The Artist

Magma Art Glass, since 2009

Magma Art Glass is the artist Dan Clausen. I use my creative energy to explore the limits of the the glass itself, the craft and its techniques and the esthetiques of the artwork. I work in the heart of the Kingdom of Glass in Småland, Sweden, in the very idyllic village of Transjö.

The cultural heritage is passed on,
a new generation moves into Transjö Hyttan!

Two of today’s great glass artists, Jan-Erik Ritzman and Sven-Åke Carlsson, visited Limhamn’s Konsthall from 21 May to 12 June 2022. The exhibition was a farewell exhibition and one wondered who would carry on their legacy and take over Transjö Hytta. The cabin has now been sold to two old acquaintances, namely Lars Skulberg and Dan Clausen. They were both also initiators of the first glass exhibition ”Glasriket comes to Limhamn in 2021”

Frida Trollmyr gave an opening speech and the theme was the artist’s working conditions today, how can art be spread to the local area and finally she spoke about cultural heritage. Cultural heritage is the soul of the people and if you don’t invest in culture today, we will have a spiritual poverty in society tomorrow.

We hope that one day Dan Clausen will return to Limhamn’s Art Gallery with a new exhibition which will then be ”Glasriket 3”.
