About the Item

1980's hand blown finger sculpture from the women's parts series by René Roubícek, of Czechoslovakia. Sculpture measures 4.5"high by 19"wide by 4.5"deep and is unsigned. In very good vintage 1980s condition. The following is taken from Ask Art with thanks: Born in Prague in 1922, Roubicek is recognized as an artist who, from the 1940s, contributed greatly to enhancing the perception and use of glass as a full fledged sculptural material. He was one of the founding fathers of the European Studio Glass movement, an internationally acclaimed phenomenon co-pioneered by Czech artists who worked with the material to realize sculptural expression decades before the United States movement began. In a highly original manner, Roubícek exploited the most natural glassmaking method, close teamwork with master glassmakers in improvising at the furnace. Roubícek’s monumental objects made of glass and metal had already earned him international acclaim at Expo ’58 in Brussels and, a decade later, at the World’s Fairs held in Montreal in 1967 and Osaka in 1970. He is collected in many museums and in private collections worldwide.
