David Reekie

David Reekie is an eminent English glass sculptor who uses drawing and glass casting to express his unique vision of the human condition. His art can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, as well as in several other public collections in the United Kingdom.
A founding member of ''British Artists in Glass'', now the Contemporary Glass Society, Reekie's work has featured in countless periodicals and in over 60 exhibits worldwide.
==Background and education==

Born in the London Borough of Hackney (1947), David Reekie discovered an early love of drawing that has remained central to his life and work for well over four decades. Distinguished by his talent with a pencil and an active perceptive faculty he was encouraged to attend art college.
Reekie studied art at Stourbridge College of Art (1967–1970).〔''David Reekie'', edited by Cocker M, 2001, p. 5〕 Set in the heart of the UK's traditional glass making industry, Stourbridge College of Art was a natural place of innovation and discovery in the world of glass art. What is thought to be the only complete remaining glass cone of its kind, reaching 100 ft into the air and enclosing a furnace around which glass has been made for almost two centuries, the Red House Cone, dominates the landscape.
At Stourbridge, Reekie studied under the pioneering glass sculptor Harry Seager whose plate glass stacking pieces, were ahead of his time.〔 He also drew inspiration from Professor Keith Cummings commonly known as the father of English cast glass.〔 A pioneer of cire perdue, or the lost wax casting technique, Professor Cummings is an internationally recognised glass artist and author of a number of books on the subject.〔''A History of Glass Forming'', Cummings K, A&C Black, 2002; and ''Techniques of Kiln-formed Glass'' Cummings K, University of Pennsylvania Press, 1997.〕 Reekie went on to study at Birmingham College of Art Education, eventually obtaining a fellowship in glass at Lincolnshire and Humberside Arts (1975–1980).〔(Artist's website )〕
In 1976 Reekie was part of a group of glass artists who founded ''British Artist's in Glass'', now the Contemporary Glass Society〔 This organisation was partly instrumental in bringing Reekie's work international recognition.
In 1988, he was awarded a Winston Churchill Travel Fellowship to research glass in architecture in the US. His work is currently shown in America by (Thomas R.Riley Galleries ), Cleveland, Ohio.〔(Thomas R.Riley Galleries )〕 Reekie has lectured extensively on glass sculpture and his own casting technique, in the UK Europe, US and Australia.〔
