Celebrates the thoughtfulness, wit, and sense of wonder that are signatures of Callan's work

Seeing glass through the eyes of Nancy Callan is a delight, and experiencing the material through her work is a master class in the artistic process. Her elegant, playful designs are inspired by a seemingly limitless visual vocabulary and are executed with extraordinary technical expertise.

The book is organized as a series of thematic groupings that explore the sources of inspiration that have fueled Callan's career: pop art and graphics, pattern and textiles, and nature and the wonders of the universe. Each grouping is represented by a curated sequence of artworks, illustrating Callan's conceptual development and her exploration of form and pattern. It includes new work, created and documented in the museum's Hot Shop through a series of residencies.

Nancy Callan: Forces at Play invites viewers to see the medium of glass with the same curiosity and passion that have fueled Callan's artistic career.
