Techniques of Kiln-Formed Glass - Keith Cummings

One of two stunning books by one of our favourite glass artists and academics!

Keith Cummings is a British glass artist whose work appears in public and private collections around the world.  He retired from his position as Head of the Glass Department at Wolverhampton University in 1994, but remains at the University as a reader in Research Studies.

Keith Cummings first published this book in 1980 and it has since become a classic.  In this new version published in 2007, over 50 of the black and white photographs have been replaced with new colour images.  Cummings reviews the history of kiln-forming and discusses the materials and methods involved in it.  He uses the work of an international group of artists to illustrate the text.
