   Extractions: Louis Comfort Tiffany, one of the most creative and prolific designers of the late 19th century, declared that his life-long goal was "the pursuit of beauty." With its comprehensive assemblage of Tiffany's work, the Morse Museum's collection uniquely documents that quest. Although his father, Charles Lewis, had founded the most prestigious silver and jewelry company in America, Louis chose another professional direction. Originally trained as a painter, he began studying the chemistry and techniques of glassmaking when he was 24. He developed this interest as a partner in the firm of Louis C. Tiffany and Associated Artists, which in its four years of operation (1879-1883) provided innovative interior decoration for clients ranging from Mark Twain in Hartford, Connecticut to President Chester Arthur at the White House. Both schools thought that they alone were being "truthful," an ideal central to the philosophy of the Arts and Crafts movement. Equally important was the goal of design unity. First manifested in his efforts to create complete interiors, Tiffany's commitment to unity was extended to the design and manufacture of stained glass. The leading necessary to hold the pieces of glass together became a fully integrated design element, simulating, for example, the stems of plants. And Tiffany was convinced that the actual production of a stained-glass window required the artist's involvement at every stage, even in a factory setting-from creating the first sketches to overseeing how the glass was selected, cut and assembled.

   Extractions: rec Danish Radio 1998 DA CAPO MARCO POLO 8.224048 Glass took a different, and for his music less successful, route from his contemporary and countryman Carl Nielsen. Glass with a strong creative faculty, and no mean tunesmith, occupied the late-romantic territory. He could not be considered a modernist. Glass is a confident exponent of the heartland established by Tchaikovsky and Grieg. He might well be regarrded as a reaxctionary but his way with thematic invention is strong and individualistic. There are four Glass string quartets of which the 'true' no. 2 has been lost. The one labelled no. 2 on this disc was in fact the third. First written in 1896 it was reworked in 1929. Whatever the number the A Minor work is tenebrous, romantic, but not one of blooming confidence. The mood is twilit and on the darker margins of twilight. You may think of Grieg but with an early 20th century accent. At times the music seems to picture a populated street palely lit by candles and humming with amorous intrigue and threat. The quartet strikes the listener more as an exploration of mood rather than a grand propulsive musical statement. In the finale a Brucknerian tension (lit up by some taut and quiet writing) is undeniable.

16. The Rivalry Between Louis Comfort Tiffany And John La Farge
    Long illustrated article on the competition between La Farge and Tiffany, both of whom claimed to have invented American opalescent stained glass, both of whom trademarked it, their legal battle and its outcome.  
    http://www.jlsloan.com/lct1.htm
    
    Extractions: Opposite: Fig. 2. John La Farge in his Studio, c. 1895. J. Walker MeSpadden, Famous Painters of America (New York: Thomas Y. Crowell, 1907), opposite 194. Courtesy of Dr. James L. Yarnall. By the mid-1890s, the issue between these two great artists had become one of seniority: which of them had first introduced opalescent glass in stained glass windows? The question has remained to this day, with every succeeding generation of books and articles on each artist claiming pride of invention. But historical research provides the answer, along with the reason for the question in the first place. Hubris, financial and social disaster, opportunism, and ultimately market share are in large part the explanation. Prior to 1882, relations between the two artists were not acrimonious. Writing many years later, La Farge related that Tiffany had visited him in the 1870s. La Farge had willingly shown him his experiments with opalescent glass and plating (the layering of one piece over another to achieve colors or effects), clearly establishing that it was he who introduced Tiffany to the material. If we accept La Farge's recollections that he and Tiffany were on apparently good terms at that time, friendly enough for La Farge to show the young artist his work, clearly something went wrong after that.

    Quick coverage of early glass history, then concentration on American developments in stained glass, including louis Comfort Tiffany and Frank Lloyd Wright.  
    http://www.shopsmartxpress.com/AmeriGls/AB.htm
    
    Extractions: Stained Glass has origins dating back to the development of glass making in ancient Egypt in the second century B.C. The Greeks and Romans extensively used mosaics made of pebbles and colored ceramic glass chips. The mosaic art flourished well into the 10th century A.D. Stained glass as we know it today was first used in European religious panels around the 11th century A.D. However, the craft fell into a period of decline during the "Dark Ages", as did all the arts. The colored "see through" type of stained glass is still known today as "cathedral" stained glass. This was originally clear glass which had a colored "stain" applied to it. The "stained" glass was soon developed into a glass which had the stain incorporated into the actual glass by adding metals and minerals to the molten glass resulting in a tinted glass which we know today as "cathedral glass". Stained glass windows were used in European cathedrals from the 1100's. The use of stained glass expanded during the Renaissance period of art revival of the 14th century and the building of grand cathedrals in Europe during the 1400's through the 1700's. During this period, the use of stained glass outside the church, however, was rare.

    Extractions: A lthough not clean, clear and glossy like glass, cast glaze is a far cry from the earthen incinerations that lie close to my heart. The process was a product of circumstances at Illinois State University where I spent my first year of graduate school. Joel Meyers, who runs the glass program, had managed to have a truckload of refractories donated to the school. The glass department, housed in a building too small for the program, was filled to the brim with ceramic-fiber products. Equipment was buried behind boxes of fiber, and the question soon arose as to whether the fiber was worth its storage space. An excess of expensive material underfoot is a great instigator of experimentation. Not only might I never have gotten a chance to use stuff like this for free again, its use was a space-saving public service. Consequently, glass was blown into ceramic-fiber tubes; molten glass was poured into other forms; fiber was wrapped, compressed, ground, melted and then disposed of. B N ew problems continued to crop up, though. When I was invited to be a visiting artist at the New York Experimental Glass Workshop in Little Italy on the isle of Manhattan, I ground 50 pounds of glass, set the slurry in the back of my car and drove from Montana to New York. On arrival, I discovered that the ground glass had settled into a rocknot the normal too-much-feldspar in-the-recipe kind of rock, but a solid, capable-of-deflecting substantial-swings-of-a-hammer concrete. Not to be outdone by what was once a slurry, I went to Canal Street and bought a blender. After crushing the rock with a hammer as best I could, I threw it in. Within a few minutes, I had a few quarts of glass slurry and stubs instead of blender blades.
