Until the 20th of April, 2019, connoisseurs will head for the Schiepers Gallery, a well-known rendezvous that sets forth an art going back to the days of Antiquity. An event within the event, this spring it welcomes Baldwin and Guggisberg, a duo composed of glass blower artists whose work and technique to capture light have been rewarded internationally.

The passion of glass at the Schiepers Gallery

These material geniuses, mixing Scandinavian and Venetian techniques, take us on a kaleidoscopic journey through all the aspects of this fragile material. They never hesitate to push back the frontiers in their daily manufacturing processes, conceived in their workshop, with as constant red thread the purity of imaginary lines that weave a creation.

Whether its vases, decorated with abstract geometric motifs, mini spheres transformed into mobiles or extravagant pieces, these works will know how to catch your eye.
