference is instrumental in making this happen. ISGB member Karen Sweezy presents a recap of the fourth virtual Gathering of beadmakers worldwide, where presenters, demonstrators, and even a Flame Off brought artists together online.
