Summary

"Glass: Material Matters is the first exhibition of contemporary glass organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and incorporates more than fifty works from LACMA's permanent collection. This eclectic presentation is organized to reflect a spectrum of thematic, formal, and technical directions in glass primarily from the mid-1980s to the present; the works of such artists as Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster, Maya Lin, and Rem Koolhaas, who have been important innovators in glass. This show with its diversity of subjects will underscore LACMA's commitment to the collection and display of contemporary works in glass."--Publisher's website.
