About this title

Synopsis

"Primarily, this book is a book about the artist, Bertil Vallien, and his glass sculptures, which were forged during a period of freedom and independent creativity - a direction which he has continued to pursue since the end of the 1980s. Since this is an on-going process, the book can only serve to take a bearing, rather than to summarize an artistic career in its entirety. The many years in which I have been documenting his art are characterized by a constant renewal of the artistic resolution, and further exploration of the medium of sand-casted glass. Vallien is one of a handful of talented glass artists who enjoy worldwide fame." Gunnar Lundqvist
