Focuses on the work of two artists who live on different continents--Europe and North America - and use colourless glass
Glimmering Gone focuses on the work of two artists who live on different continents - Europe and North America. Ingalena Klenell is recognized for her intricate, lacelike kiln-formed compositions, while Beth Lipman is best known for her European-inspired glass still lifes. Both use colorless glass in large-scale installations to convey the strength and fragility of nature and the relationship of humans to the landscape.
The two artists have collaborated on three large-scale installations of colorless and white glass - Landscape, Mementos, and Artifacts - that present a metaphor for material culture, landscape, and life. Glimmering Gone presents their work in an elegant accordian-fold, slipcased volume.

"The ingeniously accordion-folded volume Glimmering Gone is a visual feast for the eyes. . . . Packaged in a black slipcase, it is a welcome addition to any glass lover's library."

"A coda on artist Abby Williams Hill, who influenced the work of Lipman and Klenell, provides an unexpected bonus."
