I am excited to be organizing a special docent tour of the Jeanne and Irving Mathews Collection of Art Glass at the McNay Museum, on hehalf of the San Antonio Glass Art Guild (SAGAG).-
The Jeanne and Irving Mathews Collection of Art Glass, was assembled by Mrs. Mathews with her husband, Irving, who passed away in 1993. Focused on the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods in France, the exhibit includes work from Daum Frères and Emile Gallé to René Lalique, as well as rare works by Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, François Decorchement, and Jacques Gruber. This first showing of art glass from the Mathews Collection appears in specially designed cases, ideal for small sculpture and decorative arts, on the Garden Level of the Stieren Center for Exhibitions.
