BOCA RATON, FLA
.- There is every reason this year to have a world view, says Irvin Lippman, the Boca Raton Museum of Arts Executive Director, as South Florida boldly ushers in the new year with the national premiere of Glasstress 2021 Boca Raton. Three years in the making, with 2020 being such a challenging year to coordinate an international exhibition of this size and scope, the effort serves as an important reassurance that art is an essential and enduring part of humanity. This is also a tribute to the resilience of Venices surviving the floods and continuing to make art through the pandemic. Most of these works in glass have never been seen elsewhere, and were handpicked by Kathleen Goncharov, the Museums Senior Curator who traveled to Italy in 2019. The new exhibition runs Jan. 27 through Sept. 5, 2021 and the Museum will feature online initiatives for virtual viewing. Watch the new video . More
