Exhibition: Frozen-in Tension
Tension and relaxation, strain and rest – the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung in Munich dedicates this year’s exhibition to this complex of themes. Under the title Frozen-in Tension, more than thirty glass sculptures by significant international artists as well as works by the German photographer Jessica Backhaus will be on view from 29 April 2010 to 27 January 2011. The title of the exhibition – a technical term from the area of heat treatment – is multilayered: It addresses the subject as well as the material of the works. The sculptures made of hot liquid glass, now cold and solidified, seem at first glance to rest in themselves. After looking at them longer or more closely, viewers observe that the state of rest, harmony, and calm turns into subtle anticipation, distraught anxiety, or an explosive emotional force.

Exhibition: Glass – A New Experience [2]
One of the goals of the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung, which was founded some years ago, is to introduce artists using the material glass to a larger circle of people interested in art. Therefore, exhibitions take place on a regular basis presenting different themes of contemporary studio glass and showing it as what it is - an own form of art.

A foundation and its goals
From the very beginning Alexander Tutsek and his wife Dr. Eva-Maria Fahrner-Tutsek were enthusiastic about glass and its physical properties. When they started to build up their private collection of studio glass they quickly realized that this material had not yet found a foothold in German art.
