VLADIMÍRA
KLUMPAR
PAVLIK
*1978
BIO
Vladimíra Klumpar-Pavlik ranks among the classics of Czech glass sculpture. Her works are a dialogue between glass’s substance, its optical qualities, and the mysticism of her themes. Furthermore, they attest eloquently to her supreme mastery of glasswork technologies. She also draws upon inspiration taken from her many years’ residence in the USA.
