Vladimír Bachorík

Vladimír Bachorík is a glass artist known for transparent and layered glass sculptures. His glass objects burst with light. They are generous in design, massive in size, yet pure in form. Daring geometry sets a cunning game of unexpected shapes and colors. Toned and encouraging, these objects have a life of their own. Bachorik attended the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague and has exhibited extensively in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, as well as in The Netherlands, Germany and France.
Born in 1963 in Český Těšín
