Nancy Callan: Forces at Play opens October 5, 2024.
A twenty-year survey, “Forces At Play” showcases Callan’s innovative artwork in glass, including a number of new works made at the Museum of Glass. The exhibition unfolds through a series of thematic groupings based around the sources of inspiration that have fueled Callan’s career: Pop Art and Graphics, Pattern and Textiles, and Nature and Wonders. Each theme is represented by a curated sequence of artworks, illustrating Callan’s conceptual development and her exploration of form and pattern. More information about the show can be found on the Museum of Glass website.
The exhibition is accompanied by a hardcover catalog with contributions by Katie Buckingham, Gayle Clemans, and Kim Harty.
