Michael Glancy

[2] Glancy was a member of the adjunct Faculty and a Senior Critic in the Jewelry & Metalsmithing Department at the Rhode Island School of Design from 1982 until his death in 2020, where he taught the technique of electroforming.

In 2003 Glancy was included in the exhibition "Fire and Form," curated by William Warmus for the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach.

In the book accompanying the show, Warmus wrote: "Michael Glancy magnifies nature in order to reveal its underlying structure...the flat glass panels that form sculptural bases for his artworks...unfold into and inspire the vessels that sit astride them.

"[citation needed] Glancy passed away on August 29, 2020 at his summer home in Harwich Port, Massachusetts after a battle with lung cancer.

His work was acquired for the exhibit One of a Kind: The Studio Craft Movement at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, on display in 2006 – 2007.
