Dear Friends,
Join us! Raise your paddle to support Pilchuck Glass School. Teaching artists, sharing knowledge, learning through collaboration – these are the core values of Pilchuck Glass School. Artists from over sixty countries congregate at our campus in the foothills above Puget Sound to learn, teach, collaborate, experiment and create.
“Pilchuck” and glass are synonymous. It is difficult to think of another organization so associated with a field of study. Our school has always been an extraordinary place. It takes on special prominence in light of Pilchuck’s fortieth birthday this year and next year’s fiftieth anniversary of the studio glass movement.
Through workshops, residencies, conferences and outreach programs, Pilchuck offers the highest level of education in the diverse uses of glass as a creative material. Your investment in our school directly supports the future of the field.
Throughout the years, Pilchuck’s Annual Auction has represented the highest quality in contemporary glass sculpture. The artists who generously donate their best works of art give back to a school that has supported their professional development. By making a purchase at the auction or by giving to Fund-the-Future, you are playing an important role in ensuring that Pilchuck continues to thrive for the next four decades and beyond.
During the auction, you will have the opportunity to contribute to Pilchuck’s legacy helping to insure that the school will continue to lead the education of artists working in glass.
Here are examples of how your contribution impacts artists:
The incredible vision forty years ago to train artists to make glass, to bring together in one place diverse aesthetic traditions, and to build an open and supportive community always stretching the medium’s creative potential are the foundation of Pilchuck. We deeply appreciate your role in supporting this vision by participating in our auction.
$50,000 provides financial aid for highly talented students to afford this life-changing education.
$25,000 fuels our energy-efficient furnaces to melt glass for students, instructors, assistants and artists in residence.
Finally, we offer thanks for the dedication and work of so many who make this auction possible – the hundreds of generous artists, the auction chairs and committee, the trustees, volunteers, staff…and you!
$10,000 funds honoraria and travel for renowned instructors to lead innovative programs.
$5,000 underwrites creative leaders from a variety of fields to participate as artists in residence.
With sincere thanks,
2011 Fund-the-Future

We honor them for their roles in founding Pilchuck Glass School, along with Dale Chihuly, forty years ago. In addition to John and Anne, we also honor the entire Hauberg family for the roles they have played in developing cultural institutions and supporting leading artists of the Pacific Northwest.

Pilchuck Glass School
The Hauberg Legacy
In 1971, Anne and John supported Dale Chihuly’s vision of a glass-blowing
Anne and John’s daughter, Fay Hauberg Page, reflects on the symbiotic relationship between her family and Pilchuck:
program in the Pacific Northwest. The Haubergs provided a site
for the fledgling program on the Pilchuck Tree Farm as well as crucial financial support. The success of the first summer session led the
Haubergs to continue underwriting the workshops. “Pilchuck School”
was incorporated as a non-profit in 1976 (“Glass” would be added later)
and a permanent campus was constructed on land deeded to the school by the Haubergs. Throughout the 1980s, even as an administrative and
fundraising structure developed, the Haubergs remained deeply involved
14
in the school’s operations. Their personal leadership and financial support eased Pilchuck’s growing pains and laid the foundation for the school’s long-term success.
“Mom was always sensitive to allowing an artistic or creative person to pursue what they were interested in without trying to squelch it.”
“A lot of the things that my dad and mom touched came to fruition and in positive ways.” “I miss my dad a lot; he had an energy that not too many people had.” “We’re honored to be part of Pilchuck and very grateful so many wonderful people have taken up the banner to carry it on and get it to its 40th year. It’s just amazing – in 1971 no one in their right mind had any idea
that Pilchuck would develop as it has and it is completely due to Dale’s dedication, my mother’s assistance
in supporting creativity and artists, and my dad’s financial and business talents. The school is very lucky that my parent’s had a huge circle of friends and business people who believed in their vision.”

“The concept for the ‘leavessels’ as centerpieces originated in the seasonal budding of leaves, or natural cyclical process of growth and regeneration. The fractal patterns created when leaves nestle, combined with the gestural and jutting effect they create when stacked, provided a dynamic design which yields one of a kind pieces. Metaphorically speaking, over the past forty years Pilchuck has been a place where larger than life leaves (instructors and masters) assist in generating new growth or budding young glass artists. In this process the talent or energy that ensues is exponentially amplified. This idea has always been at the core of the school’s philosophy.” Rob Stern began his career in glass in 1988 at California State University, San Francisco, and earned a M.F.A. degree in glass sculpture at the University of Miami, Florida. From 1989-1994, Rob worked and designed for the industrial glass-casting studio of John Lewis Glass in Oakland, California. He began attending Pilchuck Glass School in 1989 on a partnership scholarship and has returned annually to train, work and teach. In 1992, he developed a close apprenticeship with Czech glass master Petr Novotny and in 1994 moved to the Czech Republic to work in Novotny’s Ajeto factory. Rob has been an invited artist at the tri-annual International Glass Symposiums in Novy Bor, Czech Republic, in 2003, 2006 and 2009 where he has completed several permanent outdoor sculptures.
About the centerpieces
About the Benefactor gifts “This year’s Benefactor gifts each have a unique aesthetic. The design allows for many variations of the same theme, so each piece is slightly different but all share a common motif.” Beccy Feather, British born, first visited America specifically to study at Pilchuck Glass School. Since then she has returned as a student, teaching assistant and artist’s assistant. Her experiences at Pilchuck propelled her to pursue a M.F.A. degree at Rochester Institute of Technology in upstate New York. Her time on the Pilchuck campus initiated a love of American glass making concepts and community. After completing her studies, Beccy worked at The University of the Arts, Philadelphia as a glass studio supervisor and now works at Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center in Millville, New Jersey.
From 1997-2003 Rob led the glass program at the University of Miami, Florida, as well as leading workshops at numerous universities and glass schools including Penland School of Crafts, North Carolina, Urban Glass, New York, Bildwerk, Germany, and The Glass Furnace, Turkey. In 2003 he established Rob Stern Art Glass Inc. where he and his team execute commissions and architectural projects. Since that time Rob and his studio have been doing custom work for the glass import firm Oggetti, primarily cold-working sculptures by Dino Rosin. Most recently, Rob was selected as the 2011 Pilchuck auction centerpiece designer and led a team of thirty artists in producing more than 100 unique and distinctive centerpieces. We are honored to have Rob Stern as our 33rd Annual Auction Centerpiece designer. Thank you Rob!

Pilchuck provides the most promising artists in the world with the opportunity to expand their art through collaboration and individual research. During each summer session, two established artists who typically work in media other than glass are invited to work with accomplished glassmakers. Together, they work to interpret and execute the residents’ ideas in glass. Each fall, six emerging artists are provided with the space and time to develop a new process or create a new body of work. Professional artists use Pilchuck’s studios in winter or early spring to generate new or challenging work. The John H. Hauberg Fellowship, a spring residency, encourages collaboration among a group of established artists. Pilchuck’s outreach and special events connect our community of generous supporters and introduce the school to audiences who might not normally visit Pilchuck’s rural campus. During Spring Tours and our annual Open House, visitors to the campus gain a deeper understanding of the school by watching artists work with glass. Participants in our annual Auction Tour are invited into artists’ studios and collectors’ homes, where they have a photo: Russell Johnson

Many glassblowers strive to make the perfect goblet. They often make goblets as an exercise to develop and understand hot glass and to find satisfaction in successfully composing an object of technical complexity. Each part of a goblet is tremendously challenging; creating a perfectly blown foot, the most attenuated avoglio (the connector bit between the cup, stem, and foot), and the thinnest lip. If one takes into consideration the skill-driven goals and the total years of experience that go into each cup, one can begin to appreciate the goblets as artifacts of accomplishment, as well as a learning experience. You can participate in the Goblet Project by purchasing a one-of-a-kind goblet to add to your collection: a fantastic way to support Pilchuck!

79 AD 11 x 5 x 5 inches Signed - 2008 Deeply engraved blown glass, copper
$25,000 Extraordinarily beautiful and elegant, Michael Glancy’s sculptures reveal his exacting struggles towards perfection. Drawing inspiration from natural macro- and micro-environments, Glancy translates cellular landscapes into elegant jewel-toned sculptural objects. Made with blown and plate glass, copper, bronze, silver, and gold, his works reference science, biology, molecular physics, and mathematics. Glancy’s process of electroforming metal and glass is both magical and scientific, so much so that he walks a fine line between alchemy and art. The hand-carved surface details—intricate and complex—are extraordinary in skill.

$1,700 Danny White received his B.F.A. degree in painting from Bowling Green State University. He has found a deep understanding of glass as a material by approaching it much as he would painting. “My goal is to enable these works to emit the same energy and imagination I thrive on while I create them.” White’s aesthetic and knowlegde of the color palette bring his works to life. His glass sculptures radiate an energy that makes them intriguing, not just for their composition, but for their form and face. Danny White: iamdannywhite@gmail.com
Armelle Bouchet O’Neill is a French-born artist who has lived and worked in Seattle since 2009, after completing her studies at the Danish Design School. She was selected for the Lino Tagliapetra Award to attend Pilchuck Glass School in 2007 and the Takako Sano Grant from the Glass Art Society to attend the Glass Art Society conference in Portland, Oregon in 2008. She was a recipient of the Art Bridge Fellowship from the Pratt Fine Arts Center in Seattle. She recently completed a residency at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma. The inspiration for her recent work stems from the research of the microcosmic architecture of insects and also from varying forms of metamorphosis: vegetal and animal. O’Neil uses glass as a vehicle for this exploration by exploiting intrinsic optical properties as well as the potential for myriad textures; her work draws from the natural world. Often matte, translucent and distressed, she seeks to challenge the viewer’s perceptions of the origin of the piece.

Jennifer Umphress was born and raised in California, and in 1991 after visiting Hawaii and falling in love with its beauty it became her home. She began her career in glass in 2000 working and apprenticing in a small studio retail shop in the Islands. Umphress expanded her knowledge by attending Sundance Art Center in Santa Cruz, California, and studying traditional concepts of glass, in Murano, Italy, under Cesare Toffolo. Since then she has had the opportunity to take workshops from Robert Mickelsen, Janis Miltenberger and Richard LaLonde. In 2006 she relocated to Kingston, Washington, hoping that the Northwest will provide as much influence for her as Hawaii has. Umphress’ work is constantly changing and evolving, but she still draws her biggest influence from the islands and ocean that surrounded her for so long.

$9,000
6.75 x 21 x 5.75 inches Signed - 1998 Cast glass
$12,000 Bertil Vallien is most renowned as the great master of sandcasting. His metres-long ships are prized by collectors, and his work is represented in the leading museums of the United States, Europe and Japan. Early on he discovered that glass is a difficult material. He says, “but one that offers a richness of possibility with its marriage of extremes: heat and cold, light and dark.” The idea of cast ship forms and the symbolic idiom he employs came to him in the late eighties. The ship is a perfect vessel for the expression of loneliness. It is evocative of femininity, adventure, catastrophe, a thin protective shell that demands the absolute respect of all aboard. It is a society in isolation, a self-contained world afloat on the sea.
Ben Edols and Kathy Elliott produce luminous, elegantly blown or solidworked carved glass vessels and sculptures reminiscent of the graceful curves and proportions of the large palm leaves that fall from the trees near their home in Australia. “We wanted to create sculptural forms with a beautiful tension and sense of rhythm, while at the same time exploiting the wonderful qualities of the glass, especially its ability to display color and texture through light,” says Elliott.

A descendant in a long line of glassworkers, Davide Salvadore has lived on the Venetian island of Murano since he was born in 1953. At a very early age, he followed his grandfather, Antonio, and his grandfather’s friend - the respected maestro Alfredo Barbini - into the island’s world-famous glass factories. As a youth, he assisted at several prestigious glass houses, including Venini and Barovier & Toso, before joining his mother in the family business of designing and selling glass jewelry. In 1987, Salvadore founded his own studio on Murano, which he continues to operate today. Using equipment he designed and built himself, he creates passionately expressive one-of-a-kind sculptures that push the boundaries of centuries-old traditions.

Silvered Soft Cylinder with Tangerine Lip Wrap 18 x 18 x 14 inches Signed - 2010 Blown glass
$32,000 Dale Chihuly was born in 1941 in Tacoma, Washington and became captivated by glass while pursuing a bachelor’s degree in interior design from the University of Washington. He moved on to study in the hot glass program at the University of Wisconsin, and continued his studies at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, where he eventually joined the faculty. In 1971, Chihuly co-founded the legendary Pilchuck Glass School. In 1976, a car accident left Chihuly without sight in one eye. This, along with a shoulder injury a few years later, limited his physical ability to blow glass. Refining a collaborative system developed in his earliest years as a glassblower and harkening back to teams of glassblowers in Murano, Italy, Chihuly works with a team that includes master glassblowers from around the world. He often uses his vigorous drawings to communicate his vision for a specific work. Pushing the limits of the material, he has led his team in the creation of pieces that surpassed all expectations – in the use of color, technique and scale. Dale Chihuly: www.chihuly.com

Vase with Flying Figure 18.75 x 18.75 inches Signed - 2008 Blown, painted glass

The artist Anna Skibska has not only invented a powerful style, but she has pursued its possibilities with courageous wit and a range of aesthetic programs that never fall short of brilliant. Skibska’s glass matrix fascinates. She produces her pieces by using a torch to stretch and bend slender glass canes into delicate sculptures. The style immediately draws natural forms to mind - spider webs, crystals, honeycombs, and so on. With Skibska’s spiritedly romantic mind and academic educations, the matrices grow into forms that mingle poetically and thoughtfully with the world. Skibska’s forms often allude to materials radically different than her delicate glasswork - a tower, a door, a window or event a stone. The irony is beautiful and because it lacks any hint of heavyhandedness it is intelligent and alluring. Anna Skibska: annaskibska@annaskibska.com www.annaskibska.com

$1,500 Following twelve months of post graduate studies in painting and lithography in Mexico, Waine Ryzak began working with several fineart glass technologies in the early 1970s. After attending a conference on art glass in Dublin, she was part of the pioneering developments in contemporary glass ideas, design and technologies at Pilchuck Glass School. Ryzak’s new sculptures of archetypal forms reflect her interest in the biophilia hypothesis, the suggestion that there is a natural link between human beings and other living systems in her contribution to a new human (and humane) consciousness. Ryzak’s new glass sculptures reflect two of her deepest concerns—her affinity for the life rhythms of nature as a metaphor of a pre-human spirituality, and her art practice as a metaphor of her continually striving for wisdom and knowledge she can share with others through her art.

Fantasy
$4,400
2 x 17.5 x 17.5 inches Signed - 2011 Hot-worked, fused, kiln-formed, coldworked glass
Born in 1982, Raven Skyriver began blowing glass in high school at the age of sixteen. His mentor, Lark Dalton, taught him how to build glass blowing equipment, and trained him in venetian techniques, enabling him to build his own shop. He joined the William Morris team at Karen Willenbrink-Johnsen’s request. He remained part of the team for the following seven years, learning sculptural glass. Since William Morris’ retirement, Skyriver has continued to focus on sculpture. His depictions of marine life are inspired by his island upbringing, and informed by the creatures that inhabit this fragile ecosystem.

Birch Coil 35 x 24 x .5 inches Signed - 2000 Water-jet cut glass, enamels
$2,400 Birch Coil is one of a series of turbulent shapes by which Becky Fletcher continues to be intrigued. She was originally trained as an illustrator at the Art Institute of Boston, then with a move to northern California she fell into a career of commissioned work in painted and stained glass. The Skagit Valley has been her home since 1984 where she also paints in oils. But whatever the medium, she works “to make present, to represent some vital element, a rhythm, a contrast, a contour,” in a gesture toward the restlessness of being and becoming, ever in progress.

4016 - Hilal Hibri
Glacial Ocean 14 x 8 x 2.5 inches Signed - 2011 Cast, polished glass
$2,250 Hilal Hibri’s art is elegance crystallized. He is driven by a cosmic itch to distill the underlying vitality of nature into tangible objects that are uniquely beautiful. Seduced by the unpredictable journey of creation, he does not attempt to “conquer” his medium. Instead, his sculpting unfolds itself to him through a spontaneous process that could be called “Zen sculpting.” Hilal follows streams of energy, gleaned from the nature of his sculpting material, to their logical end points, creating curves and sinews. Using innovative sculpting techniques and “found tools” he has evolved the tedious processes of glass casting to become more immediate and direct. His pioneering style infuses classic sculpture with the efficiencies and capabilities of digital art. Hilal’s pieces provide a momentary meditation as the eye passes over bubbles and colors frozen in time. Through this, he freezes grace. He makes the moment ornate.

4023 - Jim Vollmer
Patches with Stripes 16 x 18 x 4 inches Signed - 2008 Fused glass, metal stand
$2,700 Through his twenty-four years of fusing glass, Jim Vollmer found that glass runs the range of style and design from “less is more” to “God is in the details.” He chooses to follow the latter. Detail of design, detail of surface texture, and detail in visual effects are what dominate his fusing. His latest work, Tapestry, takes the use of a stringer in a more complex direction. By creating pattern bars with the stringer, slicing, assembling and fusing them, Vollmer utilizes the optic qualities to create a pointillist effect.

$3,000 John Reed received a B.F.A. degree in sculpture and a M.S. degree in interior design at Oklahoma State University.

Nives Marcassoli was born in Ranica, Italy where she obtained her diploma in fashion design. During the 1990s, she was introduced to the world of glass, and began making decorative glass panes and decorations for interiors. She continued to study glass fusing techniques and worked with numerous artists - in 1992 with the Swiss artist Jirg Kleiner and from 1994 on with the Italo-Argentinian Miriam Di Fiore. In 2005, she participated in a residential class in hot-cast glass, taught by Mitchell Gaudet, at Pilchuck Glass School. In 2010 her sculpture, GICHI SOSPESI (Suspended Games), was placed inside the Nuovo Centro Culturale “Roberto Gritti” in Ranica. This work presents Marcassoli’s insight on infancy, game and child labor in the last century and nowadays. The study of drawing and picture joins the experience in glassfusing, light painting and hot shop creating the technique “fused cast glass hot-worked” as named by Marcassoli herself.

No statement made in this catalog, orally at the auction, or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. The values listed are estimates of fair market value provided by the artists. Items have not been appraised.
The auctioneer will invite you to hold up your card to pledge $100, $250, $500, $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000 toward this cause.

You will pay for your pledge along with your auction purchases.
Silent Auction The four sections of the Silent Auction open at 5:00 P.M. They close at staggered times throughout the evening. (See page 11). Each item offered in the Silent Auction will have a bid form placed near it. Make a bid by writing your bidder number opposite the amount you wish to bid on the form. Please press hard—you are making three copies. You may take the next available amount on the form or skip ahead to a higher bid range. If you emerge as the highest bidder at the close of the auction, your bid constitutes a legal contract to purchase the item.
Minimum Bid A minimum bid has been established for each Silent Auction item. You may not bid below this amount.
Guaranteed Bid To place a guaranteed bid in the Silent Auction, enter your bid number in the box next to the “Guaranteed Purchase” price. This will instantly make you the successful bidder and owner of the piece.
Silent Auction Closing You may bid on an item in any Silent Auction section until that section is closed. At the posted closing
time, a Silent Auction closer will circle the winning bid on each form and collect the forms. A notice announcing the successful bidder will be left in place near the piece so that you may check on the bidding results. After the Silent Auction closes, any unsold items will be moved to the Purple Section of the Silent Auction for continued bidding.
In the event of a dispute over a Silent Auction bid, oral bids may be taken at the discretion of the auctioneer—but only from those who have already placed written bids. The auctioneer will determine the winning bid and the decision will be final.
Centerpiece Silent Auction When the ballroom doors open at 5:00 P.M., you will have the opportunity to participate in the Centerpiece Silent Auction. You may bid on any centerpiece displayed on any table. You may not remove bid sheets from the tables during the auction or move centerpieces to other tables.
Following Live Auction item 20, the Centerpiece Silent Auction will close and winning bids will be circled on the centerpiece bid sheets. If you are a successful bidder for a centerpiece, collect your purchase through the regular checkout process once the auction is over. Express Pay™ bidders will receive a copy of the bid sheets at their tables and may pick up their centerpieces from the Art Pickup Room or arrange for shipping as they leave.
All centerpieces will be removed from the tables after the close of the centerpiece silent auction. Unsold centerpieces will be moved to the Purple Section of the Silent Auction. Procedures for purchase of unsold centerpieces will be the same as those for Silent Auction items.
Live Auction You may preview Live Auction items in the Fifth Avenue Room of The Westin Seattle from the time the doors open
at 4:45 pm, until the start of the Live Auction at 7:15 pm. Once the Live Auction begins, the Fifth Avenue Room will be converted to the Art Pickup Room and items will no longer be available for viewing. The Live Auction will begin during dinner and continue without interruption until all items have been auctioned.
How the Auction Works To bid in the Live Auction, hold your bid card high with the number facing the auctioneer. Either the auctioneer or a bid spotter can accept your bid. The auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bid acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be deemed a legal contract with that bidder to purchase the item.
Checkout Only cash, personal checks, or Visa, MasterCard, and American Express credit cards will be accepted as payment. Debit cards will not be accepted. Successful Express Pay™ bidders will receive a copy of their bid forms at their table shortly after the close of bidding for the items. They may then proceed directly to the Art Pickup Room to collect their purchases or can make shipping arrangements before departing. If you are not an Express Pay™ bidder, you must stop at the Checkout Table anytime after 9:00 P.M. to receive a statement of your purchases and make your payment. You may then collect your purchases at the Art Pickup Room or make shipping arrangements. All purchases are final, and purchased items must be paid for and removed from the premises during the evening. Items that are not removed or are left in the care of the shipping company will be shipped to the purchaser at his/her expense. No exchanges or refunds will be allowed.
