Drawn from Palm Springs Art Museum’s permanent collection, which includes major gifts of glass artworks from David Kaplan and Glenn Ostergaard, Pure, Simple, and Beautiful Forms features pieces by artists from the United States and abroad.

At a time when we are confronted by tumultuous global issues that challenge the sustainability of the planet, this exhibition examines essential universal qualities of beauty, purity, and simplicity as created by artists working in glass.

This season’s exhibitions are sponsored by the Herman & Faye Sarkowsky Charitable Foundation and Yvonne & Steve* Maloney (*in memoriam).

This exhibition is organized by the Palm Springs Art Museum and curated by Katherine Hough, former Chief Curator.

Generous support is provided by Angie Gerber and Deborah & Kenneth Novack.

This season’s exhibitions are sponsored by the Herman & Faye Sarkowsky Charitable Foundation and Yvonne & Steve* Maloney (*in memoriam).
