The Muskegon Museum of Art will exhibit work by internationally known glass artist, Stephen Rolfe Powell, February 27 – April 24, 2005. Powell’s radiantly colored, giant glass vessels are made with thousands of pieces of colored glass painstakingly laid out on the surface of each piece, insuring a richness and depth of color on each one. The result, as one critic has written, are “swollen sensual forms, [that] easily seduce the viewer with their powerful intensity.” Powell sees his vessels as sensual, to the point that he takes a certain delight when he catches a viewer “fondling” them.
