Publisher Description: Here is an inspiring collection of glass art made by women artists, along with their stories told in their own words. Throughout the early and mid 20th century, women had difficulty finding support in many art mediums. This book displays over 40 talented female artists who have triumphed in the world of glass art, including Asa Brandt, Yoko Ono, and Linda MacNeill. Coming from the 1960s to contemporary times, their beautiful sculptures, mosaics, and delicate creations are illustrated in over 350 dazzling color photographs. This book is a must-have for collectors, enthusiasts, historians studying the studio glass movement, and especially aspiring young artists. |
