Glasnost - a glass works exhibition in the Library

Glasnost will be on display at the Waranara Library exhibition space from 21 May to 30 June 2026.

The word glasnost has long been associated with ideas of openness and transparency.

This exhibition, curated by Sean Morris, brings together glass works from the Macquarie University Art Collection and features significant artists including Dale Chihuly, Ben Edols and Kathy Elliott, Sam Herman and Jenni Kemarre Martiniello OAM. These works are shown alongside those of leading Sydney‑based glass artists Bronte Cormican-Jones, Mark Eliott, Andrew Lavery, NOT, Robert Wynne and Floria Tosca.
