Landscape I.
uranium glass, engraved, black enamel paint, signed and dated M. Volráb 2003, height 17 cm
Published: Studioglass journal, Spring 2004, p. 24 - color photograph of the work
After studying at the Glassmaking Secondary School in Kamenický Šenov, he studied in prof. Libenský’s studio at the VŠUP in Prague, where he graduated in 1988. Between 1990 and 2008, he was prof. Vladimír Kopecký’s professional assistant at the VŠUP in Prague. Besides teaching, the author is also a freelance artist. He likes to work with the technique of engraving, which he tries to use in a raw way, without superficial decorative aims. In the 1990s, he created a group of objects out of layered glass. They generally have a simple geometric shape; everything essential is on the surface. Thanks to cutting and other techniques, the author makes clefts, openings, notches and thus creates structures that are remotely inspired by landscape. As he claims “.I create a fascinating panorama of an archetypal looking landscape.” The vase on offer is more intimate in size, but is a classic example of his work.
