Following the events of 1968, he settled in Scandinavia, where he developed a long-standing studio practice shaped by both Central European glass tradition and Scandinavian modernism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"906\"\u003eMandl studied at the College of Glass Art in Železný Brod and later at Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm, with additional training at Orrefors’ Glass School. His early professional experience included work with leading glasshouses such as Kosta and Orrefors, grounding his practice in material discipline and technical rigor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"908\" data-end=\"1419\"\u003eDevoted to sculpture throughout his life, Mandl is known for a distinctive forming and mould-melting technique through which he captures fleeting moments in solid glass and bronze. His works draw inspiration from natural forces and the human body, creating forms that appear frozen in time yet remain visually dynamic. Balancing classical proportion with fluid abstraction, his sculptures invite both contemplation and calm, occupying a distinctive place within collectible contemporary glass art and sculpture. \u003cspan class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem]\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eToday, his creations are featured in public and private collections worldwide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem]\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(172, 160, 110);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSphere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e exemplifies his long-standing exploration of movement, balance, and inner spatial tension in solid glass sculpture.
