With the exciting
show of Chihuly glass at the
Montreal Museum of Fine Arts opened yesterday, I thought it timely for me to include some photos of glass taken at the
Museum of Arts & Design in New York last month.

| Marine Group, 2008, Steffen Dam, Denmark |
The show runs through August 25, 2013, and celebrates the 50th anniversary of the American Studio Glass movement. It features more than 100 works of glass from the Museum's collection, as well as promised gifts and additional contemporary works on loan. My favourite piece is shown above.

| Untitled No. 202 (Triptych), 2012, Peter Bynum, United States |
The large triptych above is made of six layers of tempered glass, acrylic paint, LED lights, and steel brackets. A detail shot of the side of the piece is shown below.
This last piece is not part of the temporary show, but is permanently installed in a stairwell of the Museum. It is made of stained glass and copper foil.
