Description |
Steven Maslach (San Francisco 1950; Lives and works in Bainbridge Island, Washington) Dichroic Bowl 91-20, 1991 Blown dichroic glass and polished crystal 11 x 19 3/4 inches Knoxville Museum of Art, 2013 gift of Linda Neely in honor of Richard Jolley and Tommie Rush Steven Maslach is an important figure in California's Bay Area studio glass movement. He is especially known for his transparent blown forms using refined dichroic glass, which contains multiple micro-layers of metals or oxides which give the glass a particular transmitted color and a completely different reflected color. In Dichroic Bowl 91-20, he creates a striking contrast between the delicate, symmetrical blown upper portion and the thick, irregular slab base. |
