SELECTED EXHIBITIONS


COLOR CATALOGUE AVAILABLE

During the month of September 2006 I had a retrospective exhibition at the Birmingham-Bloomfield Art Center in Michigan.
For this event titled: "Looking Back-Making Now 42 Years in Clay," we designed and produced a color catalogue. What you can expect to find in this catalogue is a photo survey of works spanning this period of my career with captions and a modest amount of supporting text. There are 48 full color images. You may order this catalogue in either soft bound or hard cover. Made on a Mac!

Hard cover 8.5 x 11" including S&H: $75.00
Soft cover 6 x 8" including S&H: $30.00

These are custom-printed on demand, so we are ordering them as they are requested. Please allow about 2-3 weeks for delivery.

ORDER AT: johnglick@johnglick.com. Payment by VISA, MC or Check.
