NIKOLAS WEINSTEIN GLASS
“My sculptures are organic ‘echoes’ of the built environment rendered in glass. I imagine the installations in
conversation with the architecture; sympathetic to its geometries but also acting as transparent, luminous
counterpoints. In this way, my work talks to a client’s building. Not someone else’s building, not a type of building,
but their building.”

Since 1991, Nikolas Weinstein has been exploring a sustained interest in creating large-scale glass Artworks that
lie at the intersection of art and architecture. In this pursuit, Mr. Weinstein’s commitment to innovation and crafts-
manship allows the studio to build highly technical works without precedent, which can been seen in properties by
premier architects and developers including the offices of Frank O. Gehry, Foster + Partners, and Swire Properties.
The one-of-a-kind sculptures respond to architectural spaces by contrasting and integrating with their surroundings
and range in scale from small and intimate to large works that define the character of an entire space. He and his
team handle every aspect of a project; from design and fabrication, to shipping and installation.
