Popelka and Trenchard will discuss their bodies of work as well as the glass community of  Door County, Wisconsin.

The Studio Glass Movement in Wisconsin: The Hyde Collection examines the past and present of one of contemporary art’s most visually striking movements. In celebration of the 60th anniversary of both MOWA and the Studio Glass movement, the exhibition features work by thirty glass artists ranging from early, groundbreaking experiments of Harvey Littleton and his students at University of Wisconsin – Madison to the contemporary, conceptually driven work from the hot shops of Beth Lipman and Jeffrey Stenbom. The university experience is central to the story of Wisconsin glass. Many of the artists trace their artistic origins to either the University of Wisconsin in Madison or in River Falls. The exhibition and accompanying catalogue chronicle MOWA’s Karen and James Hyde’s decade-long focus on building a collection of contemporary glass.

The Artist Talk is free to members.
