 Exhibition Spring Awaits......

The Contemporary Glass Society present the exhibition Spring Awaits...

A new year is upon us and we can start to look forward to those longer days, light breezes and sunny days of Spring. Spring – a word that conjures up gambolling lambs, crocuses breaking through the earth, trees dressed in greenery so bright it almost dazzles the eye and a gentle rise in temperature. Brightening up the gloomy months of winter.

 Exhibition Creativity, Fusion and Passion

“Creativity, Fusion and Passion” represents the visual testimony of the powerful union between creativity, technique and passion that are manifested in the glass works of art presented in this exhibition. Each of these creations reflects the ingenuity and artistry of 48 artists from 17 countries, whose unique perspectives have resulted in a diverse and fascinating collection. From fragility to solidity, from transparency to opacity, each piece is presented as a window to the wealth of possibilities that glass offers.
The transparency of glass allows light to penetrate and play with shapes and colors, creating effects that change with every movement and observation.

NATURE REFLECTED IN THE GLASS


 Exhibition CAMINOS

Caminos is an exhibition that invites us on a journey through the world of glass art, from Altman's point of view and inspiration.


Her artworks are usually inspired by the universe and nature, appeal to different forms and textures in a context in which different tones and nuances complement each other to produce unique pieces. We can notice in her works the presence of geometric and abstract forms, which come together in her own style, as eclectic as it is avant-garde.

Ibero-American Congress of Women, Artists and Scientists, Alcorcón, Spain, 2022.


The year 2022 is the International Year of Glass and the 25th anniversary of the creation of the Museum of Glass Art of Alcorcón-MAVA. Uniting both events, this Ibero-American Congress was organized around women in glass, artists and scientists, whose objective is to establish bridges between professional women who work in glass, listen to experiences in which ingenuity makes up for the lack of inputs, provide tools to improve work and facilitate the conjunction between both worlds (art and science), which he believes are so far away but are not so far.
