Australian Glass Artists (9110)

Australian artists:  Studio Glass Art Golden Age’s fire was ignited at the Pilchuck Glass School in 1972, four miles NE of the History Farm. The first 20 years found the “melding” of cultures’ skills and knowledge; the 2nd the “melting” of glass: teaching students these evolving skills. The cultures contributing to create the Studio Glass Movement included the Australian, championed by Klaus Moje: evidenced by the work of Nick Mount (1900), Stephen Proctor (1977 and (1900).  Australia’s special skills (contribution) related to Lampworking & Fusing.  This was before U-Tube and cell phones.  Artists and students came together in a total emersion environment, blending the knowledge of different countries.  The Glass School mirrored the Living History Farm’s History, accepting diversity and inclusion while building a new and beautiful and new “art movement” unique to the times … all here in Stanwood, Washington.
