Vladimir's glass objects, often in bright dominant colours, are dynamic and vital. Even in their contemplative form, they contain the energy of movement, they are a captured image of a moment, an unrepeatable snapshot, a blink of the eye. They have an inner trembling, restlessness, vibration, a way of communication inherent on Earth and within man.

About Vladimíra Klumpar
Vladimíra Klumpar, after studying at the SUPŠ of Glass in Železný Brod, graduated in 1981 at the Prague Academy of Fine Arts in the glass studio of Prof. Stanislav Libenský, who together with Jaroslav Brychtová was synonymous with the phenomenon of fused glass sculpture. He inspired many of his students to use it artistically, only a few of whom managed to make a lasting impact abroad. Vladimíra Klumpar, living and working in the USA (1985-1998), Mexico (since 1989) and the Czech Republic (since 2000). Her glass objects, often in bright dominant colours, are dynamic and vital. Even in their contemplative form, they contain the energy of movement, a captured image of a moment, an unrepeatable snapshot, a blink of the eye. They have an inner trembling, restlessness, vibration, a way of communicating inherent in the earth and man. That is why Vladimíra Klumpar is one of the most outstanding artists of her generation, because she does not treat glass as a common material, but as a unique natural phenomenon, a fifth element
