| This just in! Recently quoted in Art Matters Magazine, August 2008. "Art of the State " By: Ellen Slupe, Staff 08/01/2008 "That same tactile appreciation is expressed in Bernard Katz's glass piece "Trans Bolinas - Cinnamon," but of course not in the process! The smooth oval ring of rich cinnamon-colored glass has a delicate etched upper surface interrupted by a small opening. The lower portion has beautiful striations of browns and blacks that gently curve upward and dissolve into a cloud of cinnamon-dusted space." Journey to this year's Art of the State: Pennsylvania 2008 exhibit in Harrisburg through September 21. For more information visit www.statemuseumpa.org or call N.

| Glassblowing Studio Opens to the Public By Jeremy Barker THE REVIEW Article in Roxborough PA Starting this week, residents can watch artists create glass sculptures first hand at an out of the way Manayunk studio. Bernard Katz Glass, a glassblowing and sculpture studio on Sharp Street, will have hours where the public can watch artists gather molten glass from a furnace, work to give it shape, and place a finished product in a kiln to cool gradually. "I think sometimes you take for granted, when you see glass in your cupboard, how it was made," said Bernard Katz, a glass-blowing artist whose work appears in collections that include museums in Kenya and Lycoming County."...I think what people take away from this is seeing glass in its molten, honey like form, when it's at 2,000 degrees and being manipulated." Glassblowing is interesting to watch live because artists work in teams and there's a sense of immediacy required to manipulate the glass before it cools, Katz said. September 2007 |
