RECORDED LINK Henry Halem Behind The Scenes: The Early Years of the Studio Glass Movement Lecture
This lecture offers the incredible opportunity to hear from an eyewitness to American glass history!
Glass pioneer, Henry Halem, shares an historical overview of how American art glass production moved from the designer/factory model to the small studio in this lecture. He will begin in 1962 and show stunning visuals of how that famous Toledo workshop changed the craft of art glassmaking from its beginnings in American factories to a new artist studio centered model around the world.
Halem illustrates the important growth of the university glass programs, other schools and their teachers, artists, and the equipment that changed continuously over the next 50 years.
