This lavishly illustrated book bears witness to the remarkable flowering of glass as a contemporary creative medium. Australian Glass Today surveys glass vessels and sculptural forms by 45 leading Australian artists, presents seductive images of recent work with background notes, and showcases the latest trend towards using blown and kiln-formed glass as a luminous canvas for further embellishment through a repertoire of carving, cutting and etching techniques.

This first substantial survey will be an invaluable reference book for glass collectors, enthusiasts and educators.
