Bernard Katz/Bernard Katz Glass

Bernard Katz has worked in glass since 1986. He is a graduate of Temple University's Tyler School of Art, where he majored in Fine Arts and specialized in Glass Blowing and Glass Sculpture. He also studied abroad at the West Surrey College of Art and Design in Farnham, England. Bernard then apprenticed for several years with well known glass artists such as Leon Applebaum, David Garcia and Samuel Bloom before opening his own design studio and gallery in Philadelphia, PA. He has created work on commission from the Hyatt Regency and his work is included in numerous private and public collections throughout the United States.

His etched designs are original and usually involve botanical subjects, creating a naturalistic yet contemporary feel. These designs lend themselves to display in all settings, from artistic home decor to corporate office enhancements.

Bernard designs and executes each piece himself, combining modern equipment and ancient techniques. His shapes are created by hand, blowing the molten glass into his three-dimensional shapes, which then become a canvas of glass onto which the final imagery will be etched.

New work for 2005-2006 include the Aerolith, Septara and Bolinas series. These new pieces represent textures and shapes of wood and rock.
