About the Item

Celebrated glass artist Robert Levin, whose work is in museums and published around the world, creates pieces of incredible finish and precision. There is nothing rough or amateurish about them, as with so much blown glass: this is the work of a serious, museum-quality artist. This is a bowl that is gorgeous on its own, filled with fanciful biomorphic objects that are somewhere between fruit and living things, evoking curiosity and delight. There is actually one more "swirl" piece that was not included in these photos. There are NINE pieces in all here, including the bowl, and any one of them is intriguing on its own. Signed by the artist on the bottom. Rob Levin is an internationally known glass artist who lives and works near Burnsville in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Born and raised in Baltimore, MD. He received his BFA from Denison University and his MFA from Southern Illinois University. He was formerly the Resident Glass Artist at Penland School of Crafts, and has lectured, taught, and led workshops throughout the US, in Ireland, and in New Zealand. He has exhibited widely in the US, Europe, Japan, and the former Soviet Union. His work is in numerous public and private collections, including the Corning Museum of Glass, the Museum of American Glass, the High Museum in Atlanta, the Contemporary Glass Museum in Madrid, the Ebeltoft Glasmuseum in Denmark, the Great Synagogue of Jerusalem, and the Museum of Arts and Design in New York. Rob Levin has received a Southern Arts Federation/NEA Visual Arts Fellowship, two North Carolina Arts Council Fellowships, and a NC Arts Council Project Grant. For nine years he created the NC Governor's Entrepreneurial Schools Awards. He has twice created the NC Governor's Business Awards in Arts and Humanities, and has also made works which have been presented to visiting dignitaries to our state. His work has been featured in magazines such as American Craft, New Zealand Crafts, Craft Arts International, New Glass Review, as well as in books such as An Introduction to Visual Literacy, Contemporary American Craft Art, Contemporary Glass, and Masterpieces of American Glass. He is included in Who's Who in American Art, The Dictionary of International Biography, and Who's Who in America. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans.
