Item Name: Contemporary Glass SKU: BK10 Description: Contemporary Glass is a soft cover survey book that traces the modern glass movement from its early precursors through major contemporary artists, using extensive color plates to show work from the Corning Museum of Glass collection. It is constructed as a large-format, image-forward reference with 400 color illustrations, making it valuable for lampworkers who want broader context for how flameworked work fits into the larger studio glass world, and for anyone looking to study form, composition, and surface treatment across multiple glass disciplines. This book is authored by Susanne K. Frantz. The ISBN is 9780810910386. How it is used: Use this book as a studio and design reference when planning new work or refining your visual vocabulary. Review the plates to study proportion, color relationships, and surface approaches, then translate those ideas into lampworked beads, small sculpture, or components that can be assembled into larger mixed-media pieces. It is also a strong teaching resource for introducing students to the history and breadth of contemporary studio glass. Dimensions: 10" x 12" 264 Pages
