When reviewing these works, we are once again impacted by the many ideas and the great diversity that glass has afforded so many artists. As we have been doing auctions involving glass, our first in 1993, we are proud of the amazing number of truly significant works that we have auctioned. This year we bring you many sculptures that are known for being seminal pieces in each artist’s body of work. Please review the auction catalogue including the terms and conditions and feel free to call us with any questions that you may have. All of the work is in excellent condition unless we indicate otherwise.
