Summary

European Glass Context 2021 is the 8th biennial on Bornholm. A biennial showing experimental and innovative glass art by 62 artists from 31 European countries. The curation of this year's glass biennial is supported by four underlying themes. "Masterpieces" show new paths for interpretations and the perception of glass art's materials, technique, form and idea. "Site-specific installations" relate to a specific and special place. "Social or political practice" are works that work with a current situation. And "the UN's world goals" are global goals for the planet's sustainability, which some artists have taken as their starting point. In the exhibition, you will be able to see on the signs which theme the individual artist has worked on. The glass biennial's two exhibitions, which are composed of a European group of curators, will be shown at Bornholm Art Museum and at Grønbechs Gård in Hasle. Exhibition: Bornholms Kunstmuseum & Grønbechs Gård, Denmark (11.09. - 21.11.2021).
