Within each category, works of art are listed chronologically. An asterisk indicates that an object is illustrated in black and white in the Checklist. Page references are to color plates. For gifts of a collection numbering more than forty objects, an overview of the contents of the collection is provided in lieu of information about each individual object. Certain gifts have been the subject of separate exhibitions with their own catalogues. In such instances, the reader is referred to the section For Further Reading.

Mold Making for Glass Art
Mold Making for Glass Art a tutorial by Dan Jenkins When Dan Jenkins retired he did not originally intend to make tools and molds for glass artists. However, his wife and friends who work in fused glass were constantly calling on the skills he developed during 30 years as a marine engineer in the Canada Navy to produce items that were needed but unavailable. He began his career on steam driven ships for which it was impossible to get parts. The engineers had to fabricate their own parts out of whatever was available to them. Dan has drawn on his knowledge of woodworking, metalworking, design, engineering and making something out of nothing. He discovered that he enjoys the challenge of designing new tools that are practical economical, and easy to use. Dan has always enjoyed teaching and spent much of his time in the navy as an instructor both at sea and onshore. Dan currently lives in Victoria B.C. with his wife, two cats, and 3 dogs. Mold Making For Glass Art by Dan Jenkins Choosing a Prototype The first projects you wish to tackle should be fairly simple because failure the first few times is Making molds for your own use or for not only possible it is probably inevitable. The reproduction is fairly easy to do and very first objects I tried to cast were self-produced satisfying. Making your own molds frees you wood blocks in the form of squares and from relying on molds made by others and triangles, simple shapes which should have allows you to tailor your mold for your own taste. -

Dino Rosin Fine Art Sculptor in Glass;
Dino Rosin Fine Art Sculptor in Glass; By Debbie Tarsitano This past January I was privileged to teach encased flamework design at the Corning Museum School’s Studio. Before traveling to Corning I looked through the course catalogue to see who else was teaching during the week I would be there. There was the name, “Dino Rosin,” and his class “solid sculpture.” As I looked at the small photo of his work in the Corning catalogue, I thought to myself, “I wished I could take his class.” That lone picture in the Corning catalogue told me that here was an artist who understood the true meaning of sculpture. Dino Rosin was born in Venice, Italy on May 30, 1948 and his family moved to the island of Murano while he was still a baby. At age 12 Dino left school to work as an apprentice at the prestigious Barovier and Toso glassworks. In 1963 at age 15, Dino joined his older brothers Loredano and Mirco in their own glass studio “Artvet.” Two years later Loredano and Dino joined Egidio Costantini of Fucina Degli Angeli; while working at this renowned studio, Dino and Loredano collaborated with Picasso and other well-known artists of the time. In 1975, Loredano Rosin opened his own studio and Dino, then aged 27, joined his brother’s new venture, supporting him whole-heartedly. Dino progressed and matured as an artist as he worked alongside his brother Loredano to keep the studio strong. Dino perfected his skills in every area of the studio from mixing batch, the raw materials of glass making, to creating new designs. -

3D Printing Processes Applied to the Creation of Glass Art
Journal of International Education and Leadership Volume 5 Issue 1 Spring 2015 http://www.jielusa.org/ ISSN: 2161-7252 3D Printing Processes Applied to the Creation of Glass Art Morgan Chivers University of Texas, Arlington It should be noted at the beginning of this paper that the motivations behind making the works detailed herein might not be readily apparent. The purpose of this article, however, is to present a few of the innovative techniques used in the execution of my sculptural work, not on the content of the work itself. In the works presented below, my interest has been in merging the methodologies and precise output control of 3D printing with finished objects in non- printable materials as required by the conceptual structure of my sculpture. Without devoting the requisite space to fully explain the ideation of the work, I will attempt to provide the reader with enough of the idea that the object is not an enigma. I have been interested for some time in making funerary art. In early 2013, I produced a life-size cast glass replica of the headstone commemorating the lives of the common ancestors I share with my matrilineal family members still living in rural Wales (Figure 1).

Understanding Firing Schedules
Understanding Firing Schedules Learn about the components of a glass fi ring schedule so you can create your own schedule for any project you want to try. BASICS – Ramp - Temperature - Hold HEATWORK – Time/Temperature Tango. COE – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. VISCOSITY – how it aff ects fi ring schedules. THICKNESS– how it aff ects fi ring schedules PREDICTION - ending accidents. ANNEALING – how and why EVENIVITY– the magic word. VOLUME CONTROL SPECIAL SCHEDULES for special eff ects. My Personal Promise The temperatures and times I refer to here for fi ring schedules are not guesswork and are not copied from comments of others. There are the result of 40 years working as a glass artisan and over 20,000 kiln fi rings. I made it a point to do comparison tests to rigid standard. Some of those tests are included in chapters here.

Baltic Glass the Development of New Creative Models Based on Historical and Contemporary Contextualization
Vesele, Anna (2010) Baltic Glass The development of new creative models based on historical and contemporary contextualization. Doctoral thesis, University of Sunderland. Downloaded from: http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/3659/ Usage guidelines Please refer to the usage guidelines at http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/policies.html or alternatively contact [email protected]. Baltic Glass The development of new creative models based on historical and contemporary contextualization Anna Vesele A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Sunderland for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts, Design and Media, University of Sunderland April 2010 1 Abstract The aim of this research was to demonstrate the creative potential of a particular type of coloured flat glass. This glass is produced in Russia and is known as Russian glass. The present researcher has refined methods used by Baltic glass artists to create three- dimensional artworks. The examination of the development of glass techniques in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania was necessary in order to identify these methods and to contextualize the researcher’s personal practice. This study describes for the first time the development of glass art techniques in the Baltic States from the 1950s to the present day. A multi-method approach was used to address research issues from the perspective of the glass practitioner. The methods consisted of the development of sketches, models and glass artworks using existing and unique assembling methods. The artworks underlined the creative potential of flat material and gave rise to a reduction in costs. In conjunction with these methods, the case studies focused on the identification of similarities among Baltic glass practices and similarities of approach to using various glass techniques.
