  Artist who spearheaded the studio glass movement in BritainThe glass artist Sam Herman, who has died aged 84, was an important contributor to the British craft renaissance of the 1960s and 70s. Studio ceramics (ceramics designed and made by the same person) had been established as a new art form in Britain since the 20s but it was not until the mid-60s that Herman brought the technology to work with hot glass in studio to the UK from the US, enabling individual creative engagement with this dang
