Julius Weiland

Julius Weiland was born in Lübeck in 1971, lives and work in Berlin – Germany

“Julius Weiland has been involved in the creative development of glass sculpture, and made it uniquely his own, for the last twenty or so years. Born in Lubeck (1971) and having trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Hamburg, under the glass sculptor and specialist Anne Wolff. He has come to master all the numerous procedures of glass production, whether blown or cast, collaged or in bricolage of pre-manufactured glass elements. He has received major public-private commissions, and his work is found in major museums and public collections. An artist who is in love with the mastery of molten glass and its processes of formal solidification is but an extension of the alchemical psyche, a desire through imagination to expand further the material limits posed by his medium.”
