Growing Old is Mandatory but, Growing Up is Optional - New neon work by Adam Smolensky (First Friday)

Adam Smolensky's diligence in his work could be a signature in itself. As a glassblower he is renowned for his detailed work in borosilicate glass -- of marbles, pendants, drinking glasses, pipes, and sculptures of assorted shapes and sizes.  He has spent the last 3+ years adding traditional Neon sign-making techniques to his expansive glass skillset.  Taking the care and attention to detail that he has always used in his work and applying it to neon has been one of his long sought after goals.  This show is his first exhibit of a group of his own neon work, entirely made, bent, pumped, and wired by him.
