March 27, 2024: The Myrna and Sheldon Palley Glass Artist Lecture, at the Lowe Art Museum
This great lecture highlighted the glass artist Michael Janis, the Co-Director of the Washington Glass School. After attending the lecture I revisited some of my favorite pieces in the Palley Pavilion. The Lowe Art Museum has one of the best art glass collections in the United States. A selection of some of my favorites are:
Markow & Norris, Eric Markow (b. 1970) Thomas Norris (b. 1966-) “Summer Zenith Kimono,” 2013 Woven glass, gold & silver leaf, metal, fiber and found objects, Collection of Florence and Robert Werner
Hank Murta Adams (b.1956) “Val,” 1989, Cast and blown glass, Promised gift of Myrna and Sheldon Palley
Stephen Powell (b. 1951) “Orange Raining Checks,” 1999, Blown glass Gift of Florence and Robert Werner
