Andriy Petrovskyi b. 1968
Born in 1968 in Lviv, Andriy Petrovskyi graduated from the Lviv National Academy of Arts (1998) where he majored in applied and decorative arts (Glass Art). He is now a senior lecturer at the Glass Art Department, Lviv National Academy of Arts. His works have represented the Lviv glass school at numerous exhibitions and symposiums in Austria, Belgium, China, the Netherlands, Italy, Canada, Germany, Poland, Slovenia, France, and Switzerland. He is a member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine. Petrovskyi's work is, above all, a plastic solution for a variety of tasks he sets himself in the field of art glass. This important means of materialization of his creative ideas and projects is combined with a refined color palette. Yet, plasticity is his universal tool in the search for modern art glass forms.
