Austrian glassmaking underwent a transformative period at the turn of the 20th century, when ideas, individuals, and cultures rallied around modernism. Surveyed here are 172 works by glass designers (then known as architects) such as Josef Hoffmann, Vally, and Koloman Moser, whose creations demonstrate the variety of techniques and aesthetics that revolutionized Austrian glass.
Josef Hoffmann, Tableware Set of Nine Blown Vessels, 1916.
