Glass art takes many different forms, and we invite you to discover a very special facet of it: STUDIO GLASS, an original movement that emerged in the 1960s.
Some forty works, all from the collections of the Musée du Verre de Meisenthal, will give you an insight into the research of 18 artists involved in this movement, either French artists or those who were closely associated with the French Studio Glass movement.
This contemporary collection invites you to discover a diversity of artistic appropriations of glass.
The term "Studio Glass" refers to studio glass as opposed to glassware. Studio Glass is thus defined as a break with traditional glass and the practices of artists who, until the middle of the 20th century, worked in an industrial glass environment.
