Glass Sculpture
Born in 1986 in Beroun, Czech Republic, Jaroslav Prosek was introduced to glass after leaving secondary school. He was working at Marek Landa Art Chandelier Company. He continues his studies at the ateliers of Bohemian Crystal Masters Mr. Jan Frydrych and Mr. Vlastimil Beranek, where he discovered his passion for Bohemian Crystal sculpture and optical glass sculpture.
Ela Smrcek (1985-) is Czech glass artist from north Bohemia, the heart of Czech glass industry. She has been influenced by glass making since her childhood. Her particular interest is creating glass sculptures by melting glass into moulds. Smrtek's sculptures are therefore unique with each one having a hidden narrative.

Gianni Politi's abstract paintings are deeply indebted to Italian tradition: abstract forms become references to modern Italian art, freely interpreted and transfigured. Like the great modern Italian artists of the Art Provera movement such as Burri, Politi's methods are unconventional and make use of sparse resources. He recycles materials, including industrial and commercial canvas, he creates abstract collage constructions made from torn cloth, roughly glued together and stretched across the canvas.
