MASTERCLASSES AT INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF GLASS, UK
The International Festival of Glass 2012 is fast approaching. Masterclasses are quickly selling out but there are still a few opportunities to learn a new skill or sharpen up your existing skills. As well as Olympic and Jubilee year, the IFG is celebrating 50 years of the Studio Glass Movement and 400 years of Glassmaking in Stourbridge. Why not join us in the celebrations!
Have a go at glass blowing with Fritz Dreisbach, a pioneer of the Studio Glass Movement - shorter one and a half day classes are now being offered for beginners. Learn how to make flameworked glass sculptures that move with Bandhu Scott Dunham. This class is also suitable to all skill levels. Or try your hand at the forever fascinating skill of marble making with Diana East and Sean Taylor.
For those with an interest in the latest technology, water jet cutting with Vanessa Cutler and digital 3D CAD modelling with Shelley Doolan are available. Both of these courses can also be suitable for jewellers, ceramicists etc. No experience is necessary but basic computer skills are useful. Study the traditional skill of wheel engraving and, in particular, the art of portrait engraving with Alison Kinnaird. Find out how John Lewis incorporates his contemporary cast elements into modern architecture and try out his methods of hot casting into different types of materials.
