Current Exhibition

Jon Kuhn & Paul Stankard
April 12th - May 29th, 2008

Sandra Ainsley Gallery presents an exhibition featuring two internationally recognized artists: Jon Kuhn and Paul Stankard.  

Through a painstaking process of cutting, grinding, and polishing glass, Jon Kuhn creates highly integrated sculptures suspended in optical glass.  The result is an awe-inspiring diamond-like quality that reflects and refracts surrounding light.

Paul Stankard is best known for creating impossibly life-like depictions of flora and fauna encased within crystal.  Transforming the traditional paperweight, Stankard’s forms contain tiny insects, blossoming flowers, and out-stretched branches with a realism that deceives the eye.

Together, Kuhn and Stankard will be showing new and exciting bodies of work exemplifying their craftsmanship and the beauty produced by their fascinating techniques.  The centerpiece of the exhibition will be a collaborative piece that reveals the true talent and expertise of these masters of their craft.
