Bertil Vallien’s most recent work includes an expressive series of cast glass heads, mounted on high, slender pillars. Here, we are able to follow the process of work from the very beginning, and witness Vallien’s creative powers in full play. We can also trace the gradual transformations that occur in the sculptures, from the initial exhibition ot Borglum Castle, to become ever more abstract in Seattle, Zürich, Sydney, Venice, and New York.
