BANGERT, Albrecht. - GLASWERK.
Bussum/Antwerpen, Moussault/Standaard, 1981 Gebrocheerd, originele uitgeversomslag in kleur, 28.9x23 cm., 96 pp., geillustreerd in kleur en in z/w. ISBN 9022611736. ¶ Met de toenemende belangstelling voor kunstobjecten heeft in het bijzonder de glaskunst een nieuwe plaats ingenomen. De artistieke kwaliteit van oude glaskunst wordt daarom tegenwoordig zowel letterlijk als figuurlijk hoog gewaardeerd. In deze editie worden door middel van vele afbeeldingen, grotendeels in kleur, de mooiste creaties uit glas tussen het tijdperk van de Renaissance en de Jugendstil getoond : allereerst het elegante glaswerk "a la facon de Venise", dan het pompeuze, meestal gegraveerde Duitse barokglas, het grove, maar bekoorlijke Waldglas, Engels bleikristal, kleurrijk biedermeierglas uit Bohemen, de symbolistische glaskunst van de Jugendstil en "Pate de Verre" -werken uit de jaren twintig.
