About the Item

Marvin Lipofsky 1938 - 2016 These previously unreleased works from Marvin Lipofsky’s estate represent the in-progress material that was in Marvin’s studio prior to his passing in 2016. The historical significance of these works cannot be overstated. Please contact us to learn more information about these exclusive works. Rona Crystal, International Glass Symposium, Lednicke, Slovakia. Created by Marvin Lipofsky with help from Stephan Gonder. Lipofsky approached glass as an organic, sculptural medium; resulting in his signature amorphic forms. Many of his works are colorful “bubbles” of glass. Often semi-transluscent, they allow the viewer to examine their depths. He is best known for the organic form of his pieces. His glass sculptures have been featured in more than 40 solo exhibitions; his work is included in numerous private collections and in more than 100 museums and corporate collections throughout the world. A two-time recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, Lipofsky was a pioneer in the contemporary glass movement. He taught and lectured at more than 300 workshops, conferences, and universities all over the world, as well as being a co-founder of the Glass Art Society.

  • Large Flattened Form with Shards and Cane in Blues - blown glass vessel
    By Susan Rankin
    Located in Bloomfield, ON
    This beautiful burnt orange vessel in blown glass takes its organic shape and wild patterns from nature. Canadian artist Susan Rankin finds inspiration in the ever-changing colours and forms in the garden she tends to all summer. “With this new series of blown vessels I am working with more transparent translucent colours, shards, glass threads and thread drawing. The resulting pieces have a history/story built into the surface, which encompass the optic qualities of glass and light.” Susan Rankin She graduated with honors from Sheridan College, Oakville Ontario, in 1989 and received a three-year artist in residency at the Harbourfront Centre glass studio. Rankin has studied glass at the Pilchuck...
