Behind the Glass - Carlo Clausius in the Mezzanine Gallery Behind the Glass features Carlo’s exploration of the Hinterglass or “behind the glass” technique. Rather than canvas, the medium is glass wherein the artist paints on the back of the glass, a difficult process, but one that yields magical results when the painting is reversed: truly unique, dynamic and bold.
Les tapis au crochet - une vigueur constante - Gone Hooking Group in the Atrium Gone Hooking group's works, rooted in the lives of the early settlers, are a joyful expression of their love for “les tapis hookés.” The richly textured surfaces, the interaction of hand-dyed colours, the variety of subjects and style, all these add up to more than the individual parts. Artist and Artisan are one.
