renowned Czech artist Bořek Šípek will present his first U.S. solo exhibition Bořek
Šípek: Baroque Soiree, featuring exquisite glass designs at Industry Gallery in Washington, DC. Director Miloš Forman is a friend of
Šípek and an avid collector of his impressive glass pieces. As Forman’s Oscar-winning film Amadeus utilized the historic dressings of
Mozart’s era to clothe and distinguish a regal space, so does Šípek incorporate opulent designs to transform a stark space into a
majestic realm. The event also serves to launch the festival. For more information, please e-mail info@industrygallerydc.com.
