TODAY Casting and art glass pioneer Paul Marioni on Talking Out Your Glass Podcast Subscribe on iTunes or Stitcher http://www.glassartmagazine.com/talking-out-your-glass-podcast Also listen on Spotify, iHeartRadio and Google Play Music Marioni in the September October 2015 issue of Glass Art magazine http://www.glassartmagazine.com/subscriptions Paul Marioni Illuminating the Distance Between Illusion and Reality It’s not uncommon to read comparisons between Albert Einstein and Paul Marioni, artist and one of the founders of the Studio Glass movement, many based on their shared lifelong fascination with light. Known as an innovator in the glass world, Marioni has been pushing the limits of his medium for nearly five decades, redefining what is possible not only in process but content. He says: “I work with glass for its distinct ability to capture and manipulate light. While my techniques are often inventive, they are only in service of the image.” A surrealist whose work addresses issues of nature, identity, and emotion, Marioni relies upon dreams as well as political and social convictions to make statements, causing us to forget the unfair advantage that working with glass affords. Using material that is inherently beautiful, the artist inspires people to think rather than telling them what to think. Marioni’s work can be found in collections including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C.; The Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, New York; and the Museum of Arts and Design, New York, New York. @evenaas @oceansideglasstile @covington.engineering @hisglassworks #glassartmagazine #talkingoutyourglass #Paulmarioni #Sonevaartandglass #sonevafushi #hisglassworks #Covingtonengineering #Oceansideglassandtile #castglass #architecturalglass #stainedglass #travergallery #blownglass #glassart #sunshineglassworks https://www.instagram.com/p/BtWSwb6hhuC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x7u9n8k60r62

What was I thinking to get into a field with no history, no books, no teaching? Obviously I wasn’t thinking. But we built the Studio Glass movement on cooperation, not competition, because there was no past. There was nothing for us to get. And we’ve barely scratched the surface of what can be done.” In addition to gallery work, Marioni has produced over 100 public and private commissions in both cast glass and terrazzo. From his studio in Mexico, the artist currently works on the biggest commission of his career for the $52 million Bellevue, Washington, light rail station. Its train serves business powerhouses of the Pacific Northwest including Microsoft and Boeing. Selected as lead artist for the project through a national competition, Marioni is designing 3000+ square feet of art glass for the platforms as well as the terrazzo floors. #Repost @travergallery with @get_repost ・・・ Paul Marioni: Maybe is rather surreal.

Kathy Barnard NOW on Talking Out Your Glass Podcast Subscribe on iTunes or Stitcher http://www.glassartmagazine.com/talking-out-your-glass-podcast Also listen on Spotify, iHeartRadio and Google Play Music It is difficult to say if Barnard works primarily as a glass carver or a stained glass artist. It varies from year to year and according to which clients and commissions she works with in a given time period. Most recently the artist has completed seven stained glass panels for Presence Resurrection Hospital, Chicago, Illinois. Installed in custom steel frames, these etched and painted Lamberts glass windows represent Healing Stories of the Bible. A master at juggling large public commissions and smaller autonomous panels, Barnard has simultaneously been working on Fables & Other Muses, a series of exhibition pieces that includes her Raven collection and additional panels inspired by images from the natural world. “I love to tell stories with my works in glass by layering content. At first you see one aspect of the story or image but with more time viewing the piece, you may see something more.” #covingtonengineering #hisglassworks #ikonicsimaging #sunshineglassworks #bendheimglass #kathybarnard #talkingoutyourglass #glassartmagazine #americanglassguild #stainedglassassociationofamerica https://www.instagram.com/p/BuOks3yBtOY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=fs6dib8dszgd
