Space Gun, Dan Dailey, c. 1985, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Decorative Arts, Textiles and Sculpture

gun shape, with ball-like end on back of barrel and protruding element on front of barrel; clear glass with bubbles This is an early work in a career known for clever figural vases and architectural installations for hospitals, corporate headquarters, individuals, and public buildings. Over the last forty years Dailey has been deeply involved in the world of studio glass. His foundation of the Glass Department of the Massachusetts College of Art in 1972 is only one of his many contributions to art glass education. He has also designed for companies such as Steuben Glass, Cristallerie Daum, and the Fenton Art Glass Company and in countries from Italy to the United States. Space Gun is a piece of retro-futurism, a reworking of references from 1950s and 1960s space pulp comics, television, and movies, re-imagined in a fragile art form. Size: 5 13/16 x 2 9/16 x 10 3/8 in. (14.76 x 6.51 x 26.35 cm) Medium: Hot worked glass

Men Flying Kites, Dan Dailey, 1975, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Decorative Arts, Textiles and Sculpture

clear glass lidded vessel; wide, bulbous foot; vessel has high shoulder with inward flare toward mouth; inverted bell-shaped cover; clear glass with engraving overall--Art Deco-style patterns, band of repeated stick figures along mouth and band of stick figure-like men standing on stools, flying bird-shaped kites Over the last forty years Dailey has been deeply involved in the world of studio glass. His foundation of the Glass Department of the Massachusetts College of Art in 1972 is only one of his many contributions to art glass education. He has also designed for companies such as Steuben Glass, Cristallerie Daum, and Fenton Art Glass Company and in countries from Italy to the United States. Whimsy and narrative--along with glass innovation--form important components of his work. This engraved covered jar references Art Deco engraved glass from Orrefors in Sweden, but the subject matter is wholly contemporary. Size: 13 13/16 x 6 1/4 x 6 1/4 in. (35.08 x 15.88 x 15.88 cm) Medium: Engraved blown glass
