Description

Berlin Glas, e.V. is a not-for-profit association that gives German and international, professional artists and students the opportunity to work with hot glass in Berlin. As Berlin is the center for contemporary art, a hot glass studio will provide an exchange between artists working with glass and the abundance of local talent. This component of art has not been developed in urban centers in Germany, and Berlin Glas, e.V. will bring a fresh perspective on glass as a medium for the fine arts.

The studio opened its doors to the public on December 9, 2011 and the first gather of glass was made in Berlin! To date, Berlin Glas, e.V. has received generous donations and discounts from well-known international glass equipment manufactures and private donors. We have also completed a successful fundraising campaign on Indiegogo.com called “Let´s Make History!”

Our mission is to share the ability of creating art with glass with the public and provide a resource to artists of all media. The underlying message that working in collaboration with artists of various cultures doesn’t just broaden someone’s artistic capacity, but actually creates a culture of peace. We also received the moral support of the German Commission for UNESCO.

The studio’s founding members is a collaboration of Americans, Germans, Canadians, Australians, and Lebanese; and by some of the biggest, up and coming names in contemporary glass. At the end of October 2011, Tim Belliveau and Phillip Bandura of the Bee Kingdom collective in Canada moved to Berlin to help founder and director Nadania Idriss make this project come into fruition. This is a team with years of combined experience in management, programming, technical ability and art practice.
