One of the largest, most prestigious places for glass art is the Corning Museum of Glass in upstate New York. The Museum was founded in 1951 by the Corning glass company and has an amazing collection. Located in the bucolic Finger Lakes region, Corning has multiple attractions including a hot studio where you can watch glass art be made or participate in the process yourself. I've visited the Museum four times.
The Museum just acquired a work from Anja Isphording, one of the artists in my personal collection. Anja's work explores nature in a way that appeals to me. Pictured here is a piece I acquired two years ago.
For an artist, having your work in a museum is a serious vote of approval.
