McElheny relates to objects of mid-century design, objects that harbor the visionary futures of past eras but that also reveal the supposedly autonomous realms of art and industrial design. His works allegorize the breakdown of Modernism's linear notion of history to create visual analogues of its fragmentation" Branden W. Joseph, Parkett no. 86, 2009.

History Modernized fifteen glass objects, fifteen photographs and shelves dimensions variable Executed in 1998. PROVENANCE Donald Young Gallery, Chicago EXHIBITION Boston, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Josiah McElheny, January-April 1999, p. 33 (illustrated) NOTES Apprenticed to various Master glassblowers in Europe, Scandinavia and the US over five years, McElheny's preoccupation is a blend of history, both fact and fiction, and glass. Evolving from historical anecdotes about a particular practice or scenario which relate to glass or to its origins, these anecdotes which are sometimes historically accurate and sometimes in whole or in part fictional, form templates for his beautifully blown artworks. "It is the great virtue of Josiah McElheny's art that it dwells within and speculates relentlessly upon the eternal circularity of glass as object and idea - as the very emblem of human civilization in its stubborn hardness, its fictional transparency, and its extreme fragility" (Dave Hickey, "Hearts of Glass," in Josiah McElheny, Boston, 1998). Apprenticed to various Master glassblowers in Europe, Scandinavia and the US over five years, McElheny's preoccupation is a blend of history, both fact and fiction, and glass. Evolving from historical anecdotes about a particular practice or scenario which relate to glass or to its origins, these anecdotes which are sometimes historically accurate and sometimes in whole or in part fictional, form templates for his beautifully blown artworks.
