The Marta Hewett Gallery is pleased to present this exhibition of compelling works by Michael J. Aschenbrenner. The 58 year old artist is acknowledged as one of the first in the U.S. to use glass as a powerfully emotive material rather than a strictly decorative medium. Aschenbrenner's pieces have been described as "mysterious and moving" and "exceedingly poignant".

"As an artist I am a witness of my time, to record what I see today. Not the past, not the future. Artists reflect what we are, they are the reflections of society: the mirrors", states the artist.

Michael Aschenbrenner's works have been exhibited internationally throughout the past thirty years. His notable installations are included in the permanent collections of the American Craft Museum, The Corning Museum of Glass, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Aschenbrenner is a two time recipient of the Pollock/Krasner Foundation Grant for individual artists and a recipient of a Fellowship Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
