Pieke Bergmans

Verre en scène cycle
Mudac’s contem­por­ary glass art collec­tion includes over 600 pieces. Never­the­less, the exhib­i­tion area on the museum’s top floor only allows for a tiny frac­tion of them to be displayed. That is why, every two months, Verre en scène (staging glass) presents a new art piece taken from the museum’s stor­age. This selec­tion aims to be varied, dynamic and original – a novel display concept that also stems from a desire to show­case the porous bound­ar­ies between the fields of glass art, design and contem­por­ary art. Thus, the works of inter­na­tional glass artists and design­ers and the use of vari­ous tech­niques and diverse creat­ive contexts give this unique collec­tion greater expos­ure. The display in dark­ness with focused light­ing offers an oppor­tun­ity for the viewer to approach these contem­por­ary glass creations in a unique way.
