Glass of the Avant-Garde

The collective output of the Middle European centers of glass production demonstrates a thoroughly modern approach to the craft. While most other histories of modernism focus on the primacy of pure form, Glass of the Avant-Garde chronicles the use of ornament, in a wide variety of styles and techniques, by early twentieth-century designers.

The catalogue's appendix, with its table of marks, is especially valuable for collectors and experts, while its stunning color plates and informative texts provide a excellent introduction to modern glass for anyone interested in the field.
