Apply for Corning’s New Glass Review 45

It is time to submit your glass work for US-based The Corning Museum of Glass’ flagship annual publication, New Glass Review.

New Glass Review was the result of a 1975 meeting among early leaders of studio glass, who saw that the thriving field of contemporary glass required a place to discover the work of other artists, designers, collectors, museums, and enthusiasts. Four years later, after the exhibition ‘New Glass: A Worldwide Survey’ brought studio glass to people across the US and Europe, the New Glass Review publication was founded.

Every year, entries are invited from anyone from a beginning student to an established artist. Most years, the museum receives around 1,000 submissions from artists, designers, and organisations in more than 50 countries. These submissions are reviewed by a panel of curators, scholars, and artists, led by the Museum’s curator of postwar and contemporary glass or a guest curator. Ultimately, 100 images are selected for publication.

The museum explains that what appears in New Glass Review is “not what is ‘best’ in glass in a given year. Instead, it is a collection of works, chosen by individuals from across the world of glass, arranged to spark new ways to see and think about this incredible material and the people who use it expressively.”

Submissions to New Glass Review 45 are now open and the selectors are excited to see how artists are transforming and pushing the material of glass to new heights of creativity and skill. Work must have been created in the past year and the submission deadline is 7 January 2025.
