Katharine Coleman  Whole people.

I must congratulate, and I do it with all my enthusiasm, neighbors of the Tarragona town of Vimbodí in general and its Mayor, Joan Güell, in particular for successfully hosting this year's III Festival of Glass Craftsman.

On page 5 of this Bulletin a comprehensive description of the various events that have taken place during the celebration of the fair is done.

The various commercial establishments in the city offer their best products to visitors in large numbers, they came from different parts of the region to enjoy the event.

Local cultural groups also showed their good work in their various specialties.

In this year we could follow the development of the various acts through an effective and well designed playbill in which, besides including a map of the location, we were informed of the schedules of the various activities.

It is true that the undeniable success of the Fiesta contributed an excellent time allowed stroll through the different points of the town both day and night.

In my Glass Art Museum of Alcorcon visits guided I explain to the groups the differences between glass and glass, and let them put them graphically example of a block of ice, another glass and another glass. They seem made of the same material but are completely different.

Thus, the ice also had its presence at the fair for its similarity to the glass. The artist Ivan Lopez made us a magnificent sculpture of this material represents a "setril" oil in Castilian, from a good solid ice.

It is undeniable that the various components of the government team of the City of Vimbodí, with its Mayor, Joan Güell, head, have done a great and laborious work to make a success of the event this year and, in my opinion, I consider they have succeeded handsomely.

Congratulations for that.

III Glass Craft Festival in Vimbodí.

Volume II — Number 92

October 2016



The first weekend of the month of October was held in the Tarragona town of Vimbodí the Third Party Glass Artisan.

The opening of the festival was given by Minister of Enterprise and Knowledge of the Catalan government, Jordi Baiget.

Our President and our Secretary have enjoyed, as in previous editions, this intimate event, in which most of the local residents participate.

This third edition has brought together various recreational activities around the glazier work, as have been those dedicated to children, with children's workshops recycled glass, "taula amb jocs vidre", "L'emprenta the vidre" and storytellers.

At the Fair they have collaborated with displays of glass blowing four important Spanish glassmakers: Igor Obeso (Basque Country), Diego Rodríguez (La Granja, Segovia), Manuel Garcia (Almeria) and Ferran Collado (Barcelona), which were added to the glazier the municipality, Paco Ramos.

A novelty of this third edition of the Festival has been the appointment of the first window of honor. This year has received this distinction writer Empar Moliner. It is a recognition, glaziers and window of honor, which plans to have continuity for forthcoming editions of the Fair.

Another of the highlights was the musical part with Vitrumusical, concert by Binarium Duo, with Conrad Setó the keyboard and Roger Conesa with the saxophone, which have fused music with displays of the four glassmakers at night Saturday.

During the fair, the glass has shared the limelight with the ice in the activity of 1,000 ° to 0 °, in which the Barcelona artist Ivan Lopez created an ice sculpture representing a piece of those usually made in the museum of glass the locality, "Setrill", which in Castilian known as an oil.

Due to the large influx of visitors and for next year, the City Council will propose new ways of organizing the Party, as stated by the Mayor, Joan Güell, which you can see a suit in the image illustrating this Article.

In the Plaza Mayor a dozen tents were installed for various local craftsmen could provide the public with their work.

One of these craftswomen, the stained glass artist Loli Lafuente, offered on Sunday afternoon at the Civic Center a magnificent conference on "The magic of stained glass", which was followed with great interest by a large audience.

Artist Klaus Moje, who founded the Glass Workshop at the Australian National University School of Art, has died at the age of 79 after a few months of ill health.

Considered a giant in the world glass art scene and the "grandfather" of Australian studio glass, Moje pioneered a fused glass technique using specially developed glass rods.

Invited to set up a glass program at ANU in 1982, he created a workshop program unlike any others at the time, focused on fusing and coldworking techniques, rather than just glassblowing.

Klaus Moje, Untitled, 2010.

Fused and cold worked glass. Photo: Rob Little It was a program that emphasised technical skill as much as conceptual thinking, and today, the ANU's Glass Workshop is considered a leading glass centre.

Current head of workshop Richard Whitely said Moje began Canberra's glass art trajectory "on a very different page to what had existed, particularly in North America, until that time."

"He really empowered the individual student to develop their own voice rather than just mimic other people's processes," he said.

Moje was also instrumental in setting up the Canberra Glassworks in the former Kingston Powerhouse in 2007,

following a concerted campaign for a workshop and gallery for the capital's emerging glass artists.

Fused and cold worked glass.

Photo: Rob Little Photo: Rob Little Today, it's an institution that has attracted an increasingly dazzling array of new and established glass artists from Australia and around the world.

On the occasion of the Glassworks' seventh anniversary two years ago, Moje said the institution had become far bigger than could ever have been imagined.

"It was an overwhelming project but it's got international interest in the Glassworks, which is fantastic," he said.

"Here we are now with an institution where everyone can come and see glass art, do glass art and the art prospers. We still have the feeling that we are only at the beginning of what we can achieve."

He said the Glassworks had helped make Canberra a tourist drawcard and destination for artists.

"The prospect of the next few years is quite fascinating. We have opened a door to the indigenous community, we have opened the door to international artists involved in our work, so the sun is shining onto us," he said.

Moje also maintained a prolific

www.amigosmava.org

practice throughout his career, exhibiting in group and solo exhibitions all over the world.

He retired from teaching more than two decades ago, and had been living and working on the south coast until his illness.

He was appointed an honorary Officer of the Order of Australia in 2006 for his service to visual arts.

Arts curator Nola Anderson said Moje would remain in the memories of countless Canberrans who had learned from him.

"There are so many students who would remember his mentoring," she said.

"You only have to look at how many people were exhibited in the Glassworks from ANU to see how many Canberra connections he had."

Born in Germany in 1936 to a family of glass workers, he studied glass art Rheinbach and Hadamr, and began his artistic career creating carved and polished glass sculptures, before discovering fused glass techniques that would come to define his work.

His works are held in hundreds of private collections, and in more than 60 public collections both in Australia and internationally, including the National Gallery of Australia, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The Victoria & Albert has become one of the brands most sold in England due to an intelligent and clever combination of science, fun and good taste, explained from the National Museum of Decorative Arts, located in Montalban, close to Retirement.

It is no coincidence that our museum wants to look in its English namesake. Although smaller dimensions interest in wanting to share, plus the history of design, to approximate the trends and innovations that arise in the world.

Ethics in conservation and restoration (III).

Volume II — Number 92

October 2016

By Fernando CortĂŠs Pizano.

Unfortunately, the exercise of self-criticism is very rare in our profession.

I would not dare to write about professional ethics while trying to be infallible.

We should all examine our consciences before dare to criticize colleagues.

In fact, I myself, with specific training in conservationrestoration and many years of experience in my particular field of work-the window-I do not dare deny that once may have made and make mistakes.

We all know that some associations related to the field of conservation and restoration have developed codes of ethics, but in reality these associations do not have the power of enforcement or prosecution for the actions of its members.

These are not subject to legal liability, understood as the potential liability that may result in the payment of damages or lead to legal actions.

Studies regulated in an unregulated profession

A first and important step to remedy this situation has been I will not deny having caused the creation and regulation of damage to any work during the approved studies in exercise of my profession.

Conservation and Restoration Small errors and minor in recent decades and within damage, but errors and the educational framework of damage after all. Or the same the European Community. professional experts In this sense, it is important to conservation and restoration remember the are infallible, let alone those recommendations of E.C.C.O. without specific training, which (European Confederation of can cause serious damage to a Conservator-Restorers of): work during the course of their The minimum level to enter the work. profession as conservative And yet, the reality is that our qualified restorer must be at profession is not really linked to the level of the Master (or a universal code that is recognized equivalent). "mandatory" compliance or internal rules that impose legal This should be achieved through a period of full-time sanctions. study in conservationrestoration of at least 5 years

at a college (or in a recognized equivalent level) and should include well-structured external practices.

It should be continued by the possibility of study to PhD level.

The theoretical education and practical training are of great importance and should be arranged evenly.

After passing a final exam the candidate is awarded a degree or a diploma. You are also given a reference to the specializations studied.

Depending on national situations, it may also be relevant to assess professional practice to confirm the ability of conservator-restorers to work, ethically and competently in their specialization.

All this, however, is not enough. And that's where we get to the essence of the problem: while studies in conservation are regulated in many European countries (although many of them without EU coordination), however the profession of conservatorrestorer is not, at least in most countries, including Spain.

To be totally fair, as far as I know, only in nine countries of the European Community it is governed our profession ....

On the occasion of the presentation of the study entitled "The stained glass windows of the Cathedral of Burgos" prepared by Pilar Alonso, the director general has analyzed the needs of the main burgalés temple.

Immaculate, one of the common themes among Spanish Golden Age artists to express successive ideals of feminine beauty.

The selection of these works, dated from the 1630s and 1680s, lets see how the representation of the theme of the Immaculate Conception oscillated between two versions: one that emphasizes privacy, meditation and concentration, and featuring baroque formulas by dynamic and colorful compositions.

On display the earliest Immaculate donation will meet and guarding the Prado, both of Zurbaran, whose comparison allows to know the different iconographic and compositional alternatives that the painter was raised at the beginning of his career before formal concentration and emotional introspection which entered the museum in 1956, from the donation Arango is expansive and is notable for the wide flight of his robe.

Another major, José Clemente Orozco, sublimated in his paintings the agave plant native of fleshy leaves, and then make photographer Manuel Alvarez Bravo.

The exhibition also highlights names like Angel Zarraga, Agustin Lazo, Roberto Montenegro and Rufino Tamayo. His tone was not always laudatory. For example, David Alfaro Siqueiros and Francisco Goitia dug into the dark side of the Revolution, marked by death and destruction.

There are so lush trees that do not allow to see the forest. Something happened to Mexican art in the first half of the last century.

In his novel critical review of the history of the avant-Arteaga sets out a series of parallel stories that oppose the prevailing legend.

During the emergence of the pictorial vanguards, the glow that emanated names like Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo managed to outshine dozens of artists that official history has not retained.

The exhibition demolishes all the cliches about the art of that historic moment. Indigenism shows that did not start with the 1910 Revolution, nor the social sensitivity of Mexican artists.

A major exhibition at the Grand Palais in Paris runs a fresh look at that period to publicize its hidden face. Until January 23, the exhibition presents 200 works by 60 artists, reflecting a range which include both the stars mentioned as other supposedly secondary names, as well as representatives of half-forgotten collective aesthetic currents and little favored by the canon of art.

Clarifies that there were other women artists outside Kahlo and that not all painters were muralists who disdained the stand as bourgeois instrument. And it confirms that the Mexican modernists were not limited to copying European masters.

This ambitious exhibition subverts and expands. "The intention is to separate the cliches and deepen the reality of Mexican art, beyond the shadow of those Titans, who have hidden several generations of artists. This was not minimize its importance, but to offer a wider and propose a rebalancing scenario, "says the curator, Agustín Arteaga, new director of the Dallas Museum of Art, after having been the National Museum of Art (Munal) in Mexico City.

They preferred to create a vanguard itself. "A national art drinking and headed past utopianly forward, becoming spokesman for the revolutionary ideals," said the commissioner.

The project had an undeniable ideological. The art was used to reinforce the feeling of belonging to a people who began to nationhood.

While the rebels were fighting for fair distribution of land and wages, painting also began to speak the language of utopia. Workers and peasants became artistic subjects of the first order, which served to vindicate an ideal of social justice.

But in general, art filled with flowers and fruit. Olga Costa, painter of Ukrainian origin who arrived in Mexico at age 12, exemplified in the fruit seller, almost a botanical encyclopedia of local varieties in which costs not see a political message.

The exhibition explores the generations of women who became overshadowed by Kahlo, claimed as feminist myth from the seventies.

The exhibition takes the contrapié that "blind worship" in the words of the curator. In the room dedicated to painting made by women, six works

by Kahlo occupy an almost junior corner.

Instead, less known names stands out as the Dolores Olmedo, Tina Modotti, Nahui Olin or Rosa Rolanda.

Also Lola Alvarez Bravo, author of a photographic work as interesting as her husband, and Maria Izquierdo, a painter who had haunted André Breton, who saw in his work "a world in formation", made of "cold lava in the penumbra of the volcano. " After all, for the team leader of the movement, Mexico was "the Surrealist place par excellence".

The first Soviet polyhedral glass was manufactured in the glassworks of Gus-Jrustalny the September 11, 1943.

The author of the design was Vera Mukhina, a famous Soviet sculptor famous for creating the monument Worker and Kolkhoz, presented to the world at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1937.

The shape of the glass is not due to the creativity of its author: it is a form that suited perfectly to the new Soviet dishwasher 40s, which could only wash utensils certain shape and size.

Soviet vessels differed in the number of faces (10, 12, 16, etc.), but the way was always the same: the polyhedral part was topped by a glass smooth edge.

This provided a more robust product.

Besides being resistant, glass was manufactured with a special technology (even at a time when lead was added) and was very thick.

machinery was introduced and the technology was lost.

Soviet love for the polyhedral glass house was indispensable: helped them to measure liquids In the years of government Nikita and food grains, even in the Khrushchev (1953-1964) books of Soviet cuisine volumes government, in a struggle were measured in cups and not against alcoholism, forbade in grams. selling vodka in bulk and in small quantities.
