About Glass
Contemporary Sculpture and Installation Art
In its feel, plasticity, luminosity and narrative quality, glass is a material like no other, captivating us with its immediacy. Artists such as Monica Bonvicini, Erwin Eisch, Carlos Garaicoa, Mona Hatoum, Shirazeh Houshiary, Laure Prouvost, Kiki Smith and Ann Wolff have appreciated the unique physicality of glass, inspiring them to create sensational works.
description
This publication represents a new contribution to the discourse on glass as a material in contemporary art. Often categorised under crafts or as a design material, glass has become an important medium for fine art in recent decades, which the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung has supported through exhibitions, scientific work and the establishment of a collection. This book presents a selection of around fifty artists from different geographical and cultural backgrounds. They demonstrate the diverse artistic practice of working with glass: from spectacular small objects to installations.
