DESCRIPTION:Voices in Studio Glass History: Art and Craft\, Maker and Place
 \, and the Critical Writings and Photography of Paul Hollister is a Bard G
 raduate Center multi-media\, web-based digital exhibition and publication 
 that rethinks and reinterprets the history of postwar American studio glas
 s. This project builds upon the work of critic and historian Paul Holliste
 r\, who published over eighty essays and reviews in the field. Concurrentl
 y\, he recorded candid interviews with artists and photographed them at wo
 rk. Both an exhibition and an archive\, Voices in Studio Glass History uni
 tes these materials for the first time\, including unseen images\, recentl
 y transcribed interviews\, and a fully annotated bibliography with linked 
 and downloadable articles. Extensive original research informs this reinte
 rpretation of what became known as the studio glass movement\, grounded in
  unprecedented opportunities to create work outside of factory settings fr
 om the 1960s onwards. In new interviews\, over fifty artists\, curators\, 
 critics\, historians\, and gallerists reflect upon the movement’s past and
  discuss its future. What emerges are themes of experimentation\, shared k
 nowledge\, community building\, international exchange\, critical debate\,
  the impact of museums and galleries\, and fluidities among the categories
  of art\, craft\, and design.Presented in a rich digital environment\, Voi
 ces in Studio Glass History foregrounds key sites of making and learning s
 uch as UrbanGlass\, the Penland School of Craft\, Pilchuck Glass School\, 
 Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center\, The Corning Museum of Glass\, Blenko Gl
