Abstract

Josiah McElheny creates installations of glass objects that are inspired by art history and anecdotes in history or literature. These works are accompanied by historical narratives, blending their identities as historical and modern objects. This book presents a survey of his career as well as documents new work he created while an artist in residence at the Gardner Museum.
