The Athenaeum’s “Sculpture Invitational” Curated by Alison Sigethy, the 11-artist present is heavy on ceramic or glass works, together with items by Washington Glass Faculty principals Tim Tate, Erwin Timmers, and Michael Janis.

Artwork critic Mark Jenkins writes in his overview for the net DisCerning Eye in regards to the present: “Tate’s “Vitruvian Lenticular” is actually mutable, since its Leonardo-inspired figures alternately attain to one another or really contact, relying on the viewer’s vantage level. One among Janis’s glass-panel portraits affords a number of views of a face, suggesting jagged aspects of a single character…” and “…The sense of movement is palpable, as it’s with Timmers’s upright circles of recycled glass, jagged and swirling. “Eclipse” showcases strong objects that aspire, or at the very least allude, to fluidity.”
