| From
the Publisher Book Description Although people have heated silica to form glass for thousands of years, the contemporary art glass movement began with a simple workshop just 40 years ago. In the interim, the movement has grown into an international phenomenon, fueled by the drama of hot-glass techniques and the beauty of frozen light and color in glass works of art. Contemporary Glass presents the work of artists important to the early expansion of the field, as well as new artists who continue to explore this most beautiful and demanding art medium. * Stellar
work by top artists in the field |

Book
Review: In "Chihuly: Seaforms," Artforum art critic Seeman Robinson discusses Chihuly's most exquisite and ethereal series, invoking the spontaneous automatic drawings of the Surrealists, the water lilies of Claude Monet, the action painting of Jackson Pollock, and Henri Matisse's "Swimming Pool." Oceanographer and explorer, Sylvia Earle, former chief scientist of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, finds in Chihuly's evocative Seaforms not only "reflections of skill, passion, teamwork and sheer genius" but also "tributes" to the sea. The saturated color of the 4D full-color pages, including many double-page spreads, conveys the sensuousness of Chihuly's glass works and drawings. |

From
the Publisher For some thirty years, artist Dale Chihuly has dazzled critics and international audiences with his glass art. His genius has been both singular, in the extent to which he has stretched the glass medium itself, and plural, in his revolutionizing of the American studio glass movement. As a cofounder of the Pilchuck Glass School, north of Seattle, Chihuly's teaching and vision have led American artists who work with this magical medium to worldwide prominence, and glassblowing itself has risen to new heights of achievement and a respected place in the fine arts of this century. This revised and expanded second edition of Chihuly includes additional images that further illustrate the remarkable work and career of the world-renowned glass artist. In this first full-scale study of Chihuly's career to date, the distinguished art critic Donald Kuspit broadens our understanding of Chihuly's innovative and avidly sought-after work. Enhanced by superb new photographs of Chihuly's spectacular glass sculpture, Kuspit's essay explores the relationship of medium to artistry and craftsmanship, as well as the dynamics of the creative process. |
