March 2010, from The Bellevue Arts Museum website:
"For John and Joyce Price, collecting art is a passion; a unique, personal way of entering into a rich and meaningful life experience as well as a way of being receptive and responsible to life. Collecting objects has allowed them to establish not only a dialogue with artists, but also to grow into lifelong friendships with them. Each object is a reminder of an intimacy established over time through giving and receiving. At a time when the world is fragmented and chaotic, the Prices have sought to share objects that speak of balance, beauty and harmony.
Enamored by the art created in the United States' Pacific Northwest and British Columbia, the Prices' collection includes works in all art and craft media by American and Native American artists. Eyes for Glass focuses on just one aspect of their collecting activities – works whose common denominator is glass – whether it be blown, cast, cold-worked, sand-cast, engraved, fused, slumped, carved, lamp-worked, painted or in combination with non-glass materials.
Artists included in the exhibition are: Sean Albert, Kenojuak Ashevak, Jane Beebe, Lisbeth Biger, Sonja Blomdahl, Curtis Brock, Frederick Carder, Dale Chihuly, Joe David, Laura de Santillana, Steven DeVries, Fritz Driesbach, Tom Farbanish, Gisele et Regis Fievet, Fabio Fornasier, Kyohei Fujita, Saburo Funakoshi, Ann Gardner, Mitchell Gaudet, Katherine Gray, Gregory Grenon, Susan Holland Reed, James Houston, Clarissa Hudson, Ulrica Hydman-Vallien, Ryosuke Kinoshita, Joey Kirkpatrick, Sabrina Knowles, David Leight, Walter Lieberman, Flora Mace, Joanna Manousis, Dante Marioni, Paul Marioni, Massimo Micheluzzi, Ohotaq Mikkigak, Yasuko Miyazaki, Tobias Mohl, Benjamin Moore, William Morris, Mel Munsen, Felice Nittolo, Marvin Oliver, Allan Packer, Jackie Pancari, Danny Perkins, Shaun Peterson, Susan Point, Anni Pootoogook, Jill Reynolds, Richard Royal, Ginny Ruffner, Judith Schaechter, Preston Singletary, David Schwartz, Therman Statom, Susan Stinsmuehlen-Amend, Lino Tagliapietra, Cappy Thompson, Cesare Toffolo Rossit, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Veruska Vagen, Bertil Vallien, Laura Ward, Dick Weiss, Sally Worcester, Willian Worcester, Hiroshi Yamano, Mark Zirpel and Toots Zinsky."
