Bertil Vallien celebrates 60 years of glass art with Brooklyn solo exhibition

Swedish glass artist Bertil Vallien, now 88, has opened a major solo exhibition titled "Starman: Sixty Years of Exploring Glass Art" at the Robert Lehman Gallery in Brooklyn. The show features 35 works spanning his 64-year career, highlighting his mastery of sand-casting and his long collaboration with the heritage brand Kosta Boda. Notable pieces include the *Resting Head* series, *Idun’s Magical Apples*, and the *Ships* series, which draw on Norse mythology and themes of life cycles.

“Show d’Houdini” at CAC Brétigny, Brétigny-sur-Orge

The article reviews the group exhibition "Show d’Houdini" at CAC Brétigny in Brétigny-sur-Orge, which explores the figure of the magician as a cultural archetype. Drawing on the legacy of Harry Houdini and the historical context of late 19th- and early 20th-century illusionism and spiritualism, the show presents works that examine the magician's dual nature—oscillating between charlatanism and miracle, deception and wonder.
