Glass Art Blog Launched!
Morris Raven Jar
This will be the first blog for Holsten Galleries. We have been very busy this week preparing our new William Morris catalog, featuring 16 different works from the ten-year period before Morris retired in 2007. I’m especially excited to be including one of the finest examples of the Crow and Raven series and also a very unsual example of the Suspended Artifact series. Bill had chosen both of these pieces to be put into his archives as outstanding examples of their respective series. We appreciate his willingness to release these two pieces which have been previously shown only in museum exhibitions. If you like, you can visit the Morris page of www.holstengalleries.com to see these and other pieces that will soon appear in our catalog.

We are thrilled with the support that Holsten Galleries are providing for the premier SOFA WEST event. Starting April 23rd in Santa Fe, there will be collector luncheons and cocktail hours to talk about contemporary studio art made with glass, ceramics, wood and fiber. These events are free and always include sophisticated collectors and exhibit curators. If you are interested in attended, please contact Betsy from the Glass Alliance – New Mexico website. Thank you Kenn for supporting SOFA WEST: Santa Fe.
Thanks for your appreciation, Betsy. I, in turn, salute YOU for being such a huge supporter of contemporary glass art in the Santa Fe area. I’m positive that your vast enthusiasm coupled with your organizational skills has been a big contributing factor to the SOFA people choosing Santa Fe for its new venue!
