Artist Sarah Briland, winner of the 2018 Irvin Borowsky International Prize Winner in Glass Arts, lectures Philadelphia this evening
Sarah Briland, who has been chosen as the 6th annual winner of the Irvin Borowsky International Prize in Glass Arts, will deliver her award lecture this evening at The University of the Arts in Philadelphia. Briland was selected by an international panel of artists, educators and collectors. Her recent work consists of combining glass with found objects such as wasps nests, honey and architectural fragments to make organic and environmentally inspired forms that mimic natural scientific processes like crystallization and fossilization. She takes much of her influence from the surroundings she was exposed to at an early age in West Virginia's coal mining region, thinking about man's connectivity to the earth. She has additional knowledge in the fields of environmental science and landscape architecture, backgrounds that continue to play a large role in her work as well.Continue Reading

A Visual Symphony - Works of Optimism by Lino Tagliapietra
Kim Saul
This January, as we all miss seeing our friends at the Art Fair in Florida, usually attended with Lino and Lina, we have taken the opportunity to share his most recent works with you in this catalog.
