For the first time, Steuben Glass, the premier American glassmaker, will host a trunk show at Bellagio in Las Vegas. The trunk show will showcase Steuben’s hand-crafted, designs by the late artist James Houston and sculptor Michele Oka Doner, among others. Houston’s work is influenced by the time he spent in the Arctic with the Inuit people and can be seen in the permanent collections of many museums including: Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Winnipeg Art Museum. Oka Doner’s Reef Collection for Steuben represents her first work with glass and translates natural forms into objects of power and seduction. This is a rare opportunity for Bellagio guests to view a selection of Steuben’s limited edition and exhibition works.
Highlights include: Arctic Fisherman, Arctic Mother and Child Haida Fisherman, Running River, World Traveler and Ocean Reef Bowl. These designs feature special techniques such as copper-wheel engraving, an increasingly rare, centuries-old technique.
