Welcome to Emerge

Even if you miss seeing Emerge 2012 in person, you can still get a taste of the excitement and all of the details in the elegant full-color catalog. Emerge 2012: A Showcase of Rising Talents in Kiln-glass presents photos of the artworks, artist statements, and profiles of the finalists from around the globe who were selected into Bullseye's seventh biennial exhibition for students and early-career artists. An essay by Lani McGregor, Director of Bullseye Gallery, and a lively interview with jurors Laura Addison, Silvia Levenson and Klaus Moje provide context and commentary that strongly inform this foremost kiln-glass exhibition for emerging artists.
