Collections at the Corning Museum of Glass Collections at the Corning Museum of Glass The Corning Museum of Glass is home to the world’s most comprehensive collection of glass. Encompassing more than 3,500 years of human ingenuity and spanning the globe, the collection of nearly 50,000 objects ranges from ancient Egyptian and Venetian masterpieces to works by contemporary artists. Origins of Glassmaking The ingenuity of the earliest glassmakers is explored through vessels, jewelry, and sculptural objects from ancient Egypt, Western Asia, and the Hellenistic world of the eastern Mediterranean. Highlights include: • One of the earliest known glass portraits, a rare ancient glass sculpture of an Egyptian king dating from the late 18th Dynasty, about 1450–1400 B.C. • An Assyrian vase, one of an early series of cast and cold-worked forms. • Glass and faience bead necklaces from Mycenaean southern Greece. • Hellenistic luxury glass, including lace mosaic and gold sandwich bowls. Glass of the Romans The Romans are credited with the discovery of glassblowing and also created some of the most lavish luxury glass ever made. The Corning Museum’s collection encompasses rare and sumptuous examples of ancient cage cups, mosaic, cameo, and gold glass. Highlights include: • A suspended cage cup from the early fourth century A.D., an exceptional luxury item likely used as a lamp. • The Populania Bottle, an outstanding example of a late Roman vessel with wheel-abraded decoration. • The Morgan cup, a rare early Roman cameo vessel decorated with a bas-relief continuous frieze, once owned by J. Pierpont Morgan. • A serving dish cover in the form of a fish from the first century A.D. Glass of the Islamic World Glassmaking flourished in Egypt and the Middle East at the time of the Arab conquest in the seventh century. Islamic craftsmen discovered glass staining and revived and rediscovered ancient techniques. The Corning Museum’s collection includes richly enameled and gilded glasses, mold-blown decorative objects, mosaic, and cut and engraved glass. Highlights include: • The earliest known example of an Islamic drinking horn (only two other Islamic glass drinking horns are known). • An enameled and gilded vase, the most celebrated type of Islamic glass, from 14th-century Egypt or Syria. • The Corning Ewer, a cameo glass vessel of the 10th century. European Glass The Corning Museum has rich collections of European glass from all time periods and representing all historic techniques and styles. Highlights include: • The Behaim beaker, a Venetian enameled glass that commemorates a marriage held in 1495. • Numerous outstanding examples Venetian cristallo and filigrana glass. • A gold ruby goblet that was made in the glasshouse of the German alchemist and glassmaker Johann Kunckel. • A lampworked tableau from 1790 depicting Marie Antoinette and lamenting the demise of the aristocracy during the French Revolution. Asian Glass The Corning Museum has collections of carved ceremonial objects from Qing Dynasty China, blown and cut vessels from Edo period Japan, beaded containers from Indonesia and luxury glassware from India, among other fine examples of Asian glass production. Highlights include: • The Warrior Vase, an elaborately decorated ruby glass vessel from China, dated to the Qianlong period. • A set of four 18th-century bottles from the Mughal Empire in India with opulent gilded and enameled decoration. • A sakazuki set from 19th-century Japan, used for ceremonial sake drinking. • Three beaded wedding baskets from Indonesia. American Glass Glassmaking was America’s first industry: Colonists built a glasshouse in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1608. The glasshouse closed shortly thereafter, and although others were started, few were successful until the 19th century. After 1812, glass manufacturing greatly increased, and in the 1820s, American glassmakers invented a hand- operated glass pressing machine, which made production much faster and more cost effective. Highlights include: • One of only three marked bottles from the Wistar factory, the first successful glass factory in the Colonies. • One of the earliest known dated pieces of American glass: a covered tumbler, produced in 1788 at the factory of John Frederick Amelung. • Early examples of pressed glass from the Boston & Sandwich Glass Company and others. • A four-layer vase made at the New England Glass Company around 1848. • Examples of elaborately decorated art glass and cut glass from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Modern Glass The Corning Museum holds an international collection of art glass vessels, design, decorative objects, sculpture, stained glass, furniture, and lighting dating from the 1880s through the 1950s. Highlights include: • Art Nouveau vases by Emile Gallé, Louis Comfort Tiffany, and Johann Loetz Witwe. • Stained glass by Louis Comfort Tiffany and Frank Lloyd Wright. • Pâte de verre sculptures and vessels by Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, Francois Decorchemont, and Georges Despret. • Early Modernist designs by Peter Behrens, Josef Hoffman, and Kolomon Moser. • Glass furnishings, including lighting by René Lalique and Gerrit Rietveld. • Art Deco vases by Marcel Goupy, René Lalique, and Napoleone Martinuzzi. • Early studio glass by Maurice Marinot and Jean Sala. • Italian, Scandinavian, and Czech glass design from the 1950s. Contemporary Glass In 1962, art in glass was dramatically transformed with the beginning of the Studio Glass movement in the United States, and its subsequent development worldwide. In 2015, the Museum opens the Contemporary Art + Design Wing, designed by architect Thomas Phifer. The 26,000-square foot gallery is the largest space in the world devoted to the display of contemporary art in glass, and showcases the Museum’s rich permanent collection. Encompassing contemporary studio glass, from 1990 to the present, the collection includes vessels, objects, sculptures, and installations. 2 Highlights include: • Commissions created for the Corning Museum of Glass by artists Fred Wilson, Jeroen Verhoeven, and Ayala Serfaty. • Large-scale sculpture and installations, which include works by Dale Chihuly, Roni Horn, Beth Lipman, Liza Lou, Josiah Mcelheny, Klaus Moge, Kiki Smith, and Robert Rauschenberg. • An extensive collection of cast glass sculpture, including works by Nicolas Africano, Karen LaMonte, Clifford Rainey, and Ann Wolff. • A wide range of vessel-based works by international artists such as Tony Cragg, Laura Donefer, Bert Frijns, Maria Grazia Rosin, Lino Tagliapietra, and Frantisek Vizner. • International design featuring a range of functional glass vessels, furniture, lighting, and design art by Cini Boeri and Tomu Katayanagi for FIAM, Studio Job, Christophe Côme, Tejo Remy and René Veenhuizen, Maria Grazia Rosin, and Dan Dailey. On March 20, 2015, The Corning Museum of Glass unveils the $64-million Contemporary Art + Design Wing, featuring a daylight-filled 26,000-square-foot contemporary art gallery. The design, by architect Thomas Phifer and Partners, is a square, minimalist white glass building containing soaring, daylight-filled galleries, encouraging visitors to see glass in a new light. The addition will also house one of the world’s largest facilities for glassblowing demonstrations and live glass design sessions. This Hot Glass Demo space will accommodate 500 people and feature a gallery-level balcony running around the perimeter of the venue, offering 360-degree views of the glassmaking below. This new space is set in the footprint of the former Steuben Glass factory, a luxury glass line that closed in 2011. Study Gallery Additionally, the Museum houses a study gallery in which myriad glass objects from all periods are on display for the public. The objects included in this gallery are arranged by origin, allowing for comparative analysis of a single form across cultures and centuries. Also on view is the permanent exhibition Paperweights of the World, one of the world’s largest collections of glass paperweights. Adjacent to The Studio at the Museum is the Carder Gallery, which traces the prolific career and creations of Frederick Carder, the gifted English designer who managed Steuben Glass Works for many years. About The Corning Museum of Glass The Corning Museum of Glass is the foremost authority on the art, history, science, and design of glass. It is home to the world’s most important collection of glass, including the finest examples of glassmaking spanning 3,500 years.

  • Reflecting Antiquity Explores the Rediscovery of Roman Glass and Its Influence on Modern Glass Production
    Reflecting Antiquity explores the rediscovery of Roman glass and its influence on modern glass production. It brings together 112 objects from more than 24 lenders, featuring ancient Roman originals as well as the modern replicas they inspired. Following are some of the highlights on view in the exhibition. Portland Vase Base Disk The Portland Vase is the most important and famous work of cameo glass to have survived from ancient Rome. Modern analysis of the vase, with special attention to the elongation of the bubbles preserved in the lower body, suggest that it was originally shaped as an amphora (storage vessel) with a pointed base. At some point in antiquity, the vessel suffered some damage and acquired this replacement disk. The male figure and the foliage on the disk were not carved by the same Unknown artist that created the mythological frieze on the vase.

Signature: …………………. Date: ………………………. Abstract 2 Abstract This thesis is an investigation into the development of glass as an expressive medium in China through direct contact with Western methods of making, decoration and forming glass. The investigation proceeds through an analysis of the parallels between glass objects produced from Kangxi (1662-1722) to Qianlong period (1736-96), and contemporary practitioners’ (2000-2009), which is complemented by my own practice. The investigation mainly looks at three aspects and their inter-relationship within these strands. They are: 1) the history of glassmaking from 1696 to 1795 in the Qing dynasty with Western influences; 2) the analysis of Contemporary Chinese studio/academic glass within the imported UK model; 3) the development of my personal glass practice within this matrix.

    ENGLISH CAMEO GLASS Britain and the United States. It stimulated a lively reaction. An English firm, W. H., B. and J. Richardson, displayed blue, green, and red cased glass at a Manchester exhibition in 1845-6, and the April 1846 David Whitehouse issue of The Art-Union magazine noted that “Messrs. Richardson are directing considerable attention to the improvement of coloured glasses;…these gentlemen have…already made great advances in rivalling the productions of Bohemia; and we have little doubt that a few years hence, we shall see at least equal the best of the imported articles.” Indeed, very soon the stage was set for the English cameo glass revival. The centre of this revival was Stourbridge on the edge of the Black Country, one of the cradles of the Industrial Revolution, which derived its popular name from the soot spewed out by the region’s innumerable factories. Glass has been made here since the 17th century. In 1845, the British government repealed the Glass Excise Act, which not only taxed raw materials, but also required glassmakers to pay licence fees and to keep detailed records of their activities. Freed from these burdens, glassmaking became a highly competitive industry. The glassmakers of Stourbridge rose to the occasion, quickly establishing an international reputa- tion for quality. Their acknowledged leader was Figure 2. Replica of the Portland Vase. Wordsley, carved by John Benjamin Richardson.

  • La Lorraine Artiste: Nature, Industry, and the Nation in the Work of Émile Gallé and the École De Nancy
    La Lorraine Artiste: Nature, Industry, and the Nation in the Work of Émile Gallé and the École de Nancy By Jessica Marie Dandona A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Darcy Grimaldo Grigsby, Chair Professor Anne Wagner Professor Andrew Shanken Spring 2010 Copyright © 2010 by Jessica Marie Dandona All rights reserved Abstract La Lorraine Artiste: Nature, Industry, and the Nation in the Work of Émile Gallé and the École de Nancy by Jessica Marie Dandona Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art University of California, Berkeley Professor Darcy Grimaldo Grigsby, Chair My dissertation explores the intersection of art and politics in the career of 19th-century French designer Émile Gallé. It is commonly recognized that in fin-de-siècle France, works such as commemorative statues and large-scale history paintings played a central role in the creation of a national mythology. What has been overlooked, however, is the vital role that 19th-century arts reformers attributed to material culture in the process of forming national subjects. By educating the public’s taste and promoting Republican values, many believed that the decorative arts could serve as a powerful tool with which to forge the bonds of nationhood. Gallé’s works in glass and wood are the product of the artist’s lifelong struggle to conceptualize just such a public role for his art. By studying decorative art objects and contemporary art criticism, then, I examine the ways in which Gallé’s works actively participated in contemporary efforts to define a unified national identity and a modern artistic style for France.
