On trend with this seasons Black and White films; a must show Peter Greenway’ s Intervals. Shot in 1969 this rare and sublime montage offers a taste into the incredible world that is Venezia.
Next month will see film maker and newcomer to glass Mat Flemings film at the National Glass Centre. Here is a snap shot!
To celebrate the first 500 hits at aaronglassdj YouTube we added another three episodes of Layne Rowe making a classic Peter Layton Skyline vase.
Yeah here’s the introductory video as promised. These first few minutes show Layne pick up pieces of colour from the top loading kiln, heat and Marver. We shot at least half an hour of video. This introductory clip shows Layne preparing the start of what will become a Peter Layton Skyline vase. More to come
We are nearly at the end of what has been an amazing year! Before we wrap this up and dive into 2010 It would be rude not to give someone who deserves more than a mention. A master and one of the most accommodating people you’ re ever gonna meet. His name is Silvano and I have been fortunate enough to work with him in both of the previous years. If there are any artists/designers out there who want their ideas realising in glass this is the man!
