Exhibition of Poland’s vibrant glass scene opens!
Saturday, June 8th, 2024, at 3 p.m. at the Glasmuseum Lette.
Guests from Poland, among them world-renowned lecturers, graduates and students from the glass department at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław, will be presenting around 50 works.
It was exactly ten years ago that Glasmuseum Lette first invited Polish artists to exhibit with them who were associated as graduates or teachers with the renowned Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław, a prominent school for art glass in Poland.
In spring 2023, they paid a renewed visit to the academy’s glass department. They encountered there a state-of-the-art creative workshop in a spacious new building, equipped with technical infrastructure of a high standard, providing ideal conditions for training students. Thanks to the broad array of technical equipment at their disposal, students can learn here all the various techniques for working with glass in its hot or cold state, including glassblowing, fusing, lampwork, glass painting, cutting, engraving, architectural glass and restoration.
Experienced and highly specialised teaching staff who collaborate with international experts ensure a high level of instruction. The students have the unique opportunity to engage with glass in an interdisciplinary fashion, thus gaining new perspectives that help them to find their own artistic path – a situation that is quite exceptional on the international scene.
They were extremely impressed with these training conditions and the resulting artworks, reinforcing their desire to invite representatives from the school to exhibit with them.
Their guests from Poland, among them world-renowned lecturers, graduates and students from the glass department at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław, will be presenting around 50 works. They all demonstrate a perfect command of the various glassmaking techniques, but they also like to break with tradition in order to come up with something new. Their works are abstract, sculptural, narrative, ironic, or simply moving. Each piece makes its own statement, displaying a unique character, style, and form that express the artist’s own personal approach to the medium of glass.
We would like to thank especially the two artists Kalina Bańka-Kulka and Marzena Krzemińska-Baluch as well as Magdalena and Wiktor Borowski, who all acted as intermediaries between the artists and the foundation. Thanks to their support Glasmuseum Lette are now able to present Poland’s vibrant glass scene for the second time at their glass museum!
