Mireille Perron  The Anatomy Of A Glass Menagerie: Altaglass

MIREILLE PERRON  THE ANATOMY OF A GLASS MENAGERIE: ALTAGLASS is the slender publication accompanying the exhibition of cyanotypes at Nickle Galleries. Perron’s images register her fascination with the handmade glass animals and other ornaments produced between 1950 and 1988 by the Medicine Hat-based company Altaglass. Her delicate compositions include the ghostly traces of local botanical specimens alongside those of a marvelous menagerie.
