Glass Art Society Conference Chicago 2014

Richard Royal Demo

Coming from NCAD’s glass programme in Dublin, I was excited about the opportunities that going on student exchange at Southern Illinois University would bring. One of these opportunities was to attend the annual Glass Art Society Conference, held this year in Chicago. The conference ran from March 19-22 and was hosted across a few venues in Chicago. The lectures took place in the Palmer House Hotel near Chicago’s busiest area, the Loop. Demonstrations from artists took place in Ignite Glass Studios and West Supply Glass Studio. I had the fortune to stay at the Palmer House with the students from Southern Illinois University; I already knew this would be the nicest hotel I would stay in for a long time! Day one began with a welcome note, Lifetime Achievement Lecture and the Keynote Address in the Grand Ballroom of the Palmer House. What a beautiful surrounding for some great talks! Demonstrations were held during the latter part of the day in West Supply and Ignite Glass Studios. Marc Petrovic demonstrated his iconic birds in West Supply while Richard Royal tested the capacity of the glory holes in Ignite with a massive glass ball.  The opening reception was held in the Grand Ballroom later that night, with delicious signature food and punch from the Palmer House served on silver platters, no expense was spared!

Karren's lecture 

It was an early start for the second day of the Glass Art Society Conference in Chicago. The Emerging Artists talks are often one of the most popular lectures at the conference and this year was no exception, the room was filled with early birds. Jiyong Lee, currently on the Board of Directors for the Glass Art Society, and head of the Glass programme at Southern Illinois University introduced the three speakers; Steven Ciezki, Charlotte Potter and our very own Karen Donnellan. Karen, the only Irish speaker at the conference, received her Bachelor of Design from the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Glass, her Master of Arts from Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in New York State and is currently aArtist in Residence at NCAD. Karen begins her presentation with “Dia daoibh”, a friendly Irish phrase for my Irish ears.  She apologises for the early start as there were a few tired heads from the opening reception held the night before, but nevertheless looking bright-eyed herself. She explains that she is a qualified Reiki practitioner. The influence this has in her work becomes apparent as the lecture continues.  When Karen was an undergrad, she also participated in a student exchange at Southern Illinois University.  She discusses the work she developed there based on Chakras and shapes associated with feelings of being grounded and low centres of gravity.  Karen admits that colour for her was a language she used freely at an undergraduate level, but whilst studying in RIT she challenged herself not to use colour and thus found a new language in texture and form.  This language can very much be seen in the work that follows.  Her work has a meditative quality. Donnellan discussed how she signified this in her work 21 Days: this being the required timeframe to complete the healing process in Reiki cleansing.

Karen Donnellan 21 Days

Quite refreshingly, Donnellan shows a video of some glass-making processes, the audio of ringing solfeggio tuning forks filled the room, uninterrupted by any audience member. Again her focus on meditation can be recognised in this piece. Much of her lecture consists of talking about her time spent in an Emerging Artist Residency in Pilchuck Glass School in Seattle. She talks about the collaborative work she created with John Hogan. This work is more recent and explores the light and optics of glass.  Recently she has been invited to have a solo exhibition at the National Craft Gallery in Kilkenny. She talks about her interest in sound and the grant she recently received from the County Council to employ a sound technician. 

Donnellan mentioned other achievements but unfortunately one could only write so fast. She is an emerging artist with huge potential and is beginning to be recognised on the world glass art stage. Her pathway from undergrad on exchange at SIU to Emerging Artist at the GAS conference is a colourful, busy and a successful example for Irish glass artists.

After Karen’s lecture, I headed to the demonstrations later that day. I got the chance to see two marvellous demonstrations in Ignite and luckily for me I had a good vantage point of both lampworking and blowing studios. Chris Carlson demonstrated marble making with colour chip pick-ups and Martin Janecky also tested how large a piece could fit in the glory holes with a huge bull head.  Both demonstrations were heavily attended.

At 5 o clock the Gallery Hop kicked off. Unfortunately I was not able to participate but the feedback was excellent. The hop featured many of Chicago’s exciting galleries such as the Made Gallery. The last day of the conference had an early start with demos beginning at 8am. I attended Kiva Ford’s lampworking demonstration in West Supply where he maticulously created a bottle within a bottle using blown borocilicate tubing.

The Student Exhibition was open to the public later that evening and I took the opportunity to present my work in this show. Another highlight of the evening was the Neon Exhibiton also held in the Palmer House. Other services were available on the last day including the portfolio review open to all students, where one had the opportunity to have their body of work reviewed by a panel containing some of the Board and the demonstrators from the conference. The closing night party was held in Chicago’s Culture Centre and no better place to gather all these glass fanatics together than under its famous Tiffany glass dome.

The conference took place over three days and the schedule was jam-packed with demonstrations, lectures and several educational resources.  The Glass Art Society offers a discounted conference ticket price to members so it is definitely worthwhile becoming a GAS member. It also allows you to apply for scholarships to attend their conferences.  It was announced this week that the GAS Conference 2015 will be held in San José, hopefully there will be more Irish glass artists out in full colour there!

Who's Buying? - Glass at Showcase Ireland

Filigrana Vases, BTU Studio Production line 2014

2013 was another good year for Irish craft.
According to CCoI statistics the number of people buying craft has been rising in recent years which is good news for all the Irish-Glassies.
As well as the usual suspects (Jerpoint Glass Studio, Irish Handmade Glass and Kerry Crafted Glass who we caught up with last year) there were some new faces at Showcase Ireland this year including the familiar faces of Scott Benefield and Catherine Keenan. 

Albion - Scott's personal work

Scott was there representing the BTU studio which he founded with his wife and fellow glass artist, Andrea Spencer in 2011. They are based in Randelstown in Northern Ireland. The studio is named after a dated measure of energy, the British Thermal Unit and they produce and annual line of blown glassware and decorative objects. Here’s what Scott had to say about selling at Showcase this year:

"I had really good experience. I thought that the buyers were much more open to looking at something new and even committing to an order in comparison to, say, the British Craft Trade Fair. It was great to meet other exhibitors and staff from the Crafts Council; it gave me an expanded sense of the handcraft scene in Ireland.  

Andrea Spencer, Temporal Properties

The offerings in glass were absurdly few- besides me, there were only three other studios in the Creative Island section. It's far from critical mass levels and so the market in Ireland for contemporary glass remains undeveloped, in my opinion. But the good news is that there seems to be plenty of room for new designers and makers who are working with glass."

BTU's Stand at Showcase 

'Eye candy' - Catherine Keenan

Catherine Keenan was also an exhibitor there, selected as part of the Craft Northern Ireland group. Catherine received her BA in Glass from the National College of Art and Design in Dublin and continued her studies in the UK. Since graduating, has continued to work from her native Northern Ireland producing decorative blown vessels and lamp-worked glass jewellery. She is currently based at Flowerfield Arts Centre in Portstewart.

Catherine's Stand at Showcase 

"I was in an area that was mostly fashion accessories and jewellery, as I was focusing on getting wholesale orders for my lamp worked glass jewellery. However I also brought my blown glass in order to draw people to my stand and also make clear the connection between the blown glass and my jewellery. I got a great response to my work, people were instantly drawn to the colours, particularly in my new 'Colourscape' range of jewellery.  I gained a substantial number of new stockists mostly throughout Ireland, also one on Iona.
In terms of the market for glass in Ireland: I found a lot of shops liked my blown glass and I had some good discussions with higher-end galleries but it is a rather small and select group of buyers who have a particular interest in glass. I think is the main issue that people often don't understand the cost of producing a piece of glass and therefore don’t understand the value.
That said however, when I have exhibited through the Crafts Council of Ireland, or at the RDS National Crafts Competition, I have tended to sell.  It seems clear to me that they are getting the select audience for high end craft, who appreciate the work and quality of blown glass."

'Colourscape' Necklaces and 'Eye Candy' Blown Glass

So there you have it folks, word from the experts is that there's plenty of room for more glass in the Irish market place, especially if we can communicate the production costs more effectively to the average buyers. Thank you Catherine and Scott for sharing your experience with us.

Well done to all the glass-practitioners at Showcase this year - lets double our numbers for next year!

The Pilchuck Expereince - Apply Apply Apply

There's a place near Seattle, half way round the world from our rainy little island, that's synonymous with glass art: Pilchuck Glass School.

Every year Pilchuck serves as melting pot (pun intended) for glass art enthusiasts worldwide. The school offers summer intensive classes from May through to September and several artist residencies throughout the rest of the year. 
A trip to Pilchuck is a truly unique experience where you learn far more than the syllabus of your chosen class; It is an unequalled opportunity to make international connections and see in one place the vast diversity and scope of the international glass art practice. Once you have an open mind and a desire to learn, you are never to old or too inexperienced to enjoy a trip to Pilchuck.

Money. We all wish we had more of it, I won't lie Pilchuck course fees are expensive and travelling from Ireland will cost the guts of a grand for flights. There are however a range of options to help with the costs including scholarships, campus internships and teaching/artist assistant positions. 

Almost one third of Pilchuck students receive some kind of financial assistance through scholarship programmes. Some are full scholarships, covering tuition, accommodation and travel to Pilchuck. Half scholarships, which are more numerous, cover half the cost of tuition and accommodation but do not cover the cost of travel. Those with studio experience in glass can also apply to work as Artist or Teaching Assistants: TAs and AA's receive accommodation, meals and covered or subsidised travel to the Pilchuck campus. 

The iconic hotshop 

All staff on campus, from the ones who clean the bathrooms to those who process the paperwork, are practising artists. Artsits can apply to work in a range of positions (kitchen staff, maintenance staff etc...) for two or more of the summer sessions. Staff get accommodation, meals, a small subsidy and some time to do some personal work between sessions. Mainly though, working as seasonal staff is a great opportunity to meet and connect with the visiting artists and students, make some great friends and have some great experiences. As it is not a paid position, Irish applicants can go on a travel visa (avoiding the great expense of an american work visa). 

Two NCAD glass students went to Pilchuck in summer 2013. I asked them for a few words on their experience: 

Gwyn Grace

'Gwyn Grace went to Pilchuck Glass School in August 2012 on a Partner half-scholarship through NCAD having just finished 3rd year. Her course was lost-wax kiln-casting ‘Shape into form’ with Joel Hurlbert and Karin Tornell - glass artists working in Stockholm, Sweden. There were 9 on the course, a mix of students and established artists and teachers. Kiln casting is a long process so time for finishing and cold-working was short as most of the pieces were only ready a few days before the end however most of us were able to take our work with us to complete once we'd returned home. All the class worked long hours, often well after midnight preparing for a kilnfiring but we had lots of fun as well. The pace of the kiln-casting class gave us lots of opportunity to see demonstrations happening in other classes and meet the rest of students.  She summed up here experience with a toast: “ Here's to fond memories, future plans and heart-felt thanks to everyone's generosity of spirit!”'

Looking at the casts with the class 

Jesse Gunther

Jesse Gunther travelled to Pilchuck on a scholarship after finishing his BA in Glass in NCAD, summer 2013. Jesse proves that you never know what a trip to Pilchuck might bring. Here's what he had to say about it:
 
'For starters it was an amazing experience! I took Tom Rowney's class; ‘Cups with Cane’ and focused on making different styles of cane, ranging from straight to very intricate twisty cane. After that we learnt how to turn these canes into straight cups and footed vessels. In the last week we started using the garage to make more complex goblets. Our entire class were all newcomers to Pilchuck, and the skill level was very even throughout the class, which made for a great experience for everyone.

Tom Rowney's cane seahorses

I got really lucky after Pilchuck; I had a while before my return flight and I got to help out Jeff Ballard in the Tacoma Museum for two days where he was Artist in Residence, that was a great experience! Then two days later I also got to work one day for Martin Blank in his studio who was just preparing for a big exhibition, amazing stuff..'

Deadlines for scholarship/assistant/staff applications are coming up in FEBRUARY. See their website for more details and remember guys, if you do go, the GSoI wants to here all about it!!

GSoI: Looking back on 'Orientate' 2013

Dear reader, On Saturday the 2^nd of November 2013 the recently re-formed Glass Society of Ireland held its first international symposium; ‘Orientate’ in CIT Crawford College of Art and Design, Cork. Early that morning our favourite GSoI members (I joke, we have no favourites – we just hope even more of you can make it next year) sacrificed their Saturday lie-in to join us for a day of stimulating talks and presentations from a variety of glass practitioners, craft writers and curators.

The choice to include such a range of professional fields amongst our speakers was deliberate. We are acutely aware that the future of glass as an art material relies upon much more than a talented artists working alone in a studio. Everyone is connected by a vital network of dependency – the artists, the writer, the curator, the buyer. The symposium ‘Orientate’ was aptly titled; this conference aimed to uncover how contextualising the material has underpinned glass as an occupation - exploring how we orientate ourselves around the material.

Mimmo Paladino: El Rabdomante, Glasstress 2013

Our first speaker that morning was our keynote speaker Dr Francesca Giubilei. We asked Francesca to give the keynote address as she is Project Manager and Curators Assistant for the pioneering Glasstress exhibition. Glasstress, a satellite exhibition of the world renowned Venice Biennale, seeks to open up the use of glass as a material by giving artists access to the incredible skills and expertise of Murano’s glass-masters to produce work.

 

With her charming Italian accent, Francesca talked us through the origins of Glasstress, a project she described as ‘a bridge between the old idea of glass and the future.’ Projects like Glasstress are breaking down the perception of glass as a disciplined craft material and injecting it into the ‘anything’s possible’ world of contemporary fine art. Francesca’s lecture really set the tone about the pivotal point that glass is at today. The Glasstress exhibition 2013 was on show in Venice until the 24^th of November and will travel to the London College of Fashion next year.  

Helen Story: The Dress of Glass and Flame, Glasstress 2013 

After Dr Giubilei’s lecture the audience had the opportunity to ask questions and converse. An interesting discussion arose from the audience about the importance of ‘intellectual property’ when a glass-master is involved in the production of an artwork. Do projects like Glasstress undermine the technical skills and achievements of the glass-masters? Many of the makers present in the audience felt slightly uncomfortable with the idea that this style of a conceptually led project might be the way forward for glass. While everyone seemed to agree that the collaborations and exchange of knowledge occurring in Venice are exciting there also seemed to be a consensus that ‘we must not just train thinkers’ and that technical skills must not lose their value. 

The next speaker of the morning was our only Irish national: Dr Eleanor Flegg. Eleanor is a writer and lecturer. Craft is her main inspiration although as she informed us, she does not consider herself ‘a champion to the cause of craft’ she writes about it because she finds it interesting. Eleanor’s talk was a personal favourite: though it had very little to do with glass, it had everything to do with the potential of writing to explore all kinds of art/objects.  She talked about the different types of writing that may be used in the context of writing about craft – how it is often indulgent writing, focusing on promoting the artist/gallery/material or bland information based around dates locations and statistics about the piece or person in question. Critical writing is less common but is something that perhaps should be considered more since, Eleanor pointed out, “the reason that I write at all is to find out what I think.” Our thoughts and opinions are rarely straightforward; the reflective process of writing can help us assess them more clearly. She referred to writing as “a making process – it’s just not three dimensional”. Eleanor is interested in finding new ways of writing about craft and she is currently writing a speculative fiction novel based on her experience of a ceramic artist’s work (the name eludes me, I apologise). She delighted us by reading an extract from it during her talk – it was the most unusual way of engaging with an object I've encountered and strangely captivating. 

A central point of Eleanor’s talk left lingering in my mind was the idea that we should be ‘pushing boundaries without being certain of the results’. She is pushing boundaries in her atypical craft writing practice just as exhibitions like Glasstress push boundaries and break material tradition. If the audience – who were largely makers and students - were to take just one thing away from her talk I hope it’s an appreciation of the power of writing as a tool towards understanding our own opinion and perhaps our own practice in a way that is just that little bit more considered and - no pun intended, crafted.

Jerome Harrington, 'Glass in the Expanded Field' - Diagram.

The third speaker of the morning was Jerome Harrington. Jerome is a UK artist with a background in glass making whose current work takes an ‘expanded’ view of working with glass. He is not so much interested in working with the material itself as investigating how it is culturally perceived and utilized.  Jerome broke his talk into 3 loose sections, based around the questions ‘why glass?’, ‘what is glass?’ and ‘what does glass mean?’. One of Jerome’s most interesting projects the audience found was his 2011 study of Glass in the Expanded Field. Based on Rosalind Krauss’s exploration of the expanded field of sculpture in the 1960s, Glass in the Expanded Field is a study of how glass makers identify themselves and their peers within the discipline: subjects orientated themselves on a diagram in proximity to either ‘prioritising of craft skill’ or ‘prioritising of concept’. The results of the study show a wide range of stances by makers as to where they position themselves in relation to the studio glass movement, to craft practice and to fine art.

The morning session concluded with a panel discussion featuring the three speakers and led by GSoI Vice-Chairperson Emer Lynch, a curator whose own practice has developed from her educational background in glass at the National College of Art and Design. Emer invited the audience to engage with the speakers and ask questions on issues raised in their lectures. The main subject that was discussed was the difference between glass art and glass craft, and if indeed there was a difference at all. The apparent consensus within the audience was that the labels are generally nothing more than ‘marketing categories’ and that in general the discussion is one that makers can become fixated with but the general public don’t particularly care about the distinction. Everyone in the audience seemed interested in the debate and I imagine that if time allowed we might have continued to pick the speakers brains all afternoon but time waits for no one and it was off to a delicious lunch of home-made curry, courtesy of the college canteen. Yum!

To be continued!

Debbie Dawson in China

'I am Not Magnificent' - Debbie Dawson 

Congratulations to GSoI Chairperson Debbie Dawson who set off this week to China!  

Debbie will travel to Xi'an, China to represent Ireland  in an international sculpture symposium.
She will be part of an ambitious initiative involving selected practitioners from China and Europe. The project has been developed by of  EUNIC (the  European Union of National Institutes for Culture) and  Culture Ireland, Ireland's state agency for the promotion of Irish arts abroad. 

Debbie Dawson is a stained glass artist and head of the glass department at CIT, Crawford College of Arts and Design. Her work is concerned with inner dialogues and the notion of the ‘self’. 

Debbie  was nominated by the National Sculpture Factory (NFC) and has been selected through an intense competitive process. The selection panel was impressed by Dawson's work but also her established relationships with China developed through projects she has been working on in her capacity as a lecturer at CIT. 

Poster from 'Poetics of the Handmade'
- Which later travelled to NCAD Gallery, Dublin

Dawson is no stranger to Chinese relations, having built up a strong relationship with Prof. Xiao Wei Zhuang, Director of the MA in Glass at the College of Fine Art, Shanghai University, and the inaugural Director of the Shanghai Museum of Glass. Debbie has hosted a number of Chinese exchange students at CCAD over the last couple of years, and has delivered workshops in China. She was the curator of Xiao Wei’s outstanding  solo exhibition, “Poetics of the Handmade” which was held at CIT Wandesford Quay Gallery as part of Ireland’d Year of Craft in 2011. She has herself delivered workshops at Shanghai university and has exhibited in China.  She has been invited to Xian for 10 days as one of up to 10 European artist and she will meet her Chinese colleagues and  have the opportunity to engage in residencies and international institutional exchange.

Also travelling from Ireland is Mary McCarthy, Director of the National Sculpture Factory, Cork. Mary has been selected as one of six European speakers to deliver  a key note presentation and she has been invited to talk about the role of artists  in Ireland and the work of the NSF in expanding the definitions of sculpture and the possibilities for art works in the public realm.

'Like a Door Opening' - Debbie Dawson

Both Mary and Debbie have been invited and will be hosted by the prestigious Chinese National Academy of the Arts, EUNIC and the Shaaxi Provincial Department of culture while their travel is supported by Culture Ireland.

The conference topics include  space/Culture and Object. This is an exciting opportunity for both Debbie and Mary. Eric  Messerschmidt, President of EUNIC has been highly impressed by Ireland's desire to participate  in this event and the efforts of the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Department of Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht via Culture Ireland to enable this participation.

See more of Debbie's beautiful work on her website

Well done Debbie and best of luck on your trip! 

'Nobodys Girl' - Debbie Dawson 

GSoI Nov Events 2013

So we have had a very busy year so far at GSoI but its not over yet! In Nov we will be having  a series of exciting events in both Dublin and Cork - workshops, an exhibition and a conference with a fantastic line up of speakers...

 Here's a little taster so you can be sure to put us in your dairy!

Jeremy Lepisto at the National College of Art and Design

The Glass Society of Ireland was delighted to attend Jeremy Lepisto’s talk at the National College of Art and Design on Tuesday. He is very open about his work both conceptually and technically which made for a fascinating talk.

Lepisto grew up in the glass capital of America, Toledo, Ohio. This industrial setting has made a huge impact on his aesthetic. Looking at his body of work you can see hard architectural lines as well as iconic structure such as his water towers. These visual influences are only one part of the narrative which resonates from his childhood into his present day life.

The work ethic in the family was strong and Lepisto himself worked from an early age. He spoke fondly of his family and specially his Grandfather ‘Pops’. Lepisto tells of how his Grandfather took great pride in his work and believed “a firm foundation is the key to a successful structure”. This sentiment has left its mark and this can be seen not only in the care and quality of the art works Lepisto produces, but also in the images he showed of his immaculate workspaces.

Lepisto describes his work as self portraits, each one reflecting his current situation and how it relates to his present environment. In doing this he creates a body of work which encompasses both the banality and the complexity of life simultaneously.

This work, inspired by a sense of place and strong relationship with the visual experiences available in the United States, came up against a challenge when Lepisto and his wife made the decision to move to Australia. Away from his support network and the landscapes which appear as such an integral part of his early work Lepisto had to tackle his art from new angles.

The most recent series, the container series, looks at transition and how life in one location can be packaged and moved another location. The lack of imagery in this series stems from a concern about appropriation of Australian vernacular architecture. This landscape, not yet ingrained in Lepisto sense of self, perhaps in time will begin to creep into new work. The auto biographical element in the work is strong and Lepisto is very open about the events which inspired the works.

 In an earlier series building blocks the pieces can be moved to form double meanings. In one position the images build from the edges into a cityscape, arranged in their second configuration to buildings start at the edges of the work and fade into a blank space in the centre. Lepisto explained how this series was made in a period where he and his wife where living in different locations. He drew our attention to the position of two small post boxes in the imagery and the piece changed from a clever puzzle to an eloquent expression of the pain of being apart and the joys of being reunited.

Lepisto’s practice is visually very beautiful and would be pleasing as studies of environment alone. However, it is the ability to produce subtle meanings in the works which push them to a new level of significance.

Charlene McFarland: Eedi & Éabha

Eedi & Éabha is a series of investigative events taking place in Tallinn, Estonia in February 2013. The project develops a partnership between Ireland and Estonia through exhibition, panel discussion and workshop.

A solo exhibition of the work of Northern Irish sculptural artist Charlene McFarland at GaleriiPINK will be the principal event of Eedi & Éabha. Heavily influenced by motor engineering, her pieces combine authentic recycled car components with blown glass and metal, and are imbued with a rhythmical energy informed by her experiences in car restoration workshops and showrooms. The work possesses a sense of animated vigour, reinforced by the fact that the changeable objects of each work are connected by magnets. This exhibition is curated by Emer Lynch.

The Estonian Academy of Arts will also host a panel discussion considering the international presentation of European applied art and the future of the field for emerging artists. Speakers for this event include curator Emer Lynch (IE), art critic Heili Sõrmus (EE), educator/ glass artist Tiina Sarapu (EE), marketing consultant Heidi Ruiso (EE) and textile artist/ designer Monika Järg (EE). This event is free and presentations will be in English.

The title Eedi & Éabha is derived from the names of the participating countries: Eesti & Éire. Taking inspiration from Charlene McFarland’s custom of naming her works after characters related to her research, Eedi & Éabha are identities embodying the personality of each country. Teamed together, the pair upholds an awareness of language, national identity and the building of European relationships.


Exhibition:
31st January – 25th February | Opening: 30th January at 6pm
GaleriiPINK, Telliskivi 22, 10611 Tallinn
Opening hours: Wed – Sun: 11am – 6pm
