'A Mind to Copy': Inspired by Meissen
‘A Mind to Copy’: Inspired by Meissen Anton Gabszewicz Independent Ceramic Historian, London Figure 1. Sir Charles Hanbury Williams by John Giles Eccardt. 1746 (National Portrait Gallery, London.) 20 he association between Nicholas Sprimont, part owner of the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory, Sir Everard Fawkener, private sec- retary to William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, the second son of King George II, and Sir Charles Hanbury Williams, diplomat and Tsometime British Envoy to the Saxon Court at Dresden was one that had far-reaching effects on the development and history of the ceramic industry in England. The well-known and oft cited letter of 9th June 1751 from Han- bury Williams (fig. 1) to his friend Henry Fox at Holland House, Kensington, where his china was stored, sets the scene. Fawkener had asked Hanbury Williams ‘…to send over models for different Pieces from hence, in order to furnish the Undertakers with good designs... But I thought it better and cheaper for the manufacturers to give them leave to take away any of my china from Holland House, and to copy what they like.’ Thus allowing Fawkener ‘… and anybody He brings with him, to see my China & to take away such pieces as they have a mind to Copy.’ The result of this exchange of correspondence and Hanbury Williams’ generous offer led to an almost instant influx of Meissen designs at Chelsea, a tremendous impetus to the nascent porcelain industry that was to influ- ence the course of events across the industry in England.

Abstract 2 Abstract This thesis is an investigation into the development of glass as an expressive medium in China through direct contact with Western methods of making, decoration and forming glass. The investigation proceeds through an analysis of the parallels between glass objects produced from Kangxi (1662-1722) to Qianlong period (1736-96), and contemporary practitioners’ (2000-2009), which is complemented by my own practice. The investigation mainly looks at three aspects and their inter-relationship within these strands. They are: 1) the history of glassmaking from 1696 to 1795 in the Qing dynasty with Western influences; 2) the analysis of Contemporary Chinese studio/academic glass within the imported UK model; 3) the development of my personal glass practice within this matrix. -

Colour, Form and Light Fun: Artistic Glass in Architecture
ALINA BUDZYńSKA* COLOUR, FORM AND LIGHT FUN: ARTISTIC GLASS IN ARCHITECTURE FORMA, KOLOR A zabawy światłem CZYLI SZKŁO ARTYSTYCZNE W ARCHITEKTURZE A b s t r a c t Art glass has a privileged position in the architectural space. This is due to its basic property of transparency, and its close relationship with light as a factor which deter- mines form, texture and colour. Therefore playing with architectural glass in archi- tecture is related to the most fundamental matters. This article presents several issues related to the effect of art glass on the architectural space. Each of the façade glass examples has been made using a different technique. Keywords: art glass, glass façade S t r e s z c z e n i e Użycie szkła artystycznego bywa pretekstem do różnorakich gier i zabaw w przestrze- ni architektonicznej. W artykule przytoczono kilka przykładów budowania przegro- dy szklanej przy zastosowaniu różnych technik monolitycznego szkła artystycznego. Każda z realizacji stanowi swoisty przykład możliwości estetycznych i kompozycyj- nych szkła w powiązaniu z funkcją w przestrzeni. Słowa kluczowe: szkło artystyczne, fasada szklana * M.Sc. Arch., M.Sc. art., Alina Budzyńska, Department of Drawing, Painting and Sculpture, Faculty of Architecture, Technical University of Wroclaw. 65 Fun is fundamental to the creative process. The pleasure that one takes in creation, the freedom and unpredictability of the result lead to freeing the creativity of the artist. When having fun, we are more willing to experiment and find it easier to tackle difficult tasks. We are more open to applying original solutions which we would normally feel were impractica- ble, and which could well prove to be the best solutions once the technical details have been fine-tuned. -
