National Glass Museum – Bořek Šípek
April 10 @ 00:00 - September 1 @ 00:00
In 1983, Czech designer and architect Bořek Šípek (1949-2016) established his design studio in Amsterdam. He designs furniture, silver, porcelain and glass. Through the renowned Galerie Steltman, his un-Dutch language of form is conquering the world.
His glass is made in the Czech Republic. There is a Leerdam component to that. In 1986, he met master glassblower Petr Novotný at the glass manifestation Glas ’86 in Leerdam and Fort Asperen. Together with Novotný and technical man Libor Fafala, Šípek founded the glass factory Ajeto in 1989 in the northern Czech Republic where his work is carried out.
