September 9th, 2011 Reception: Guest Artist Josh
Ries
Josh Ries is our guest artist for September-October. Josh’s
passion for glass was ignited the first time he encountered glassmaking on a
college trip to the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning NY.
He began classes and an apprenticeship at the Art of Fire
Contemporary Glass Studio in Gaithersburg, MD. Josh has studied with such
Masters as Gianni Toso, Ellio Quarisa, Josh Simpson, and Dante Marioni.
He loves studying new techniques such as traditional
Venetian, English, and contemporary styles of working with glass. He also loves
to share his knowledge of glass with others by helping teach classes at the Art
of Fire and the Corning Museum of Glass Studio.
Josh’s work can be found in many galleries and exhibits
around the country. He has also exhibited at the Renwick in Washington D.C.,
The American Craft Council show in Baltimore, and local venues such as the
Carroll County Arts Council. He has received such recognition as the Mayors
artist choice award, Ocean City MD, and the Rochester NY artist excellence
award.
His addiction to glass continues as he creates art with his
wife, Amanda, in his studio in Littlestown, PA. Each piece he creates employs age-old
Venetian and English techniques to create unique modern art glass.
Mark the date: Friday, September 9th, 5:30-7:30 PM.
