Designed for Light

December 12, 2003
through February 6, 2005

If art glass ever had a golden age it surely came at the close of the 19th century and flowed into the first quarter of the 20th. This was a period in America and Europe where developments in the sciences increased the vocabulary of artists in how they could enchant this material. Designed for Light showcases art lamps and glass from the studios and workshops of Galle, Tiffany, Loetz, Handel, Steuben and more, all from the collection of Hubert & Melba Gilliam.
