*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

Annie Cattrell has been a tutor at the Royal College of Art since 2000 and has lectured in numerous other art colleges. Her work looks at the relationship between art, science and the poetic and has led her to partnerships with specialists in neuroscience, meteorology, engineering and psychology. Luke Jerram works internationally and across all media to realise his ideas, often working with specialist teams of scientists, engineers and craftsmen. Projects include a global street piano installation, Play Me I’m Yours, encouraging people to stop in their tracks and play, Glass Microbiology – beautiful structures of viruses and Sky Orchestra (hot air balloons flying over various cities with speakers playing music). In his practice and academic research Andrew Lacey draws on the renaissance and is influenced by the historical and archaeological discoveries he makes through his research. Colin Reid has been working with glass since the 1980s constantly finding new ways to work with this fragile material and taking it to its extreme to create pieces which are majestic and magical. His innovation has given him the cutting edge in kiln-cast glass and international recognition for his inspirational work.

*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.

*Prizes Galore At The Contemporary Glass Society Conference! Five lucky people were winners of stunning glass prizes for the first ever C.G.S. Fundraising Raffle. Glass prizes by some of the UK’s most admired Artists were drawn at the C.G.S. Conference in October. The prizes included stunning artwork by Colin Reid, Peter Layton, ‘Gillies · Jones’ (Stephen Gillies & Kate Jones) and Amanda Simmons, with an original signed drawing by David Reekie. The prize draw caused quite a stir, and there was one winner who was right there to receive her prize – Katharine Coleman M.B.E., who won Colin Reid’s sculpture. An emotional Katharine said “I am greatly moved by Colin’s generosity and astonished by my good fortune. I am still feeling shell-shocked every morning when I walk into our living room and see this incredible piece of glass!” The other winners were: Zoe Sawyers, who won Gillies · Jones’ piece; Su Herbert - Amanda Simmons; Alexandra Archbold – Peter Layton and Jessie Lee – David Reekie’s signed drawing. The raffle raised nearly £3,000.00, and was the first of its kind for the C.G.S. Activities like this form a crucial part of the organization’s funding strategy, and help sustain core C.G.S. activities such as the website, magazine and member services. The raffle was the concluding event in the hugely popular international conference, Glass Skills: Exploring The Fusion Of Art And Technique, staged in partnership with the National Glass Centre at the University Of Sunderland.

Glass Skills: Exploring The Fusion Of Art And Technique is part of the C.G.S. Glass Skills 2013 programme – a whole year of exhibitions, events and workshops that highlight the part glassmakers play in keeping ancient skills alive, and in adapting them to create innovative and original art for today.
