This auction features over 50 works from multiple collections, the most prominent being the collection of Michael and Annie Belkin. Michael, one of AACG's founding members and past president, with his wife Annie, were early collectors of studio glass art. They had an incredible eye and we here at Habatat are honored to be able to offer their collection.

You are also welcome to bid live as well as each work will sell to the highest bidder subject to reserve. I am available for any questions you may have. - Aaron Schey
Most of these artists have works in both museums and private collections around the world. In the recent past many of the newly appointed museum directors have acquired glass artworks to increase attention to their museums. Museums such as the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation, the Flint Institute of Arts, The Imagine Museum, Toledo Museum of Art, the Fort Wayne Museum of Art and many more. The artworks included in this exhibition offer a vast history of the contemporary glass art movement that started in 1962.
