Victor Solomon “Literally Balling”
Joseph Gross Gallery
This event has ended.
Stained glass artist Victor Solomon makes unconventional use of the medium to arresting effect. Historically reserved for the royal, religious and opulent, stained glass is instead used to symbolize not only a devotion to the court but the role of the athlete in society. Having apprenticed for a year under veteran glass masters, Solomon renders these works with tremendous discipline – meticulously cutting, soldering and assembling his signature stained glass backboards with historical accuracy to the traditional Tiffany Style. At once elegant and playful, his work is an evocative symbol of sport that explores both the fragility of luxury and embraces the athlete as a modern-day king of the court.
