Contemporary & Studio Glass by Vic Bamforth
 

                         
Vic Bamforth Glass Art

The highly demanding and skillful  technique of Graal has invariably been approached in a very familiar and  traditional way. Vic's approach to Graal is a very contemporary development - each piece is individually hand painted using high firing enamels.

Vic combines his glass blowing and painting skills to create one-off pieces, depicting a zany mix of jazz themes, cartoon cats and seafood themes, including lobsters and cans of Atlantic Pilchards in Tomato Sauce!

Inspiration....... "life experience" - people he has met and known, places he has visited, the world around him, how he feels and what is in his thoughts - passing or otherwise!

Vic is collected internationally and exhibits both in the UK and abroad. Notable international exhibitions include India, Japan, Germany and several cities in the USA.(including SOFA, Chicago).

Examples of work can be viewed in this website glass gallery and various art galleries (contact for details).
Vic is a regular exhibitor at the Cambridge Glass Fair (UK), The National Glass Collectors Fair (UK) and the new event for London - SE21 The Glass & Ceramics Fair in Dulwich - see news page for details.

Paperweights  are a recent addition to the site, and examples can be viewed in the glass paperweights gallery.

Vic welcomes enquiries for commissions from both private and corporate clients, in particular, presentation pieces for the performing arts (music, dance, film etc.). Check out GUITARISTTV.COM - JOE SATRIANI!
