Remarkable and wonderful glass instalations. |
Glass art includes the creation of stained glass,
working glass in a torch flame (lampworking), glass
beadmaking, glass casting, glass fusing, and the
making of glass shapes through glass blowing. It
dates back to prehistoric times, was extensively
developed in Egypt and Assyria, brought to the fore
by the Romans, and had its greatest triumphs in
European cathedral building in stained glass rose-windows.
Great ateliers like Tiffany, Lalique, Daum, Galle,
the Corning schools in upper New York state, and
Stubbe glassworks took glass art to the highest
levels. Murano glass has not kept pace with production,
but is still home to more glass masters than any
other single place on Earth... |
