And that is what smalti is – glass powder made into a paste, then poured out, pressed and fired to become vitreous enamel. Smalti begins as a round pizza, about 3/8” thick. From there, it can be cut into any size. di Mosacio stocks pizzas as well as two sizes of traditional smalti: The Normal cut, aka “A” cut, is what most artists are familiar with. The normal cut shows the interior of the pizza and colors are very uniform from piece to piece. The normal cut is used with the riven, or cut edge up. This produces the traditional smalti look with light glinting off of the cut faces. The Ravenna cut, aka “B” cut, is generally a square or rectanglular shape. You also get the irregular edges of the pizza. The Ravenna cut shows the face of the pizza so you can expect some variety in the color patterns. www.dimosaico.com Smalti Facts We also stock two other types of smalti: Piastrina which has a flat surface and is Contorni is also flat but even thinner at 1/8” about 3/16” thick . It is also cut in very thick. Contorni is typically used to outline regular, square shapes and is similar in size shapes in a mosaic. to manufactured vitreous glass tiles Besides the opaque smalti we also stock transparent smalti, called “trasparenti” in Italian. Trasparenti is available in all the same sizes and cuts as opaque smalti. The following table provides guidelines for sizes and quantities for the various cuts of smalti: Length Width Thickness Pieces per ½ lb Lbs per SF Normal 5/8” 3/8” 1/4” 90-100 3 Ravenna 1”-3” 1”-3” 3/8” Varies 4-5 Piastrina 3/4" 3/4” 3/16” 90-95 2-3/4 Pizza 10” – 13” in diameter 3/8” About 1/8 pizza 4-5 Contorni ~3/4” ~3/4” 1/8” 1/4 lb will outline 90 linear inches www.dimosaico.com Smalti We stock all 291 colors in normal cut.

    Lighting and Byzantine Glass Tesserae

    EVA London Conference ~ 11–13 July 2007 Eva Zányi, Carla Schroer, Mark Mudge, and Alan Chalmers _____________________________________________________________________ LIGHTING AND BYZANTINE GLASS TESSERAE Eva Zányi†, Carla Schroer‡, Mark Mudge‡, Alan Chalmers† † Warwick Digital Laboratory University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7AL United Kingdom [email protected], [email protected] http://www.warwickdigital.org ‡ Cultural Heritage Imaging San Francisco USA [email protected], [email protected] http://www.c-h-i.org Abstract – A key component of many Byzantine churches was the mosaics on the curved walls and ceilings, which included gold and silver glass tesserae. As the viewer or the light moved within the church, these tesserae sparkled. In this paper we describe how we captured a Polynomial Texture Map of the apse mosaic at the Angeloktisti Church at Kiti, Cyprus and used it to investigate how the position of the lighting may have affected the appearance of the mosaic. Our study showed that the appearance of the mosaics is indeed significantly different when lit from various directions. INTRODUCTION From the outside Byzantine churches look unimposing; without much decoration, no paint or precious materials. This is very different to the interior, which provided those inside the space with dramatic visual affects aiming at alleviating and engaging the viewer to approach God [14]. The architecture used light and shadow to symbolically represent different sacral hierarchies and direct the attention of the viewer. Therefore the upper parts of the churches, which represented heaven, were better lit than the lower parts. In early Byzantium this was achieved with the help of daylight through small xxxx Figure 1.

Each student is assigned a workstation equipped with its own workspace and torch. Each workspace has all the tools she/he needs, including: steel spindles or needles, safety glasses, pan pot of graphite, flat pliers to shape the glass, vermiculite to cool beads, etc. In addition, many glass rods of many different colors. The number of students per class is limited to 8. This allows the instructor a personalized evaluation, constant feedback and instructions. During the course, students will learn about tools for beads design and creation, most of glass fusion techniques, from the project to the professional production of the beads, designing jewelry, and strategy of sales. On the 3rd of December, students will visit the Glass Museum in Murano.

REQUIREMENTS For this course no requirements are asked.
  • Authentication

    Authentication

    AUTHENTICATION 1. LOGO Authentication starts with a logo. No logo, no Montici. True, Blow issued a limited number of mosaic pieces with no logo between the start of his mosaic career circa 1947 and the creation of the first Montici logo in 1951. But the odds are against finding such early pieces on the market. Pyramids and Dots On May 25, 1951, Blow registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office his famous, classic black- and-white “two-triangle” logo, Blow had impeccable style and taste, right down to his choice of material for his tiny, signature logo. These original logos were made out of legendary Murano glass from Venice, called murino in Italian. Per Lastrucci, the glass came out of the fire in the form of aa tube; the tube was then sliced into individual logos. According to scholars, Venetians have been making glass for over 1,500 years, and on the Venetian island of Murano since the 13th century. In addition to the original 1951 Logo, Blow also created and used a second logo, a stylized letter “M” with a white dot on top. This dot logo was registered in Italy on Feb. 23, 1956. Why he created a second logo is an interesting story, shared with our sister Rosemary by maestro Bruno Lastrucci. At some point in the 1950s, the workshop ran out of logos, due to the exploding demand for Blow’s art pieces. While impatiently waiting for the reorder from Venice, Blow created the second logo to fill the gap. The simple dot ended up as a “cap” when translated into material.

The author never left the Crystal Palace without passing by the table, which always excited fresh admiration. There. were two other mosaics, much laTger than the former, and different in style, that were remarkably fine specimens of workmam;hip: one was a copy of a celebrated picture, . by Guercino,-a St. John the Baptist; and the other a portrait of Pope Boniface the Second. A circular table, a square slab, and a picture represent­ ing a view of P:;estum, were likewise 'among the Roman mosaics in the London Exhibition. Dr. Chilton, of New York, has a beautiful Roman mosaic of the Pantheon, about three inches long. In the New York Exhibition, in 1853, the large pic­ ture of Pope Pia IX., in medallion size, was much ad­ mired. In the Paris Exhibition, in 1855, many large wOTksof Roman mosaics were exhibited; one in particular, belong­ ing to the Duke of Tuscany, required the constant work of fourteen years, and cost 700,000 francs. A large table in the rotU11da of the panorama, of rich and elegant Roman mosaic, cost 400.,000 ii'anes. The famous picture of the' Campo-vacino, in Rome, by Galand, cost the artist ten years' labor. Fietra dura, also' called Florentine mosaic, consists in the manufacture of hard stone inlaid in a slab of marble; they are, for the most part, of the quartz species, such as agates, jasper, chalcedony, carnelian, &c.; also, lapis lazuli, malachite, and aHsuch hard and colored minerals which, by their depth of color and brilliancy of lustre largely con· .

EBENEZER KOFI HOWARD ……………… ………… (HEAD OF DEPARTMENT) SIGNATURE DATE ii ABSTRACT Mosaic art has been practiced all over the world and generally in two dimensional forms. The main objective of this project is to depict Clay beads mosaic in a three dimensional form for better appreciation and artistic grandeur in clay medium. Inspired by the wisdom of the Egret bird, a design was developed to produce a thought- provoking piece titled “Wisdom Bead Mosaic”. This work was achieved through design thinking, systematic procedure and a tandem of artistic skills and studio practice. The materials used were clay, iron rods and binding wire. The nine (9) feet work provided stimuli among both artist and non-artist. It became evidently clear that mosaic art can be expressively executed in three dimensional and be a resource for beautifying the environment.

    Application for Mosaic Leadership Scholarship a Mosaic Is Anything Made up of Various and Unique Elements That Together Forms a Single Composite Whole

    Application for Mosaic Leadership Scholarship A mosaic is anything made up of various and unique elements that together forms a single composite whole. A mosaic consists of different textures, colors, shapes, and sizes–each one beautiful, valuable, and representing something that is an irreplaceable and essential part of the whole. Through the Mosaic Leadership Scholarship, North Park Theological Seminary (NPTS) supports the vision of the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC) which values becoming a church that is anchored in the multi- cultural, multi-ethnic diversity of the kingdom of God. Mosaic Leadership Scholarships are designed to support leaders, with multi-cultural or multi-ethnic backgrounds, who desire to become further equipped through theological education, in order to strengthen the mosaic tapestry of the Church. Mosaic Leadership Scholarships recognize men and women who have demonstrated, through previous leadership (in ministry, community, career, civic, or pastoral contexts) the potential for significantly expanded and more effective work and ministry in the church and/or society. Mosaic Leadership Scholarships are offered to degree-seeking students as part of a financial aid award package. Financial aid awards assume a personal financial investment and the opportunity for the student to benefit from the Church Matching Grant program. Evangelical Covenant students applying for the Mosaic Leadership Scholarship may also be eligible to apply for a Presidential Scholarship. Mosaic Leadership Scholarships are offered to a limited
