"For more than fifty years, Klaus Moje devoted his life to the art of glass. He called
it the 'most seductive' medium, and in his hands it had the power to delight and amaze
collectors around the world. His lifetime's work changed the practice and appreciation
of contemporary glass. Moje's philosophy of 'working into the hopeful' and his passion
for the colour and geometry he saw in the natural world shone through his kilnformed
glass works, a technique he pioneered. Moje was both artist and educator. After an
apprenticeship in his father's small glass-cutting and glass-grinding business and
a masters degree at the Glasfachschule Hadamar, Moje established his Hamburg studio.
In 1982, he moved to Australia to set up the Glass Workshop at the Canberra School
of Art, one of the most successful glass education programs in the world. Following
10 years teaching, Moje returned to full-time studio work. His life and art inspired
many who chose to work with this medium. In Glass: The life and art of Klaus Moje,
art hisotrian Nola Anderson celebrates the creativity and artistic spirit of this
remarkable artist"--Publisher's description
