Artist Statement:
My mixed media art is a study
of social issues, infused with
conflicting emotional textures
that transform my ideas into
multi-dimensional stories.
Like people, my work often
surprises me. Each piece has a
character which is complex,
spontaneous, and flowing.
Color is significant in all my
work. Its expression ...

IMMEDIATE PRESS RELEASE
MARK W. LUBICH
RECEIVES SPECIAL RECOGNITION
Artist MARK W. LUBICH of OLYMPIA, WASHINGTON has received TWO Special Recognition Merit Awards for his artwork in the
"8th Annual Summer All Media Juried Online International Art Exhibition hosted by Upstream People Gallery.
This international exhibition received approximately 600 entries from around the world by 156 artists which were selected by the juror.
Larry Bradshaw, Professor of Art at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, U. S. A.
Professor Bradshaw states this about this specially recognized work:
"'MARK W. LUBICH of Olympia, Washington creates here with mixed media and fused glass. Quite revealing and thoughtful is his work “An Orange Bison in America” giving thought to historical references of those who have played an important role. “Warrior Moon” is very handsome with the fused glass in blue and the warmth of the wood framing.'"
Further information about the work and the artist:
'"Warrior Moon is a fused glass sculpture with a base of opaque glass covered in layers of glass stringer, millefiori, and dichroic tiles. It symbolizes the strength and fragility of a soldier, wrapped in a layer of institutional armor that is both rigid and slow to change.
An Orange Bison in America is a mixed media piece that combines traditional mediums with fused glass This is a very personal statement filled with images of historical persons that I greatly admire. The orange bison represents the struggles a person undergoes when their ideas are radically different from the status quo; it’s about standing up for what one believes even when doing so might result in personal physical or psychological harm."'
The exhibition will be featured through August 31st, and then can be viewed in the archives section online through July 31, 2010 at
