Glass art is a relatively new medium to the Australian public as hanging art and sculpture, and is well established with many internationally recognized artists. This has brought the attention of the Australian public to the medium of glass. At present, we represent 18 glass artists. Our artists are striving to push the limits of methodology and surface finish. Most work with traditional shapes, extending to minimalism.
Most experimental work involves color and surface treatments, both hot and cold.
Some are working with interpretive surface designs representing the Australian landscape. Recently, there has been a movement towards larger pieces, however this has had mixed reception locally, due to the cost and buyer resistance. The public is most interested in modern functional work. The public seems less interested in work by traditional sources like Venice. Lately, there seems to be a definite movement towards simplicity, which may be cost driven.
