Kirra Galleries Director, Peter Kolliner OAM, speaking at the opening of the 8th annual Flame on Glass Exhibition said the exhibition had grown from fourteen artists in the first Flame on Glass Exhibition to twenty eight artists, with many pieces being of world standard. Of the initial fourteen artists, seven artists have been continuously involved since the first Flame on Glass Exhibition in 2003.
Mr Kolliner said the variety and styles of work had created a rich viewing experience for visitors to the gallery and provided the public with access to lampworking techniques to create a greater understanding of the ancient art form.
The works of twenty eight Australian Flame Glass Artists in the exhibition range from jewellery, perfume bottles to sculpture, making this exhibition one for collectors of personal items of contemporary glass art as well as signature pieces for homes and apartments.
