Glassmax new Studio & exhibition

[glassmax]

Hi all,

After some months with serious health problems I opened my new studio.
It took me some weeks to finish as far as it is know.
It´s on a good,frequented location in the center of the black forest region.

I have a bench for two and sell lampworked and furnace worked studio glass.
I give lampwork lessons for all levels running from 1 hour to several days.
Those are made by some of my friends,by myselfe or from my worlwide collection.

This one is very old.I made iton a meeting with other artits about 25 years ago.Its blown at the furnace.


This is original art nouveau style from about 1890,lampworked.


Thats a tea and sugar cup set from the "Bauhaus" episode made at the lathe about 1930.

Hia all,
I´ve been sick for a while,still not godd but glass keeps me up most.
But only small stuff as I can only stand about 30 minutes at the torch, melting time.
But at the time Lampworking is one nof a very few things that also gives me mental strength.
Unfortunately I am pretty sick since longer now,going from one specialist,dos,hospitals to another,got at stant,bloody diabetes T1,bla,bla,bla
So glass is a good medicine,I call it "playing around",doing things I have in mind for a while,new shapes and patterns or improve .
So here some smaller playing results:

This one is 8,5"long






This one is 10" long


This one is 10" tall


This one is 15" tall


This one has 5" diameter


This one hs 4" diameter


Thanks for comments,Glassmax Axel

Really great stuff and studio! I really like the white base orb in the 1st pic...reminds me of an old lightning strike marble. Get your second wind and give life hell!

Cool. That would be a fortune in New York. Costs $4,000 month for an apartment in the city. God knows how much retail space costs.
My girlfriend just put in an offer on a foreclosure. It has a basement office I might use as a studio.
Since I can't afford $2000 month for mortgage and taxes I don't have much say. It's only 1 hour drive from the city though.
I will be taking care of the lawn and helping out with her son.

Either you make more money in Germany, are independently wealthy or things cost less?

My girlfriend has diabetes. So I understand what you are going through.
