description: A master of the art of glassblowing and a practitioner of the complexities of conceptual art, Josiah McElheny stretches and twists the fragile borders between appearance and reality, truth and imagination, tradition and modernity, text and object. From original documents such as the archeological remains of a child's grave, the fashion designs of Venini, and 16th-century frescos, McElheny creates a physical world of glass.
