Dante Marioni knows how to blow glass. In "Dante Marioni: Recent Glass Works," his vases are imbued with rich, striking colors that effortlessly invite light. The elongated pieces brilliantly display the meticulous, incredibly difficult technique of reticello - the Italian name for crisscrossed glass cane work. The stouter pieces are laboriously shaped and reminiscent of tribal sculptures. 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays. Through October 22. Wade Wilson Art, 4411 Montrose. For information, call 713-521-2977 or visit www.wadewilsonart.com. Free.
Tuesdays-Saturdays, 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Starts: Sept. 7. Continues through Oct. 22, 2010
