OPENS 16 NOVEMBER 2019 - 2 FEBRUARY 2020

Exclusive to Gippsland Art Gallery, 'Hot Glass' marks Mount’s return to a region he once called home.

A leading figure in Gippsland’s ‘Craft Revolution’ of the 1970s, he remains an inspirational figure within the region.

Hot Glass showcases works from the last decade, including many never before seen in Australia, this is an unmissable opportunity to experience the extraordinary art of Nick Mount.

The Hot Shop MASTERS OF GLASS 2019

Sabbia Gallery is pleased to present The Hot Shop, the 24th edition of its annual Masters of Glass exhibition series. Each year Australia’s most influential and innovative artists working in glass are invited to exhibit in this greatly anticipated show.

For the 2019 exhibition Sabbia Gallery’s curator Anna Grigson has selected artists that primarily create their glass artwork in the hot shop. The exhibition presents works that concentrate on the highly skilled glass making techniques of blowing or hot sculpting, and all the diverse processes that are developed and achieved in the hot shop.

The exhibition also brings attention to and explores the importance of the integral relationships between the artist and their assistants in the making process.

Featuring Clare Belfrage, Annette Blair, Mel Douglas, Ben Edols & Kathy Elliott, Brenden Scott French, Holly Grace, Jenni Kemarre Martiniello, Nick Mount & Nick Wirdnam.

SKETCH – MASTERS OF GLASS 2018

Many artists, irrespective of their choice of medium, will create a number of sketches as a means to realise their ideas and design their next work of art.

These sketches over time as a collective are an important element of the artists practice. They present a fascinating insight into the manner in which the artist approaches their art and the work that is created.

When an artist works in a two-dimensional form such as painting, the progression from sketch to canvas for example can often be easily referenced.

When you consider three-dimensional art, specifically artworks created in glass, the transition from sketch to final artwork differs completely. The artist must think about the artwork in the round and how best to utilise the elements of form, scale, surface, light, colour, reflection and refraction.

Sabbia Gallery is pleased to present SKETCH, the 23rd edition of its annual Masters of Glass exhibition series. Some of Australia’s most influential artists in glass have been invited to exhibit. The exhibiting artwork is a response to the process in which each artist works, from sketch to final art form.

Interest in contemporary glass on the part of collectors, galleries, and museums has grown exponentially in recent years, more than a half century after the founding of the studio glass movement in the early 1960s. Thanks to the generosity of numerous donors, the Palmer Museum of Art is poised to become one of the preeminent destinations for studio glass on the East Coast.

A Kaleidoscope of Color highlights newly acquired works from the remarkable studio glass collection of Bette (’58) and Arnold Hoffman (’57). Recent gifts from Audrey and Norbert Gaelen (’47) and Julia K. Muller and Earl K. Shreckengast (’72) will also be featured, as well as a selection of pieces from private collections, including promised gifts from Barbara Palmer, and Bill (’60) and Honey Jaffe.

Represented will be an international roster of glass artists working today including Therman Statom, Lino Tagliapietra, Martin Janecky, Tobias Møhl, Etsuko Nishi, Oben Abright, Daniel Clayman, Hiroshi Yamano, John Kiley, Dante Marioni, Nick Mount, Richard Marquis, Youko Sano, and many others.

GLASS FOR THE NEW MILLENNIUM
MASTERWORKS FROM THE KAPLAN-OSTERGAARD COLLECTION
JULY 10, 2016 — OCTOBER 02, 2016

Contemporary glass leapt into the 21st century with new heights of expression. This exhibition surveys the work of some seventy dynamic global artists pushing the medium’s boundaries to make art in its fullest definition. Included are the field’s premier visionaries—Dale Chihuly, Nick Mount, Klaus Moje, Lino Tagliapietra, Marvin Lipofsky, and others, who made glass a vehicle for ideas, forever transforming the 20th-century studio movement. Their passionate exploration of European traditions and pursuit of material mastery formed networks of artists, expanding the appreciation of studio glass across continents. More than ever, at the turn of the century, material handling and conceptual exploration challenged how we perceive mass, volume, and form. From the life-sized, figural forms of Karen LaMonte to the cast-glass abstractions of Richard Whiteley, and the expectation-shattering sculptures of Masahiro Asaka and Christina Bothwell, the future of contemporary sculpture emerges.
