Summary, etc. "Josh Simpson: Glass Artist introduces not just the artist and his work, but also the inspirations and techniques that Simpson draws upon as he creates wondrous worlds from blown glass. Author Andrew Chaikin reviews Simpson's 30-year career as an artist and glass blower, and explores the factors that combine to shape his art: his family, his lifelong fascination with space exploration, and his home in the Berkshire Mountains of western Massachusetts. Chaikin also describes Simpson at work; in a richly illustrated "studio visit," he documents the making of a megaworld, a basketball-sized globe which is surely one of the most remarkable artifacts of our time." "The portfolio which completes this volume presents objects of pure beauty, both in their entirety and in close-up photography which is, in essence, a reinterpretation of Simpson's imagery. We see vases and goblets, perfectly designed and proportioned, planets and sculptures, remarkable in concept and execution. And with the eye of the camera pressed against the glass surface, we float - as in a dream - into the visionary worlds of Simpson's imagination. It is a stunning experience."--BOOK JACKET.
