Contemporary Glass Society : ウィキペディア英語版 | Contemporary Glass Society The Contemporary Glass Society (CGS) is an association of artists, collectors, students, writers, organisations, academics, galleries, manufacturers and enthusiasts of Glass. Its aim is to support Artists working in the medium of glass and to promote the development of Glass art, both Nationally and Internationally, while forging links within the glass community. ==Background==
Founded in 1997, by Peter Layton of the ''London Glassblowing Studio'', together with Colin Reid and Tessa Clegg, the Contemporary Glass Society rose from the ashes of ''British Artists in Glass'', an informal association of individual Glass Artists founded in 1976 by a group of artists including the glass sculptor David Reekie.〔See David Reekie page〕 Essentially an informal Craft Guild, ''British Artists in Glass'' was composed almost entirely of artists working in blown and kiln glass. Since its demise in 1992, the representation of British Glass had been left to individual efforts. There was no overall organisation. Through discussions with other like-minded people, Peter Layton identified the need for a unified, ''National Society'', to represent the interests of enthusiasts of glass more generally, within the national and international community. The ''Contemporary Glass Society'' was the result. The first conference was held at the University of Wolverhampton with over 100 attendees and a line-up of speakers including, Keith Cummings, Diana Hobson and Alison Kinnard.
