At noon on Sunday, March 9th, join us for a glass blowing demo by glass artists Marc Petrovic and Kari Russell-Pool at the Duncan McClellan Gallery.
At 1:45pm we’ll travel over to the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg, Florida for a “ Meet and Greet” brunch and a complimentary mimosa with the artists. As a special thank you for attending the lecture, The Museum is offering a 15% discount on the cost of the brunch. Use code “HotShop” when making phone reservations with the MFA or at the brunch itself. (This code cannot be used in conjunction with other promotions such as museum memberships.)
At 3pm, both artists will lecture about their specific work and inspiration! The lecture is free with MFA admission.
About the Artists
Husband and wife, Mr. Petrovic and Ms. Russell-Pool are both graduates of the Cleveland Institute of Art, where the former received the prestigious Agnes Gund Memorial Scholarship. They now work at their glass studio near Essex, Connecticut. They have distinct approaches, but do share ideas. They have shown their work and presented demonstrations across the country and abroad.
Ms. Russell-Pool takes a “watercolor approach” in creating her flame-worked glass sculpture, and her husband has written that “glass…is just a material. Until it is infused with an idea, a source, or an expression, my job as an artist is not complete.”
