Holsten Galleries Blog

"The World of Contemporary Glass Sculpture by Kenn Holsten" was launched March 24, 2009.

Excerpt from April 17, 2009: "We recently received a new piece by Preston Singletary at Holsten Galleries. The piece is titled “Raven Steals the Stars.” Preston Singletary is a Seattle-based glass artist. While growing up he was best friends with another of our Seattle artists, Dante Marioni. “Raven Steals the Stars” draws on Preton’s [sic] Native American heritage as is true of all of his works. His Tlinkit culture (on his mother’s side) is rich with stories and myths about Raven, who apparently stole not only the stars but also the sun and the moon. On a recent visit to Seattle with my staff and some of our top collectors, we visited Preston’s new glass studio and hotshop. Preston is a soft-spoken but powerful artist and we are honored to represent him at Holsten Galleries. We look forward to his upcoming exhibition at the Tacoma Museum of Glass."
