MELTING SANDS | Glass in Contemporary Art
Sammlung Philara, Düsseldorf
18 October 2025 – 26 January 2026

To mark the 150th anniversary of the former Lennarz glassworks, in whose converted premises the Philara Collection has been housed since 2016 (and where its buildings manager previously worked), Philara presents an extensive exhibition on glass in contemporary art. The presentation is a wide-ranging examination of how structure and chaos, as well as other contradictions inherent in this versatile material, can be reconciled. There is a particular focus on interdisciplinarity, collectivity and international cooperation – all characteristic of glass and its production.
