Bertil Vallien
Celebrating the inventor of sand-casted glass. "Glass offers opportunities like no other material. It has everything. For me--says Bertil Vallien--the blowing room is the center of everything. It's like ladling matter out of a volcano and watching the glowing lava turn to ice. Knowing the exact moment at which to capture a shift of light and wrench the secret from the glass is what it's all about."One of the most celebrated glass artists and designers in Sweden, Vallien is known most of all as the master of sand molding, in fact, the term sand-casted glass has come to be inextricably linked to him. He took up and developed this originally industrial technique (used in metal casting) and continues to explore its possibilities. Each new technical advance widens and enhances the artistic range, generating countless cycles of themes and motifs. This book gathers about sixty works grouped into thematic series such as "boats," "heads," "landscapes," "black pieces," an ideal synthesis of the artist's creative pathway.
Glasstress New York
An original and entertaining catalogue for a travelling exhibition that has already been much talked about. The expressive power of glass emerges from the pages of the Glasstrees catalogue, which travelled from the Venice Biennale to the Museum of Art and Design of New York in February 2012. The excellent colour photographs illustrate the glass sculptures and installations by internationally-acclaimed artists and designers, some of the most important on the international scene, who for the occasion tackled one of the arts to have made Venice famous throughout the world. This catalogue will become a "must" for collectors, designers, students and connoisseurs.
