The Influence of Lino Tagliapietra
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTEMPORARY GLASS AT INAUGURAL SILICON VALLEY ART FAIR: THE INFLUENCE OF LINO TAGLIAPIETRA Media Inquiries: Thursday, April 10-Sunday, April 13, 2014 at Silicon Valley Contemporary Art Fair Kristin Carlson McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California | Schantz Galleries Booth #410 Think All Day 505-501-2497 [email protected] SAN JOSE, CA—Schantz Galleries (Stockbridge, Massachusetts) is pleased to present new work by five top contemporary glass artists at the first annual Silicon Valley Contemporary Art Fair, April 10-13, 2014, Booth #410, McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California. The work of Lino Tagliapietra, Dante Marioni, John Kiley, David Walters, and Giles Bettison demonstrates that the intersection between technology and art precedes the digital age; cutting-edge science and innovative expression have long been synthesized in the discipline of glassmaking. Each of these artists has mastered and pushed the boundaries of traditional techniques, and achieved important advances in this time-honored art form. Italian glass maestro Lino Tagliapietra is acknowledged worldwide as one of the most influential glassmakers of our time; the other four artists in this exhibition have each studied and worked with Tagliapietra, and the broad scope of his influence in the field of glass art is evident in the far-reaching facets of their careers.

An Empirical Approach to Colour in Glass
arts Article An Empirical Approach to Colour in Glass Heike Brachlow School of Arts & Humanities, Royal College of Art, London SW7 2EU, UK; [email protected] Received: 1 December 2018; Accepted: 15 January 2019; Published: 18 January 2019 Abstract: This paper focuses on the characteristics and use of transparent homogenous coloured glass for cast glass sculpture. It provides an overview of glass colouring agents and their characteristics, and establishes factors that influence the appearance of colour in glass. Methods to visually evaluate appropriate colour density for a given form are discussed, as well as essential characteristics that a form must possess to achieve results within a density threshold area, where coloured glass changes in value and/or hue between thick and thin sections. Keywords: colour; volume colour; glass; glass casting; glass sculpture; glass art; optics; density threshold 1. Introduction Colour in glass is an extensive subject and one that I have been researching for many years, with a focus on colours for kiln cast solid glass sculpture. A given form’s appearance can change drastically depending on its colour, and on whether it is transparent, translucent or opaque. Colour decisions are of critical importance to glass artists—they can ‘make or break’ a work. Many glass artists’ approach to choosing colour may be loosely defined as ‘hit and miss’, a method which becomes more reliable as an artist’s experience increases. While glaze testing is an integral part of ceramics methodology, this approach is not always suitable for glass. Although glass artists do employ colour tests, especially when working with frits and powders or designs with multiple colours, to obtain effective test results on how a transparent colour works within a form, one would have to test at full scale, and essentially make a duplicate of the form, the first one being the test. -
Laser Engraving Tips and Tricks for Glassware
Laser Engraving Tips and Tricks for Glassware By Mike Dean, vice-president of sales and marketing, Epilog Laser Engraving on glass and crystal can produce stunning results. From engraving the names of the bride and groom on wedding champagne flutes to etching a company logo on a set of beer mugs and beyond, glass etching and engraving creates a sense of sophistication and beauty that is very popular among consumers. CO2 laser engraving equipment generally offers a quicker and more convenient alternative to traditional glass engraving techniques, such as sandblasting, which necessitates the creation of a template prior to starting the project. While engraved and etched glassware is in huge demand, depending on the type and lead content, glass is typically a very delicate material to work with. But don’t let the delicacy of the material dissuade you from glass engraving and etching – just keep the following tips and tricks in mind when working with glass and crystal and you’ll produce the results that keep customers coming back for more. Glassware Options First, you might find it easier to work with “everyday” glassware as opposed to crystal. Crystal contains a greater amount of lead, which retains heat very well (too well for a laser!). When you use a CO2 laser to engrave glass, the surface is heated as the laser beam blasts away delicate glass particles. If the glass is unable to cool down adequately, as is sometimes the case with crystal, the markings expand in size, which can produce a distorted look. Avoid a Second Pass Prior to running any glass engraving job, it's very important to test your speed and power settings on the type of glass you'll be using. -

Glass Staining
GLASS STAINING VIRACON TECH TALK Glass staining occurs when a chemical change or degradation of a glass surface occurs. This document outlines potential causes of glass staining as well as related prevention and cleaning recommendations. GLASS STAINING CAUSES OF GLASS STAINING During Construction Overall, flat glass for commercial buildings is uniquely resistant to chemical attacks and other types of deterioration. However, glass staining can occur from a reaction to acids used during new concrete cleaning, masonry runoff and prolonged water contact during storage and shipment. Glass staining implies a chemical change or degradation to the glass surface. Glass is inert to most acids, as well as other chemicals. Only phosphoric and hydrofluoric acids are harmful to glass. In concentrated form, these two chemicals will rapidly etch a glass surface. During building construction, hydrofluoric acid is often used to clean new concrete. This solution can accidentally splash onto the glass, seriously staining it in just one hour, resulting in costly glass replacement. Unlike acids, alkaline cleaning materials, such as ammonia and trisodium phosphate, will attack glass surfaces. In concentrated form, these solutions can cause serious etching. Diluted, these alkaline solutions still attack the glass but more slowly. As a result, glass surfaces should always be thoroughly rinsed after cleaning to avoid staining. Concentrated liquid cleaners used as a lubricant for gasket-glazed installations can also cause glass staining. Even though the glass is rinsed, some of the cleaner can get trapped between the gasket and the glass. This cleaner eventually seeps out, attacking the glass. As a result, it is important to use lubricants recommended by the gasket manufacturer. -

Subiaco Abbey

Thus a monastic cemetery is a comfortable place of continu- ing communion as we wait for the “all together” time. Have you been to Caesarea? The beginning of a cemetery at St. Benedict’s Priory, now Subiaco Abbey, and of St. Benedict’s Parish, was in 1878, shortly after the monks arrived from Indiana. The first burial was that of an elderly bachelor, a Mr. Babel, a brewer from Bavaria. He had lived 3 with the monks for about three weeks and then settled northwest of the town of Paris and began to construct a brewery. Here he fell ill. A Protestant neighbor brought the Abbey Journal news to Fr. Wolfgang at the priory and the prior hurried on the sick call. The next day Gardening without rain! word came that Mr. Babel had died and that there was no one to attend to his burial. The monks made a coffin and Fr. Wolfgang and Br. -

In grand opera, flute or piano trill cadenzas with the coloratura; the full orchestra thunders the chords of a chorus. Opera stars do not sing alone.
