2012 RANAMOK GLASS PRIZE WINNER
The 2012 Ranamok Glass Prize has been awarded to Denise Pepper for her entry
Punto in Aria (Stitches in Air).
Mr Andrew Plummer, who along with Maureen Cahill of the Glass Artists’ Gallery, founded the Prize in 1995, said:
“The standard of this year’s works was exceptionally high and the judging panel would like to congratulate Denise Pepper for creating such outstanding work.
With the calibre of entries being so high, this year’s finalist exhibition comprises of 31 pieces. Narrowing the finalists down any further was impossible and we believe that each piece fully deserves its place in the exhibition. With a strong contingent of new and promising talent and the more established glass artists pushing themselves into different areas, it is clear that glass art is continuing its growth in Australia and New Zealand.
Such a remarkable work – unified with stillness and gravity that gives presence to the human spirit. This is the first time that the Ranamok Prize has been awarded to West Australian artist.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Anne Flanagan, Deputy Director of Art Gallery of New South Wales, Gillian Minervini, Creative Director / Producer Events, City of Sydney and Brian Parkes, Chief Executive Officer, JamFactory, Adelaide for joining us on the judging panel. We are particularly grateful for the enthusiastic support that we’ve received from the business community. The success of the Ranamok Prize is proof of a successful long-term alliance between business and the arts, and the positive impact that business can have in our community and culture.”
THE 2012 RANAMOK GLASS PRIZE
This is Ranamok's eighteenth year encouraging creativity, skill and innovation in contemporary glass, with Australian/New Zealand glass artists competing for a $15,000 prize. The 2012 Recipient will join previous winners in the Ranamok Winners Collection (1995–2012).
