Hot Stuff the Birth of Studio Glass – lecture by Mark Hill.

Although glass has been made for centuries, the 1960s saw a revolution in the way it was made, opening it up to artists across the world and allowing glass to be used as a medium for art. After looking at the historical context and the genesis of the movement, Mark examines the work of six key glass artists from the US and the UK, including Dale Chihuly, Sam Herman, and Peter Layton. Containing previously unseen photographs taken at the time, this talk also includes his top tips and an overview of the market today and the creative journey made by studio glassmakers so far.
