{"id":74,"count":74,"description":"Born in Nancy, the historical birthplace of glass and\u00a0crystal, G\u00e9rald Vatrin is one of those artists who\u00a0embodies the new energy of French contemporary glass.\u00a0He graduated from the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure\u00a0des Beaux-Arts in \u00c9pinal. He trained in the arts and\u00a0techniques of glass with a specialisation in freehand\u00a0glass blowing.\r\n\r\nTo create his distinctive pieces, G\u00e9rald Vatrin blows a\u00a0simple form while the material is still molten, which he\u00a0magnifies by engraving, enamelling, removing or cutting\u00a0the glass, adding pigments or a woven leather seam that\u00a0he calls \u201cpassages\u201d.\r\n\r\nHis works reflect his training, his artistic background\u00a0and the influence of his travels, particularly in Africa and\u00a0Australia.\u00a0G\u00e9rald Vatrin\u2019s creations explore new and different\u00a0universes for the glass field: they are inspired by the\u00a0tribal world, imitate the vegetal and animals, ressemble\u00a0ice or lava stone. G\u00e9rald Vatrin\u2019s works, alike glass\u00a0microcosms, explore a world of visual and tactile\u00a0sensations.\r\n\r\nG\u00e9rald Vatrin\u2019s work has been awarded numerous prizes,\u00a0including the M\u00e9daille d\u2019\u00c9tain de la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Acad\u00e9mique\u00a0des Arts, Sciences et Lettres de Paris (2015) and the\u00a0Grand Prix de la Ville de Paris (2001).\r\n\r\nHis work is included in the permanent collections of\u00a0many prestigious institutions, such as the Victoria &amp;\u00a0Albert Museum in London, the Dutch National Glass\u00a0Museum in Leerdam (Netherlands) and the Mus\u00e9e du\u00a0Verre de Sars-Poterie in France.\r\n\r\nIn 2020, the MAD-Mus\u00e9e des Arts D\u00e9coratifs in Paris\u00a0acquired <em><a href=\"https:\/\/maisonparisienne.fr\/en\/oeuvre\/trait-dunion\/\">Trait d\u2019Union<\/a><\/em> for its permanent collections. In\u00a02022, several of his sculptures entered the collections of\u00a0the Mus\u00e9e des Beaux-Arts de Nancy.","link":"https:\/\/maisonparisienne.fr\/en\/artiste\/gerald-vatrin\/","name":"G\u00e9rald Vatrin","slug":"gerald-vatrin","taxonomy":"artiste","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 -
