2. Glaspreis der Stadt Hadamar Exhibition
As part of the 700th anniversary celebration of the city of Hadamar in 2024, the city, in collaboration with the “Trägerverein des Glasmuseums Schloss Hadamar e.V.,” is announcing the second Glass Prize of the City of Hadamar.
The intention behind this award for artistically designed glass is to document the development of glass art on both a national and international level and to establish a benchmark for its progress.
The goal of the event is to formalize a competition that will take place every ten years in Hadamar, accompanied by an exhibition presentation at the Glass Museum Schloss Hadamar.

Simon Gate’s famous Bacchus Bowl or Kosta’s famous crystal Tsar’s Bowl could not be made today. There are very few knowledge carriers and some of the equipment is only preserved in archives. At the tip of the wheel aims to uplift these at-risk techniques, through a blended historical and contemporary exhibition, and complemented with workshops and demos.
Taking over Open, our cavernous exhibition space in the old blowing hall, works from 17 contemporary glass cutters and engravers will sit side-by-side with historic works from our collection. A wide range of engraving techniques will be displayed, from extreme deep cutting to delicate copper wheel engraving.
At the center of the exhibition we will establish a working cutting shop with historical machines and traditional cutting disks. Visitors will be able to see both historical and contemporary examples of cut and engraved glass, while getting a deeper understanding of the techniques and knowledge behind each line.

My most recent series of sculptures titled ‘This is not a TV’, revisits themes of mass media, juxtaposing analogue against digital phenomena. I am literally questioning personal observations on how we experiencing the world around us through these sculptures, especially as I believe we live in an age of surveillance.
“This is not a TV”’s title references René Magritte’s painting “The Treachery of Images” also known as “This is not a pipe”. I love the surreal nature where words and iconography clash, questioning the relationship between the image and reality. I find this particularly important in our current age, where days are filled with endless reams of fleeting images…

On the occasion of the Berlin edition of the international Glass Art Society conference, the group exhibition, “Under the skin” is taking place in the spaces of KA 32 Gallery.
The show is a dialogue between international glass artists and artists residing in Berlin that come from other disciplines, who have been invited to experiment with glass, specifically for this event.
The common thread is research, the need to look beneath the surface shaping narrative devices able to provide critical point of views. The exchange of technical experiences stimulates a conversation among the artists with the goal of creating new perspectives through art and new points of view (other than those established) to examine the world we live in.
Participating Artists: Lothar Böttcher, Samanta Malavasi, Mollified Collective (Cosima Montavoci + Lorenzo Passi), Silvia Levenson, Dario Puggioni, Jessica Rimondi, Patrick Roth, Ioana Stelea, Claudia Virginia Vitari, Samuel Weisenborn
