“We don’t usually do shows honoring dealers,” said Andrew Hunter, the museum’s Fredrik S. Eaton Curator of Canadian Art and the organizer of “Av Isaacs: Shaping the Scene,” on through October 2 in Toronto. “But Av was a pretty unique figure. Many artists he championed or discovered went on to become transformative figures.” Esteemed Canadian artists like William Kurelek, Jessie Oonark, Christiane Pflug, and Michael Snow all got their start as Isaacs clients."

INDEFINITE VASES By Studio E.O

The project is an exploration of the relationship between geometric and organic forms – transparent and opaque. Indefinite melting materia interacts with definite angular forms and gravity determines the relationship in between.

Indefinite Vases are sculptures or containers. Functional or decorative. The contrast between the cut stone and the form of the hand blown glass emphasizes the relation between space and object, an interplay between a fragile material and its solid counterpart.

Release date: 2016
Materials: Portoro Marble, Amarillo Macael Marble, Pink Onyx, Azul Bahia Granite, Rosa Norvegia Marble & Hand blown glass.
