"New Energy" is not just a title; it's a guiding principle driving our exploration of the limitless possibilities of glass as a medium for artistic expression. Over the course of the symposium, we will delve into the transformative power of glass art, shedding light on groundbreaking techniques, provocative concepts, and visionary perspectives that are reshaping the contemporary art landscape.
