  • Challenging Boundaries: the History and Reception of American Studio Glass 1960 to 1990
    CHALLENGING BOUNDARIES: THE HISTORY AND RECEPTION OF AMERICAN STUDIO GLASS 1960 TO 1990 Martha Drexler Lynn A Dissertation Presented to the FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Art History) (August 2000) ABSTRACT This dissertation addresses the dilemma feeing the American studio glass movement after World War U: Can art be fashioned out of glass, or do the utilitarian associations embedded within the medium preclude it from being considered an acceptable art medium? This dissertation is the Erst to examine this question that reveals both the early history of the movement and the clash of ambitions and power that mark- the relationship between the craft and high art worlds. The Introduction frames the question, defines the terms used, and reviews the sparse literature found in the craft and high art worlds. Part 1 (three chapters) presents the early history and distinctive characteristics of the movement to 1975. Chapter 1 analyzes the evolving terminology (from art glass to studio glass), the effects of production practice (factory or studio), and the adoption of high art customs. Chapter 2 reviews not only philosophical and circumstantial factors that shaped studio glass, the state of glassm aking practice before the proto-studio glassmakers, the emergence of pioneering practitioners, the importance of the Asilomar conference of 1957, early institutional support, the founding of The Coming Museum 1 of Glass, the Glass 1959 exhibition, but how each benefited from the resolution of technical issues, permitting expanded artistic expression. Chapter 3 covers the contested history (1955- 62), the influential exhibitions, and pre-1975 marketing and collecting patterns.

More than 40 states will host a total of 120 exhibits of his work. He will turn 100 on June 26. “The diversity of these exhibits is a true reflection of the breadth of his exciting body of work and his time- less groundbreaking influence on modern life,” said David Deming ’67, president and chief executive officer of The Cleveland Institute of Art. The exhibits, coordinated by the Viktor Schreckengost Foundation, will include the first mass-produced dinnerware line (for American Limoges), the first cab- over-engine truck (for White Motors), and the first economical pedal cars for children.

This year as in the past, the exhibition gives as comprehensive a review as circum- stances permit of the best contemporary work of the artist-potters of the United States and Canada, the latter being represented rather more fully than usual. Because of the fragility and often considerable bulk of the material and all the difficulties and expense of its transportation, the physical obstacles alone make a completely successful outcome almost impossible.
