(BARELY) TEMPERED: CONCEPTS IN TENSION

Curated by Richard Lombard
March 10 - April 22, 2023 | Opening Reception: March 10, 6 - 8 PM
Jane Lombard Gallery is pleased to present the group show (Barely) Tempered: Concepts in Tension, organized by Richard Lombard, independent curator of design. This cross-disciplinary show comprises works in glass that blur the boundaries of art and design, featuring objects by an international assemblage of artists, designers, and makers. Coming from a wide range of backgrounds, these practitioners take this fragile, multidimensional material and form fluid expressions across a range of concepts. From optically clear to fully opaque, razor-sharp edges to organic forms, dense to diaphanous, and every color of the rainbow – glass is the chameleon of materials, giving tremendous range to discourses on environmental changes, material interactions, and the immense potential in all organisms. Featured will be gallery artists James Clar, Kristin McIver, and Lucy + Jorge Orta, as well as Tomoko Amaki Abe, Adolf Gunther, Lukas Milanak, Thomas Modeen, Malin Pierre, Rui Sasaki, Silo Studio, and Cristina Vezzini and Stan Chen.
