Blue Spiral 1 Gallery Looks to Studio Glass' Future

North Carolina's Asheville was named one of AmericanStyle magazine's "Top 25 Arts Destinations" . This week, another of its top galleries - this time Blue Spiral 1 - opens a show that looks to honor the 50th Anniversary of the American Studio Glass Movement.

WGS is well represented in the list of artists!

Blue Spiral has curated the show with an eye to the future of glass with "compelling sculpture [that] speaks to conceptual and narrative directions the medium takes in the 21st Century".


Artists include a number from the Washington Glass School extended family - Tim Tate, Sean Hennessey, Michael Janis, Marc Petrovic, Christina Bothwell and Susan Taylor Glasgow.


With Erwin Timmers' work showing at nearby Bender Gallery - its like a Washington Glass School summer camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains!
