In May 2009, Wei-Ling Gallery in association with StudioGlass London, is proud to present a unique exhibition of Contemporary Czech Glass.
Since the Middle Ages the Czechs have been recognized for their traditional glass and crystal work, in particular Bohemia Crystal. In the fifties a new generation of modern artists emerged. This group have taken glass-making in the country to another level by re-interpreting it with a contemporary vision.
Today Czech glass artists are amongst the world’s leaders in this field, with their innovative and creative vision coupled with a strong technical understanding of the material. Czech glass art is principally a combination of sculptural and graphic expression.
This will be the first time that an exhibition of works by some of the Czech Republic’s finest glass artists will feature in Malaysia.
