Glass — news — Michael Endo

This summer I am excited to be teaching painting with glass techniques at Penland. This will be a comprehensive course covering the use of enamels, powdered glass, layered sheet glass, and frit to created multi-faceted and deeply-layered works in glass.

My work combines glass powder and frit painting, drawing processes adapted for kiln glass, and centuries-old glass painting techniques in the construction of multilayered atmospheric spaces and narratives. This workshop will focus on the techniques used in my practice and will encompass painting with glass powders, enamel painting adapted for high temperatures, and layered kilnforming along with printing and drawing techniques for kiln glass. All levels.

Bullseye Projects returns to London for Collect 2020, an international art fair for modern craft and design. Bullseye Projects is again presenting work by emerging and mid-career artists who have deep ties, either as alumni or faculty, to British art and design programs, including new work by Heike Brachlow, Celia Dowson, Joshua Kerley, Joanna Manousis, Anne Petters, and Karlyn Sutherland. Collect 2020 will be held, for the first time, at Somerset House. To celebrate this change of venue, Bullseye Projects will debut a collaboration with London-based wood carver Zeinab Harding inspired by the architecture of this unique and historic building. Bullseye Projects presentation at Collect 2020 is curated by Michael Endo.

Organized by the Crafts Council, Collect is the only gallery-presented art fair dedicated to modern craft and design. Through the years Collect has been instrumental in defining and growing the market for contemporary craft. Collect celebrates over 400 artists presented by galleries coming from across the globe to this London stage, showcasing exceptional works in ceramics, glass, metal, wood and textiles to makers working in non-traditional materials with experimental techniques.
