About the Item

Rene Roubicek´s chandelier made in 1960s - 1970s in Novy Bor Glassworks in Czechoslovakia. Each chandelier from this limited edition was unique by combination of hand blown glass globes and glass rods. Rene Roubicek (1922-2018) was a significant Czech glass artist and designer, renowned for his innovative work with glass. Roubicek studied at the State Graphic School in Prague and then at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague (UMPRUM), where he specialized in architectural glass. Roubceek gained fame for his ability to transform glass into artistic and abstract forms. His work is characterized by experimentation with glass-blowing techniques, often combining various materials and using colorful glass. He focused on both functional and fine art, frequently creating large and complex glass objects that were installed in public spaces. Roubicek made a significant mark on the world stage with his installations for the Czechoslovak pavilion at Expo 58 exhibition, where he was awarded a gold medal for his work. He collaborated on numerous important projects where his glass objects played a central role, including designs for public buildings and international exhibitions. Roubicek is considered a pioneer of modern Czech glass art. His works are part of major collections and museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. Throughout his career, he received numerous awards reflecting his contributions to the development of glass art. His works continue to inspire new generations of glass artists, and his approach to experimenting with glass is recognized as a significant contribution to the craft. René Roubicek's art has had a profound impact on modern glass art, not only in the Czech Republic but also internationally. This original one of a kind item is in a perfect condition, glass is in excellent condition brass has minor age patina.
