The Body Adorned

The show came out beautifully. Thank you all who participated. We're so pleased we are going to repeat this for December, so plan your pieces now. Below are some overview pictures of the show and details. I made the displays in the shape of mirrors as they are what we look into for placement and jewelry is a reflection of ourselves. I plan on adding more for December.

Dale Inglett


August 09 we had a screening of one of Dale Inglett's videos. the wonderfully watery shifting shadow image of the swimmer was a beautiful compliment to the theme of much of the work inside the gallery. Dale Inglett lives and works in Alfred, NY. His work in painting, video and printmaking explores notions of self and the temporal nature of existence. More of his work can be seen at daleinglett.com

The Building



Last summer we showed the videos to the right of the building on a screen hung on the fence. We'd like to show it on the building, but we need to make sure we are not setting up a giant kite. If we are unable to affix the screen in some way without upsetting the powers that be we will show the videos to the right again.

BOING!



Mark Naylor sprung into our window for the month of May. Crazy curvaceous coils on springs. It's 3 looney tunes. Mark is currently completing graduate school toward a doctorate in glass science at Alfred University. His MS thesis involved research on full spectrum photosensitive glass-ceramics. His PhD thesis investigates viscous glass sealants for hydrogen powered electricity generation. Mark’s artwork will continue to explore motion and incorporate engineered ceramic and glass materials. And can yo believe he fit this in between it all? He did share with me that there was one night nap in the neon studio...whoops

The Hot Crack


Don Bruschi a sculptor and light artist framed our transom for the month of April. He is from the Hudson Valley, New York region. He creates and shows his own work while teaching art to young minds. More about hime and his work can be seen at donbruschi.com

The Body Adorned

Invitational- June Spotlight on Art Jewelry

For the month of June (the wedding month) we, at Hudson Beach Glass Phila, would like to spotlight some of the more creative, fanciful, avant guarde, and group arrangements of our jewelers. The cutorial statement is below along with the important dates. Your work will be displayed in cases and hung on the walls for the month of June. All unsold pieces will be returned at the end of the month. Please confirm via phone or email your participation and approximate number and types of work. Thank you for your participation.

Jewelry is as diverse as the people who wear it. It represents commitment, memory, and our own sense of style. It’s the charm necklace that contains her grandfathers’ dog tags. The cuff links he wears to set off his suit at the wedding. The jangling announcement each footfall makes from her anklet. Colorful barrettes that are the finishing touch to our latest style. Jewelry affects our lives whether we are paying homage to a loved one or defining ourselves. A subtle addition or a bold placement their significance defines our identity and it’s many facets. Because jewelry means nothing without the person it adorns.

Exhibition Date- June 2010
Delivery of Work- May 30th , 31st , or June 1st
Opening Reception- Friday June 4th 5:30-9:30pm
