Topic: Discussion about Magic of Glass - Å krdlovice glasswork 1940 - 2008 Exhibition

[dirk.]

From 26th June to 27th September 2009 is in Pardubice castle - Czech republic exhibition Å krdlovice magie skla (http://www.czecot.com/en/tourist-attraction/6856_pardubice-eastern-bohemia-museum-chateau-pardubice). You can see there more than 400 pieces from approx. 4000 fabricated in Skrdlovice since 1940 up to the end of fabrication last year.
Very good reason for visiting Czech republic this summer.

Hi Dirk,
unfortunately they did not publish any catalogue, but I was allowed to make a photoes of everything. If you know how to share my pictures with other glass lovers at web, I will place it somewhere. I have no time to investigate available options now.

hi Jindrich,
how about creating an album on Anne´s glassgallery?
http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/
there´s a glass fairs & events section there.
if you wish any help, you can use the envelope button!

Jindrich we'd be delighted to add them to a new album on GlassGallery. You can always email pics to me directly for adding as you're busy.

Thanks for the notice of what looks like a fabulous exhibition. If I lived in Europe, I'd be there in a flash. It would be great to see the photographs of the pieces.

Thank you for hints Anne and Dirk.
I will try to do my best, if I will not be able to do it alone I will send you pictures. I suppose that Dirk will come and see it - Pardubice (and all Czech republic) is in the middle of Germany in fact  .

Excellent post Jindrich,

thank you very much for bringing us these images. The glass is brilliantly displayed (and photographed). It shows how much creativity was going on at just one factory over a long period of time. It will take a while just to look at the photos and compute it all mentally! Thanks again Jindrich,

Thanks for all the photographs of some fabulous glass. The range of glass from Skrdlovice is way beyond what I expected. The exhibition really does deserve a catalogue.

Thanks again.
