What is CONTEMPORARY GLASS and why is it important to ask this question?
In modern times when European craft skills and its traditions are being lost due to outsourcing of craft based productions to the Far East in order to satisfy a quick and democratic need for material goods we are standing in front of a future and a task we hardly can imagine the consequences off.
Glass as a material is an important material in the information society of today.
But is it also important as a material truly and only for crafts?
And what can glass offer art or art offer glass?
These are questions and thoughts you are more than welcome to answer or comment upon...
