ART FOCUS - In the glass artist's studio

We recently had the pleasure of procuring two stunning works by glass artist Dan Alexander. Their vibrant colors and intricate patterns will enhance the architecture of two facing niches in our client’s beautiful Mediterranean home.

Dan attended Kent State University and received a BFA with a Glass Concentration. Post graduation, he studied with some of the top glass artists in the field today.

This piece perfectly complements a stunning diptych by Rebecca Campbell, previously acquired through LA Louver, as well as the overall design of their family room; it really pulls together all elements! _____________________________________________________________________________________ Bobbie Burgers Enfleurage: between complexity and density Installation view of Bobbie Burger's Lover’s First Look (fram the Enfleurage Series), 2024-2025, polymer gypsum, fiberglass, steel, plaster, metal leaf and pigment, 54 x 42" Bobbie Burgers is a Vancouver-based painter whose sweeping gestural strokes have come to define her work.
