\n\t\t\t\t\tNiko\u00adlas Wein\u00adstein was born in New York City in 1968 and grew up in a fami\u00adly alre\u00ada\u00addy stee\u00adped in the arts through his par\u00adents. His father was an archi\u00adtect and his mother crea\u00adted sculp\u00adtures. From an ear\u00adly age, he deve\u00adlo\u00adped a fasci\u00adna\u00adti\u00adon for orga\u00adnic, bio\u00admor\u00adphic forms \u2013 a sen\u00adsi\u00adbi\u00adli\u00adty he shares with Frank O. Gehry. The floa\u00adting glass clouds he crea\u00adted for the DZ BANK Forum on Pari\u00adser Platz mark\u00aded a defi\u00adning col\u00adla\u00adbo\u00adra\u00adti\u00adon for both artists and the begin\u00adning of Weinstein\u2019s remar\u00adkab\u00adle inter\u00adna\u00adtio\u00adnal care\u00ader in sculp\u00adtu\u00adral glass art. \n\nPho\u00adtos \u00a9: Niko\u00adlas Wein\u00adstein Stu\u00addi\u00ados, Robert Schlat\u00adter, AXICA <\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

For more than two deca\u00addes, Niko\u00adlas Wein\u00adstein has been explo\u00adring glass as a medi\u00adum that enga\u00adges in direct dia\u00adlo\u00adgue with archi\u00adtec\u00adtu\u00adre. Inspi\u00adred by orga\u00adnic struc\u00adtures and natu\u00adral move\u00adments, his sculp\u00adtures seem to grow out of the space \u2013 as \u2018echo\u00ades\u2019 of the buil\u00adding its\u00adelf, rea\u00adli\u00adsed in flu\u00adid and ethe\u00adre\u00adal forms.<\/p>\n

Light plays a cen\u00adtral role in Weinstein\u2019s work. As glass reacts more inten\u00adse\u00adly to light than almost any other mate\u00adri\u00adal, his sculp\u00adtures are in con\u00adstant flux with their sur\u00adroun\u00addings \u2013 chan\u00adging their colour, depth and atmo\u00adsphe\u00adre throug\u00adhout the day.<\/p>\n

Inspi\u00adred by natu\u00adral phe\u00adno\u00adme\u00adna such as flowing water, honey\u00adcombs and ero\u00adsi\u00adon, Wein\u00adstein crea\u00adtes instal\u00adla\u00adti\u00adons that bring a sen\u00adse of move\u00adment and vita\u00adli\u00adty to the archi\u00adtec\u00adtu\u00adre, as if \u201can invi\u00adsi\u00adble force had brought the archi\u00adtec\u00adtu\u00adre to life and expres\u00adsed its\u00adelf in glass\u201d.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
