Room 129: Contemporary Glass

Contemporary Glass, room 129

The Märit Rausing Gallery

The international glass displayed in this gallery is recent work by contemporary artist-makers and designers. To maintain this contemporary character, the displays will change as newer works enter the permanent collections. At times, there may be a temporary exhibition of invited work - either a solo or a thematic show.

Room 129 is on Level 4 of the V&A South Kensington.
