Glass has been "hot" since the contemporary studio movement in the U.S. stoked the flames of free expression 4 decades ago. Breathtakingly beautiful examples of both "hot and "cold" glass by 130 international contemporary glass artists producing both functional and sculptural pieces, have a visual and poetic impact that this beautiful book strikingly conveys. These are the most creative examples of color, light and form in contemporary glass that can be seen.
