- Lot Description
Audrey Handler (American, XX). Bowl of fruits and vegetables - art glass, 1999-2000. The bowl and 10 of the 14 fruits & vegetables are signed and dated. A hand-blown glass bowl of 14 hand-blown glass fruits and vegetables by Audrey Handler, all rendered in a remarkably realistic manner. In addition to still life works like this example, Handler is also known for her surreal presentations of miniature gold and silver human figures juxtaposed with life-sized glass fruit. According to Paul Vickers Gardner, Curator Emeritus of the Smithsonian, "These delightful people carry on their daily pursuits unabashed by their contrastingly huge surroundings. This talented artist's sculptural concepts reveal a keen insight and interest in our everyday lives. In fact, she puts real life into 'Still-Life'." Size (bowl): 10" diameter x 4.5" H (25.4 cm x 11.4 cm) (fruits and vegetables are all of a realistic scale)
About the artist: "Audrey Handler is known as one of the pioneers of the 'Studio Glass Movement'. She started working in glass in 1965 as one of Harvey Littleton's first female glass students. Audrey was a board member of the Glass Art Society, an international organization she helped create in 1971. Her studio, housed in a 19th century cheese factory, began in 1970 and is one of the oldest continually operating glass blowing facilities in the country. She has taught workshops in glass helping to spread the artistic and conceptual idea of glass as a medium of expression for the artist. Her sculptures are in collections and museums around the world. She is currently on the Glass Advisory Board of the Bergstrom Mahler Museum of Glass in Neenah, Wisconsin.
Audrey Handler creates single blown glass forms of fruit, glass platters and vases. She also creates sculptural environments that make a comment on universal experiences usually on domestic themes. These sculptures create a surrealistic time and place. Handler holds a B.F.A. from Boston University School of Fine and Applied Arts and a M.S. and M.F.A. from the University of Wisconsin, Department of Art." (Artist's Website)
