Gmail - Stunning Glass Sculpture for KU Med

my friends at Leopold gallery just sent me this interesting email:

We recently completed an enormous sculpture in blown glass for KU Medical Center. The armature was designed by Leopold, the glass created by Vernon Brejcha. The piece, titled PulseFlow, is for KU Med’s new Cardiac Center, and incorporates over 300 pieces of glass.


Brejcha, who has been blowing art glass since 1970, is considered one of the pioneers of the contemporary art glass movement. His work is in the collections of more than 40 museums, including the Smithsonian Institute, the Los Angeles County Museum, and the Wedgewood Museum in England. The image below also shows a work he recently did for a private collector.

If you find these images as stunning as our clients have, please pass them on.
