First Museum Screening of Flower & Flame
Artist and Director Discussion After Each Screening
Wednesday, January 31 | 2:00 & 7:30 PM
Tickets: $18.00 | Members: $15.00
Tomorrow, don't miss the new film documentary that
investigates the life of internationally acclaimed artist and pioneer
in the Studio Glass Movement, Paul Stankard. Hear a discussion with the
artist Paul Stankard and the director Dan Collins directly after each
screening. Come early to see the
exhibition during
its final week—gallery admission is included with your ticket!
For more than 60 years, Paul Stankard has been dedicated
to interpreting nature in flameworked glass, pushing the boundaries of
the centuries-old paperweight tradition to create a new kind of glass
genre altogether. His work is exhibited in more than 70 museums
throughout the world, and he is considered a living master of his art
form. Paul was trained in scientific glass but sacrificed a promising
career to pursue his passion. Since then, he has received two honorary
doctorate degrees and many awards within the glass community. He is the
author of four books and has been instrumental in the development of
glassblowing programs and scholarship funds at Salem County Community
College, Urban Arts (NYC) and Wheaton Arts (NJ).
