Description: "This year marks the fortieth anniversary of Barbara Nanning's graduation in ceramics from the Gerrit Riteveld Academie in Amsterdam (The Netherlands). Over those forty years, Nanning (b. 1957) has become an internationally respected artist with work in countless public and private collections in the Netherlands and around the world. Originally, her reputation was due mainly to her pioneering ceramics and installations, which had completely abondoned the container form that had so long dominated studio pottery. But for the last twenty-five years Nanning has worked chiefly in a different medium: glass, in which she has created an amazing and multi-faceted oeuvre. Each year she spends an extended period in the Czech Republic, where expert glassblowers help her to conjure up the most extraordinary and thrilling objects in that material"--Back cover.
