contemporary sculpture and installations
"Glass as a recognized and increasingly valued material in contemporary art? Glass has indeed advanced from a neglected material to a congenial one. The volume presents the exciting artistic practices of working with glass: from small objects to installations by 50 international artists such as Monica Bonvicini, Tony Cragg, Carlos Garaicoa, Mona Hatoum, Shirazh Houshiary, Laure Prouvost, Kiki Smith, and important representatives of the studio glass movement. They all use its special properties of lucidity, reflection, and fragility, the possibilities of technical refinement in form and color; they work with its traditional cultural dimensions, narrative quality, and emotional aura. With stimulating texts by experts and numerous illustrations, the book is a discourse on contemporary glass in art." -back of book
