  • Mass Glass Structures
    Challenging Glass 2 – Conference on Architectural and Structural Applications of Glass, Bos, Louter, Veer (Eds.), TU Delft, May 2010. Copyright © with the authors. All rights reserved. Mass Glass Structures Antony Smith IPIG Ltd. England. [email protected] www.ipig.biz Glass has a long tradition as a medium for art and sculptural design. Yet, with a few notable exceptions, these items remain small and studio based. Over the last six years, the author has developed a number of larger scale projects which bridge the gap between architecture and sculpture. These projects incorporate predominantly annealed glass and rely on gravity and mass for stability, yet their simplicity of form belies a complexity of construction. This paper explains the typologies of mass glass structures and explores the geometrical, engineering, manufacturing and installation challenges which have been encountered and overcome in their realization. Keywords: Mass Glass Structure, Glass Sculpture, Layered Glass. 1. Introduction Glass has a long tradition as a decorative material in both jewellery and artefacts. These items have exploited the colors, and more importantly, the light changing characteristics of the basic material. In the last fifty years the architectural use of glass has expanded rapidly with float glass becoming a regular construction material in the windows and curtain walling of our built environment. The mass production of glass has led to a common construction typology which utilizes glass to maximize daylight and control the internal environment in buildings, whilst minimizing material usage. This paper deals with a completely different form of glass construction which synthesizes modern day glass production, gravity based or mass structures, and sculptural or decorative forms to create mass glass structures.

  • Dal 22 Al 27 Aprile 2009 DILMOS PRESENTA "Compression" Di
    Dal 22 al 27 aprile 2009 DILMOS PRESENTA "Compression" di Danny Lane A series of works in glass realized for Dilmos by Danny Lane, under the sign of "compression". In 1988 Dilmos presented the seminal works of Danny Lane in the exhibition "In Vitro Crjstallisation"and now,twenty years on, Dilmos is showing a collection of historical and new pieces of the american artist. "The structural virtue of glass is it's ability to sustain compression. Glass is 20 times as strong as concrete, under compression. It is a metaphor of the dynamic of resistance and containment. The unrefined flow of the creative impulse is strengthened and qualified by 'that which resists us' . The artist's right and fight to play! " Famed for his large-scale Sculpture in float glass which, like the seminal "Against The Wall"(2001), shown here for the first time in Europe, defy gravity with breathtaking elegance. Danny Lane has moved into colour. Process has always been integral to Danny Lane’s vision, so typically, for an artist who’s driven by vision rather than the possible, he is making his own, extraordinarily vibrant, coloured glass. The process is intense, alchemical, and an integral part of the work. Like the British visionary tradition Danny Lane sees himself as a part of, from William Blake to Cecil Collins, and unlike many contemporary artists, this is a practice forged in making, in physical process, and firmly based in the studio. When Danny Lane’s first furnace was destroyed when his studio burnt down in 2001, he emerged Phoenix-like from the ashes of his past, and here reveals the triumphant products of his new furnaces.
