General Glass International (GGI) participated as a presenter and artist contest sponsor at CODAworx’s CODAsummit: Art, Technology and Place, held Sept. 29-Oct. 1 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The company’s involvement reflects its continued support for artists and public art commissions throughout North America. For more than a decade the company has supported the public art world and this is GGI's fourth year as a sponsor of CODAsummit.
GGI’s presentation explored how architectural glass can translate artistic concepts into the built environment. Its Alice® direct-to-glass printing process uses ceramic inks fused into glass during tempering. Artists can customize artwork scale, combine layered imagery and vary opacity within individual panels, adapting designs for installations ranging from interior partitions to expansive architectural facades. These capabilities invite artists and design teams to See What Glass Can Do®.
“Public art gives places identity and creates meaningful connections with the people who experience them,” said Stephen Balik, vice president of GGI. “Our support of CODAworx is about helping artists explore possibilities, connect with collaborators and bring their vision into the built environment. We congratulate the winning artists and look forward to supporting more public art commissions throughout North America.”
GGI congratulates the three winners of the sponsored artist contest:
- Anton Morton is an Oklahoma City-based public artist, creative principal of Kasum MANIFOLD and citizen of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. His practice brings together art, architectural integration and civic infrastructure to realize complex public installations.
- Michael R. DiCarlo is an artist and designer whose practice bridges architecture, computational design and digital fabrication. His work considers how people interact with art and its surrounding architectural or urban setting.
- Courtney Minor submitted “Dal Dal Flo.” An interdisciplinary artist working in Jersey City and New York City, Minor uses color, collage, assemblage and photography to explore identity and amplify stories often overlooked by mainstream society.
