Profile Type: artist
Paul Housberg studied painting early in his career, but was drawn to glass for its atmospheric color. After receiving his B.F.A. and M.F.A. degrees from the Rhode Island School of Design, he studied in England with Patrick Reyntiens, a pioneer in contemporary stained glass, and the author of an international standard work on the technique. Later, as a Fulbright Scholar, Housberg pursued his art at the International Center of Glass Research (CIRVA) in Marseilles, France. Central to his work are the tactile qualities of glass and the expression of its materiality.
