Deadline 31/12/13 - Call To Artists: European Glass Experience. In the frame of the European Commission Culture Programme 2007-2013, the City of Venice has obtained financing by the European Commission for the implementation of the project “E.G.E. - European Glass Experience”. The project aims at giving to glass a full acknowledgement in contemporary art and at fostering its value as an intangible cultural heritage of Europeans. E.G.E.’s partners are: the City of Venice (Italy, lead partner), the Glass Museum of Venice-Fondazione Musei Civici (Italy), Consorzio Promovetro Murano (Italy), the Finnish Glass Museum, the Spanish National Glass Foundation. Moreover, the initiative includes the participation of the following associated partners: the Smålands Museum in Sweden, the Stained Glass Museum in Cracow, Poland, and lastly the International Festival Of Glass, Stouirbridge, United Kingdom. E.G.E. project wants to focus on the great and undiscovered potential of using glass in pure art, to develop art forms primarily for aesthetics and/or intellectual purposes and not to serve some specific practical function. E.G.E. will be carried out through three travelling exhibitions of glass artworks and projects for glass artworks (sketches/rendering) realised by young artists (18 – 40 years old) selected through an announcement of competition: 40 glass artworks and 80 sketches will be selected and exhibited in Finland, Spain and Italy. The best 20 sketches will be realised by glassmakers in Murano and exhibited in Italy (Venice) during the last project exhibition. For more information, visit Website: www.egeglass.eu

CONFERENCES/MEETINGS/ SYMPOSIUMS & TALKS

*‘The Place And The Work’. North Lands Creative Glass 2014 International Conference & Master Classes. ‘The Place And The Work’ Conference will be held on Saturday 6, Sunday 7 September. Class sessions run 27 August – 4 September and 9 – 16 September. Making art works in relation to place is the focus of the North Lands Creative Glass Conference and Master Classes 2014; acknowledging how artists and their work connect to their surroundings, landscape, architecture, history and social context. We see more interactive public art, more artists responding to and working with communities. Artists are making works that respond to weather, nature or urban environments, to political discourse and social situations. It seems that some artists and public demand less autonomous disconnected sculpture favouring instead a more connected vision. We ask questions about what it means to experience remoteness, how this and being in a place away from home affect an artist’s work. What influences the particularities of a landscape can have and what it means to collaborate with artists in close proximity, to work intensively with no distractions and to embrace or reject the surroundings. What can happen when we go beyond our familiar studio environment and step outside into a bigger picture? What does it mean to be a glass specialist in this place, at this time? More details for the Classes and Conference programme will be announced shortly. Grace Macbeath. North Lands Creative Glass. Quatre Bras, Lybster. Caithness KW3 6BN. Tel: 01593 721 229.

04/03/1413/03/14. ‘Shifting Perspectives’ At North Lands Creative Glass. Cost: £850.00 (includes course fees, materials and evening meals). “There is rarely one visual experience of an image but rather a series of encounters that shift depending on how and from where the image is viewed…” Carrie Iverson and Jeremy Scidmore will use the techniques of printing and kiln formed glass to investigate these shifting perspectives creating images that do not describe a single viewpoint but are multi-layered descriptions of an object or idea. Using a scientific model of research and focused experimentation, students will learn strategies to develop new work. We will move through a series of exercises to collect, cull, produce, edit and then refine material. Processes include drawing, photography, printmaking on glass, and open-faced kiln casting of textures and found objects. Field trips around Lybster will provide inspiration while new assignments, exercises and discussions each day will build on and refine previous skills. In addition to learning printmaking for glass and glass kiln casting, students will develop research practices and strategies for refinement that can be applied to any art form. Beginners welcome. For more details please check the Website: www.northlandsglass.com or get in touch with Grace MacBeath on Tel: 01593 721 229 or Email: [email protected]

28/03/1430/03/14. Kiln-Formed Glass Vessels – At North Lands Creative Glass. Cost: £300.00 (includes course fees, materials and light lunch). Amanda Simmons will lead a three day introduction to kiln formed glass vessels using the variables that affect slumping with gravity to create ‘drop-out’ vessel forms. Amanda’s focus is very much on colour and depth of design using cameo engraving, and how different colours can be achieved by blending transparent and opaque Bullseye Glass. There will be presentations throughout the course of the development of Amanda’s work using this technique, challenging the use of colour and cameo engraved work. Amanda will give guideline firing schedules for all projects on the course and suggest starting points for larger projects. Some previous kiln formed glass experience is required. For more details please check the Website: www.northlandsglass.com or get in touch with Grace MacBeath on Tel: 01593 721 229 or Email: [email protected]

FOR HIRE/FOR SALE/LOOKING FOR.

NEWS.

*Last Ever Edition Of ‘Neues Glas/New Glass’ Goes Out! I am very sad to have to say that the last ever edition of ‘Neues Glas’ magazine has just come out. On the ‘Editorial’ page (p. 7) the long standing Editor, Uta Klotz, writes her farewell message, in which she says the following: ‘Good Bye. After Twenty-three years as Editor-In-Chief of Neues Glas/New Glass, I am bidding all of you farewell with this edition, for Ritterbach Verlag has decided to discontinue the journal. Twenty- three years are and were a long time for me personally as well as of course for studio glass, which celebrated its fiftieth anniversary last year. In the last few weeks I have been looking back on these years. Strong impressions and feelings arose, so many images of wonderful exhibitions, grandiose works, and encounters with people and glass aficionados worldwide who inspired mean and touched my heart since 1991. My thanks go to all of them, for they enriched me and my life! Already, in the pre-Christian period, the Greek philosopher Heraclitus observed: “Nothing endures but change.” A German proverb also knows, however, that every change represents a chance, and every ending a new beginning. With this in mind, I hope to stay in touch with you. If you like, call me under 00 49 221 923 1621 or write to [email protected] I look forward to seeing you again! Your Uta M. Klotz, a glass aficionada”. Website: www.neuesglas.de/neues_glas/englisch/start.asp

*Please Note!!! As much as I dislike having to do this, given the volume of work and time I have to spent, promoting, forwarding and generally circulating all of your glass news, I cannot go on as things stand. So, to this end, I have had to make the decision that from January 2014, information coming in for inclusion in the monthly news letter will remain the same, free of charge, BUT, anyone wishing me to also forward on their information and news as an individually, direct email will be charged a small flat rate fee of £5 in advance. Best wishes, AJP. Tel: 020 821 6040. Email: [email protected]

AJP New Email Address!!!! Please note that my email address will be changing at the end of this year.
