Glen-Gery Launches Folio 2 Featuring the Most Inspiring New Brick Buildings in North America and Australia

Wyomissing, Pa.​(March 13, 2023) — Glen-Gery Corporation, a part of Brickworks North America, has announced the launch of Folio 2, a high-end publication featuring the most inspiring new brick buildings in North America and Australia. Following the popular first volume of Folio, Folio 2 is a source of inspiration and an invaluable reference tool for architects and designers alike.

“Brick has long been a trusted material, used worldwide by architects who appreciate strength, versatility and sustainability in design. Due to its proven value to both traditional works and contemporary designs, we’ve seen brick increasingly become the building material of choice for many architects and designers,” said Tim Leese, director of marketing at Glen-Gery. “Folio 2 is a thoughtfully curated collection of projects that show how architectural ideas – no matter how big or small – can be made real through the material. The publication not only celebrates the beauty of brick but also explores the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind the architectural process.”

Folio 2 features highly visual photos and drawings detailing innovative designs and interviews with the architects and designers behind the designs. Projects, including single-family homes, university buildings and offices, show the endless design possibilities of brick. Each project uses brick manufactured by Glen-Gery or its sister company, Austral Bricks, in a variety of shapes, colors and textures, from conventional brick to custom-designed brick for unique implementations.

“The publication is a beautiful culmination of brick projects. Despite being in a digital era, we wanted to offer a fulfilling reading experience where architects and designers could physically flip through the pages, take their own notes, and truly connect to the exceptional projects within the publication,” said Leese.

Glen-Gery celebrated the launch of Folio 2 at Brick Design: Incorporating Unique Detailing in Architecture, an exclusive panel discussion featuring moderator Doug Patt and panelists Morris Adjmi of Morris Adjmi Architects; Steve Knight of David M. Schwarz Architects; and Mateusz Nowacki of Everyday Studio, on March 9, 2023 at the Brickworks New York Design Studio. The panelists, whose firms were featured in Folio 2, explored how unique designs are achieved through the utilization of brick.

Ten models – wearing outfits designed by fashion designers (several of whom are members of SohoMuse) including Marc Bouwer, Malan Breton, Karen Caldwell, Anne Fontaine, Gloria Lee, Merci Dupre, Nicole Miller, Noize Apparel, Victor de Souza and Brook Wilder – each graced the runway with a four-legged companion, and a panel of celebrity judges headed by Fern Mallis with Carol Alt and Karen Abercrombie handed out awards to animal welfare organizations paired with each model-and-pet team.

The Inaugural awards were presented to; The Judges Choice: Global Strays (Designer: Gloria Lee), People’s Choice: Big Dog Ranch Rescue (Designer: Anne Fontaine), Publishers Choice: Danny & Ron’s Rescue (Designer: Marc Bouwer).

About the Award Winners

Global Strays – A World-wide mission to reduce the suffering of animals in impoverished regions through funding of animal shelters and bringing services directly into communities in an effort to increase well-being.

Big Dog Ranch Rescue – Since its foundation in 2008, Big Dog Ranch Rescue has saved over 50,000 dogs with their mission to save 5,000 dogs every year, to heal and place them with loving families and to educate about proper care.

Danny & Ron’s Rescue – After the 2005 Hurricane Katrina Danny & Ron’s Rescue has aided dogs that were left homeless by the storm and has grown to rescue puppy mill dogs, bait dogs and shelter dogs.

“This is the first time that fashion, animals and charity have been brought together in New York Fashion Week,” ELYSIAN Founder Karen Floyd said. “To do it in a way that will benefit the lives of countless pets adds a layer of meaning that will not soon be forgotten.”

“Our nation’s animal shelters are facing unprecedented overcrowding due to inflation, housing restrictions, and a decrease in adoptions,” said Cathy Bissell, founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “BISSELL Pet Foundation is grateful to be the beneficiary charity of Catwalk FurBaby to make a difference for homeless pets in ten animal welfare organizations across the country. By supporting CatWalk FurBaby, participants will help deserving pets receive much-needed second chances through this one-of-a-kind event.”

Galerie Gmurzynska at the Palm Beach Show

Galerie Gmurzynska at the Palm Beach Show

Galerie Gmurzynska returns to the Palm Beach Show as the only international classic 20th century gallery, bringing international masters who pioneered the abstraction of the human figure. Among these greats count Pablo Picasso, Constantin Brancusi, Francis Picabia, Wifredo Lam, Roberto Matta, Joaquin Torres- García, and the burgeoning Pop icon, Marjorie Strider. Alongside these masters and in the exclusive charitable benefit of Focused on Nature, Prince Hussain Aga Khan’s fine art undersea photography will be presented.

As a seminal highlight of this presentation, Picasso’s plaster sculpture of his left hand from 1937 will be shown in its first public tour in over two decades. The sculpture dates from the same year the artist painted “Guernica” and encapsulates the creative force of the ceaselessly inventive artist. When the Surrealist photographer Brassaï saw the work in during the war in 1944 in its safekeeping depot he remarked:

“It stands in one piece, a monument of strength and sovereign balance: fleshy palm, mount of Venus protruding of sensuality, voluntary thumb, fingers compressed against each other not letting any light through. And what clarity, what neatness of the deeply engraved lines that criss-cross this large craftsman’s palm and that are dominated by the line of luck that rises, rises straight up like a rocket to the root of the middle finger.” – Brassaï

The Chilean-born Surrealist Roberto Matta is represented with two major monumental oil paintings from the 1960s, a period famous for the vibrant manifestations of his political and philosophical visions. In his nearly three-meter painting “Le fond d’Héraclite,” Matta honors the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, whose maxim “No man steps in the same river twice,” serves as a springboard for Matta’s fascination with change, energy and matter. A remarkably powerful painting speaks to the limitless boundaries of science, humanity and art.

Another nominally Latin American Surrealist turned international 20th century master, Wifredo Lam is a highlight of the gallery’s presentation. In the recent market and museum reevaluation of Surrealism, Wifredo Lam has been considered one of its champions. His vibrant figurative creations were influenced by his globe-trotting career with the avant-garde generations in Paris and New York but also by his native Cuban Santeria religion. His 1954 collage shares the visual language of Picasso’s “Guernica” and evokes the realms of spirits and dreams.

Marjorie Strider’s recent return to the limelight and core of the history of Pop Art is long overdue. Dissatisfied with her male peers’ representation of women and the bland forms of minimalism, Strider pushed painting into the third dimension with her structured reliefs of pin-up models. The monumental painted construction “Girl with White Rose” plays with the tropes of romance, beauty and gender. This work to be shown at the Palm Beach Show shares many of the formal characteristics of Strider’s “Girl with Radish,” which the New York Times used as the cover image of their recent article “Best Art of 2022.”

“[Galerie Gmurzynska’s 2022/3 exhibition of Marjorie Strider] reinvigorates Strider’s oeuvre and re-imagines her role in art history as a leading Pop Artist who was omitted from the male-dominated canon.”
