the french artist gérard delafosse has created a series of painted glass disks for this exhibition. because of the transparency of the glass, the viewer experiences these paintings as colour applied directly on to the white walls. 
eva engström of denmark creates fragility between lightness and illusion, like an angel fallen from the clouds drawing rhythmic coded messages on transparent stones on the beach. 
the swedish-dutch artist anna carlgren works with coloured optical glass in various tints, including terracotta, whereby light is refracted out of the object. 
hennie van engeland (b) creates graphic forms in heavy sculptural glass, reminiscent of runes. 
christine vanoppen (b) experiments with the transparency of glass. through the juxtaposition of opaque and transparent elements she arrives at sturdy structures of a primeval simplicity associated with the world of nature, her eternal source of inspiration. 
jeannine vrins (b), a pupil of the well-known belgian artist piet stockmans, creates ceramic and porcelain objects balancing between weight and weightlessness and based on the human articulations. the graphic artists winters and oeyen link up all the visible elements of the exhibition by means of large text banners. exhibition of glass by 't eksternest-glass objects in conjunction with the musée-atelier du verre, sars-poteries (fr) with the support of vizo (b) open every day from 15.00 to 18.00 hrs   next exhibitions: 24.08 - 24.11.2001 COLOURS AND RYTHMES ON GLASS, PHOTOGRAPHY AND DESIGN glass artist: fabienne picaud (fr), architectural glass photographer: rita ballinckx (b), panoramas designer: carina riezebos (nl), glass concept by c.i.c. in conjunction with 'le musée-atelier du verre, sars-poteries' (fr) 01.12 .2001 - 10.02.2002 VITALITY FACE TO TENDERNESS vitality: glass by the belgian artist wouter bolangier tenderness: glass by the french artist isabelle monod concept by c.i.c. in conjunction with 'le musée-atelier du verre, sars-poteries' (fr) |
