AUCTIONS INCLUDING CONTEMPORARY GLASS.

04/10/14: Charity Auction in 2014 for Bild-Werk Frauenau. An exciting Day for Art! The international reputation of the Summer Academy sessions run by Bild-Werk Frauenau for over a quarter of a century is legendary. The unique recipe for success is the creative vitality found in the Frauenau Art Summer: It's the enthusiasm, the cross-border co-operation and improvisational spirit that distinguishes this endeavor, together with the range of creativity, techniques and potentials that are brought by artists from Europe and all over the world to the Glassmakers Village of Frauenau. Art donations donated by the family of 250 internationally renowned artists who have taught in Bild-Werk Frauenau will now support the continued running of the institution which, as a non-profit organization, is not publicly subsidized. On October 4, 2014, therefore, the next big charity auction rises for the summer academy Bild-Werk Frauenau: The works of art that will be auctioned are as colourful as Bild-Werk itself, and they will come from east and west, from Europe and from overseas, and they will reflect the crossover within the Academy of the medium glass with painting and graphics, with sculpture and with mixed media. Collectors are invited of course, as well as all those interested and curious people who want to experience an exciting day at Bild-Werk Frauenau, with fresh art that enriches our daily lives, with many attending artists and friends of Bild-Werk, with music and stories - and with the opportunity to support a center of vitality and humanity in art and glass in its very existence! From the end of August a detailed auction catalog will be sent upon request, as well as being on-line. The auction, with auctioneer Dr. Joachim Haas of the Artists Association Schweinfurt, will take place in the Academy building Tom 's Hall in Frauenau on 4th October 2014 . Written bids and bidding by telephone are possible. Works of art, in all mediums, will be auctioned live, but there is no excuse if you are unable to attend in person because the opportunity to assist Bild-Werk by making a purchase still exists with a telephone bid. Please keep an eye out for Auction News on the Bild-Werk website: www.bild-werk-frauenau.de . Bild-Werk Frauenau. Postfach 105, D94258 Frauenau. D. Tel.: 00 49 9926 180 895. Fax: 00 49 9926 180 897.

CONFERENCES/MEETINGS/ SYMPOSIUMS & TALKS

*02/08/14 @ 14:00. Stained Glass Supplies Ltd. Fresh from their residency at North Lands Creative Glass, and in colaboration with Bulls eye Glass, american artists Michael Endo and Emily Nachison will talk of, and illustrate, their and other artists' use of glass in gallery work and public art at the WASPS Hanson Street Studios on 2nd August. It will last for two hours and is free, but booking is required to attend. Please Email: [email protected] with the names of the people attending to reserve your place. Michael Endo earned an MFA in painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Michigan, in 2009 and a BA from Portland State University, Oregon, in 2005. His work has been exhibited internationally and has been selected for group and solo exhibitions. In 2011 Michael was the recipient of a Regional Arts and Culture Council Grant and was a finalist for the Seattle Art Museum's Betty Bowen Award. He is currently the curator at Bullseye Gallery and a visiting professor at the Oregon College of Art and Craft. Michael, a painter says, “I saw the potential of glass as a painting medium, as a material that could be manipulated to make three- dimensional paintings that not only created the illusion of depth on the surface, but also possessed a physical depth with layers of information. Light could penetrate the piece and bounce around. As a painter, I was always using glazes, which are transparent layers of paint. Glass is naturally translucent, and I layer it just as I would paint. That potential really attracted me to the material.” Emily Nachison, born in San Diego, California, received a BFA in Fiber from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2006 and a MFA in Fiber from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2010. She has had numerous solo exhibitions and has been included in multiple group shows across the country. In 2009 she was featured in the Art and Architecture issue of 944 Magazine. Emily was a finalist for the Virginia Commonwealth University Craft and Material Studies Emerging Artist Residency Program and most recently she received a grant from the Regional Arts and Culture Council in Portland, Oregon. She is currently the Department Chair, Fibers at the Oregon College of Art and Craft. Emily says “My artwork explores the human perception of nature and transformation. Mythology, scientific history and New-Age idealism become starting points for an investigation into the cultural creation of landscape.”

‘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?

10/10/1413/10/14. ‘Glassac14’ is the most recent in a series of international conferences on glass science in art and conservation. It is to be held at the University of Durham from 10th. to 13th. September 2014, with the final day being a visit to York Minster and its famous mediaeval glazing. The core of the conference is a three day programme of oral presentations (40 of them!) including contributions from five eminent Keynote Speakers. Full details may be found on the conference Website: www.glassac14.sgt.org . The major objective of this conference is to promote interaction and discussion between people from all specialisms within the arena of glass interest. When artists meet scientists, conservators meet contemporary glass artists, and business executives meet art historians you can rely on fascinating and creative discussions taking place! The rich variety of topics on offer is designed to encourage such fertile interactions. To this end we have devised the "ePoster" concept, replacing the traditional cardboard panels with much more accessible electronic equivalents - full details are on the web page at Website: www.glassac14.sgt.org/ePosters.htm> . We'd like to invite you most warmly to come as a delegate to this conference and participate to the full. Early bookings enjoy discounted fees!"

15/09/1403/10/14: ‘Blackfoot Pathways: Sculpture In The Wild International Sculpture Symposium’. September 15th. - October 3rd. 2014. Lincoln , Montana. US. Artists: Steven Siegel (US), Jorn Ronnau (DK), Alan Counihan (IRL), Jaakko Pernu (SF) & Kevin O'Dwyer (IRL). Lincoln (MT), a community nestled in the Blackfoot Valley of Montana, has been the center of rich, often times conflicting, social, cultural and environmental values. Mining, logging and ranching has been the key economic factors that have sustained the community throughout its history. As the logging and mining industries have subsided over the past 25 years the community finds itself at a crossroads in both economic and cultural development. Reflecting on its history and looking towards the future, the community has chosen contemporary art practice to act as both a creative and economic catalyst. The proposed sculpture symposium will bring internationally respected symposium artists Steven Siegel, Jorn Ronnau, Jaakko Pernu, Alan Counihan, Brandon Ballengee and Kevin O’Dwyer on site to engage with it’s landscape, exploring it’s historical, environmental and industrial history, through contemporary art practice. This engagement will: Place artists and art at the center of planning, execution and activity. Provide community engagement through hands-on participation and education thus encouraging creative expression. Create a community identity and a “sense of place”. Promote Lincoln as an “art destination” providing cultural and economic development. Provide long term opportunities for economic and cultural agencies to invest in the community. Provide the framework for the development of a vibrant artist community thus improving the quality of life in rural Montana. Encourage social, cultural and economic vibrancy in the Blackfoot Valley.

It will be held at Broadfield House Glass Museum, which houses the largest collection of the work of Amalric Walter 1870-1959, a pioneer of the process, developed at Sèvres in the late 19th. Century. In addition to short presentations by the event leaders the day will allow delegates to study pieces by Walter, and to present their own work as part of personal surgeries within a group framework. There will be ample time for questions, and the prime object of the event will be to generate interest in, and practice of a process which had all but disappeared by the time of Walter`s death, yet which is now used by more artist`s world-wide than at any time.

‘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.

*Contemporary Glass Society Glass Student Awards @ ‘New Designers 2014: Part 1’. Business Design Centre, London. Harry Morgan of Edinburgh College Of Art has won this prestigious prize at the annual ‘New Designers’ expo, with a cast mixed media stringer sculpture, which stood out to be noticed. He did exceptionally well at the event, selling other pieces to a British Glass Collector. Runner-Ups for 2014 were Cara Walker from Gray’s School Of Art, Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen and Bethany Wood of De Montfort University, Leicester, who also won the Simon Moore prize ‘Commitment To Skill’. A ‘clean sweep’ was had by the University Of Sunderland, with four, yes four, of their Students picking up the Commendation Awards; Emma Baker, Stephanie Da Silva, Amber King and Stephanie Sykes. This year’s Judges were Clare Maddison of Contemporary Applied Arts gallery, Glass Artists, David Reekie and Louis Thompson and for C.G.S., Glass Artist Karen Murphy. Many congratulations to them all and we look forward to seeing their work at other venue and events in the future.

*Glass Department, National College Of Art & Design, Dublin. Please all look at the following link! www.thejournal.ie/ncad-glassblowing-furnace-tells-story-of-arts-funding-1536879-Jun2014/ As far as I am aware, the last college/university on the whole of the Irish island to have hot glass teaching facilities. If it goes, it will be a complete and utter disgrace. Once again, glass is being treated like the 'poor relation', compared to the other disciplines. I quite understand and appreciate the cost of such facilities and the sad state of the economic environment at present (for all colleges and everyone generally) BUT! ... Another sad day for glass!!!

Dan Klein Memorial Fund: North Lands Creative Glass expands with new workshop and accommodation. North Lands Creative Glass, one of the world’s most prestigious centres for the study and development of glass as an art form is expanding both physically and creatively with financial support from the Dan Klein Memorial Fund, Wm Grant & Sons Charitable Trust and Highlands & Islands Partnership Programme. The new workshop and purpose built residential accommodation at North Lands Creative Glass in Lybster will not only widen the scope of the techniques taught at the Alastair Pilkington Studio but also develop North Lands’ range of activities. Our current programme is described in the Website: www.northlandsglass.com . The new workshop, designed by Michael Roper, Chartered Architect, from East Lothian and local architect, Karlyn Sutherland, is bright and spacious with natural light providing clean working space for artists to draw, develop ideas, photograph work and hold seminars, while the new lodge will increase the accommodation currently provided in the School House which together with the adjacent grounds were leased from the Highland Council. Now that they have been purchased with the generous support of Creative Scotland, North Lands can enjoy the long term security needed to improve and develop the building and land. The capital project stems from a development project funded through Highland LEADER 2007-2013, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, aimed at building economic, environmental and creative sustainability for the organisation. The £60,000 donated to the fund set up in memory of Dan Klein, who along with Robert Maclennan, the then MP for Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross, instigated the establishment of North Lands Creative Glass in 1995 contributed to the cost of the new workshop which was officially opened on 4 April by Alan J. Poole, Dan’s Partner. Lord Maclennan recorded his appreciation and that of the Board of North Lands for all Dan had done for North Lands in establishing it as one of Europe’s principal centres of excellence in glass making attracting both internationally acclaimed artists as master class leaders and students from all parts of the world. In recognition of Dan’s great contribution to North Lands he renamed the School House which accommodates class leaders and artists in residence “Dan Klein House”. 2016 marks the 20th. anniversary of North Lands’ first Master Class led by Bertil Vallien, when North Lands plans to mount a retrospective exhibition of works from its significant Collection of Contemporary Glass, donated by masters and artists in residence over the past twenty years, in collaboration with Dovecot Studio in Edinburgh. It is also hoped to tour the exhibition to other venues in the UK and abroad. The Board of North Lands is deeply grateful to all Dan’s friends, associates and colleagues within the great glass community, who contributed so generously to his Memorial Fund and feels sure that Dan would have been happy to see the splendid new work shop and to know that School House now bears his name. The Board of North Lands is also grateful to the Friends of North Lands for contributing to the cost of equipping the residence and for their continuing financial support for master class students who require additional funding to enable them to attend the classes. Further information is available on the NLCG website on how to become a Friend for anyone who would like to contribute to the North Lands’ Students’ Fund. Grace MacBeath. North Lands Creative Glass.
