Kulturnat Århus d. 14. oktober
Fotos, live jazz og live glas
I vores glaspusteri i Klostergade er der altid åbent for interesserede kunder og glasentusiaster. Men på Kulturnatten vil vi gøre noget anderledes. Vi laver en jazzkoncert med Duo NB (Poul Nyholm og Johannes Berggreen).
Samtidig vil vi have en udstilling af fotografier af musikfotograf Poul Nyholm. Pouls fotografier går tæt på musikeren både på scenen og backstage.
Om sine billeder siger Poul Nyholm:
Jazzmusikken fastholdt i øjeblikket. Fanget igennem de seneste år ved koncerter i Østjylland. Koncentrationen, glæden, sammenholdet.... jeg har oplevet det fra min plads bag kontrabassen igennem mange års optræden. Nu vil jeg se det fra den anden side og forsøge at formidle oplevelsen.
Fotografierne kan nydes til live musik leveret af duoen NB. Imens leger Ned Cantrell med det varme glas i værkstedet.
Vi serverer en lækker forfriskning og vi glæder os til at se jer den 14. oktober kl 18-23

Bredgade Kunsthandel is proud to present Substance, the first group exhibition with focus on studio glass.
20 sublime artists, who all have glass as their preferred material, show objects with focus on sculptural expression.
The universe of glass involves countless techniques and styles and the varieties of expressions are astonishing.The artistic statements cover a wide spectre all the way from minimalism to popart.
Since the beginning 40 years ago, the Danish studio glass movement has undergone quite a development, and because of its striking and strong character, it now plays an important role in our way of perceiving art.
Today Danish glass artists are renowned on the international glass scene, and SUBSTANCE represents the fruits of several generations’ accomplishments.

Virtuoso Vertigo
Virtuoso Vertigo
A baby riding on a silver rocket, Delicate goblet stems finished with a disposable papercup, Toilet cleaner bottles made with a painstakingly intricate web of Reticello glass, Banana skins that dance and pirouette- there is a visual surplus and simmering dark humor in the work of Ned Cantrell.
With reference to the craftsmanship of the classical age, and in particular the Italian Renaissance, traditional blown-glass is on a crashcourse with contemporary values.
An interest in overseen everyday objects is found in much of Ned Cantrell’s production, which momentarily can lead one’s thoughts to Pop art. However it is Andy Warhol’s reproductions of electric chairs and car crashes rather than his glistening versions of soup cans and cola bottles that are relevant here. When the artist works with everyday objects there always occurs something unpredictable and often threatening.
Ned Cantrell’s fascination of this collision between high and low culture is not without humour. The artist cannot hide his own diabolical pleasure over puncturing the naive innocence. Subsequently complimenting the thought provoking with the grotesquely funny.
