Art glass, and sculpture-like works of art rendered in the finest glass.
Who are some of the masters of this art,what are the titles of some of their works, and where are some of these works on view?

A: Sculpture in glass is relatively recent. But Galle did small scale commercial sculptures successfully. Lino Tagliapietra is one of the acknowledged modern masters. Much modern glass sculpture has been cast glass in abstract. Look at the collection of Corning Museum of Glass (www.cmog.org)
