For five thousand years, artisans have worked in glass to create forms that serve and delight. But only recently have artists turned their hands and minds to this traditionally utilitarian and decorative material. Clearly Inspired contrasts the work contemporary artists working in glass that have inspired them top replicate forgotten techniques and to explore the formal or conecptual concerns that fascinated their artistic antecedcents. This is a full color catalog of glass works, many of which were in our Contemporary Glass show in 2005.
