Dominick Labino (1910-1987)
Inventor and Glass Technologist
Dominick Labino started his career as an instrument maker for the Bacharach
Instrument Company in Pittsburgh, and then he obtained a job with Owens-Illinois Glass Company, where his lifelong passion for glass began.
When he was in charge at the Owens-Illinois Glass Company milk-bottle plant, he set up small laboratories to formulate new glass batches and
to fabricate small glass objects. In 1940s, Mr. Labino’s predecessor, Ben Alderson, taught him how to blow glass. He continued his
career in the glass industry and joined Glass Fibers, Inc., which subsequently became L.O.F. Glass Fibers, which he held the positions of
Vice President and Director of Research. The company then became Johns-Manville Fiber Glass, where he served as Vice-President and
Director of Research and Development until his retirement in 1965, but he remained affiliated as a research consultant.
A talented researcher and inventor, Mr. Labino holds sixty patents in the U.S. and hundreds in foreign countries. He worked as a technical
and scientific consultant to various glass companies and to several federal agencies, including the National Space Agency. He invented
pure silica fiber which was used in insulating tiles covering the space shuttle Columbia and the Apollo, Mercury, and Gemini spacecraft.
Also, three of his glass fiber developments have served as insulation against the extreme temperatures encountered by Apollo Time Capsules.
He also developed new glass studio inventions which remain commonplace, such as the top burner furnace (which eliminated the need for
a second glory hole), the creation of insulation materials that made annealing ovens more efficient, and his triple-hinged furnace door.
In 1963, Labino constructed a glass studio, which housed his new designs on his farm in Grand Rapids, Ohio. Only two years later, he had
requested early retirement at the age of 54 to devote his full time to glass craftsmanship.
Labino’s technical training facilitated his work as a glass innovator. The unique combination of scientific knowledge and
aesthetic inventiveness give the artist the ability to create extraordinary shapes, which give flashing light to his pieces, the range of
intensities of color in his fused multicolored forms, often contained in clear glass casing, and varied surface qualities which create
broken reflective lights or light-absorbing matte textures. Although an innovator in form, Labino is probably best known for his use
of color.
Labino achieved extraordinary color,
color-relationship and subtle variation of tones in his pieces. Few artists in the field are able to combine colors in the molten
state because different colors react differently in the furnace in accordance with minor changes in temperature and oxygen often causing
breakage. Despite the difficulty, Labino felt that “Color is one of the most important aspects of visual art…”
Labino formulated his own color compositions from raw materials, which resulted in unusual and exciting effects. With his knowledge of the
chemistry of glass, he was able to create colors which were uniquely his own.
His stunning use of color is evident in all his
glass work, such examples include “Emergence” and “Vitrana.” The clear glass sculpture “Emergence”
features three “Break Through” ascending air trap funnels each emerging into a successively larger funnel. The emerging
funnel shaped inclusions are covered in a thin micro gold veiling. The sculpture on appearance possesses a soft gold color until
infused with light, at which time it changes to a vibrant red. Labino created the glass mural “Vitrana” for the Toledo
Museum of Art in 1969. To create the piece Labino used an entirely new technique of casting molten glass into rectangular molds,
inlaying different colors of glass free hand during the casting process to achieve the unique effects of each panel. Subsequently,
Labino created other glass mural for Columbus (Ohio) Gallery of Fine Arts (1971) and for the Riverside Hospital (1973). Not only did
Labino create unique works of art in his studio, but his work gave rise to The Studio Glass Movement.
In 1962, shortly before he constructed his glass studio, Labino and Harvey Littleton conducted workshops at the Toledo Art Museum, in hope
that they would transform glass making from an industrial medium to a medium for art. Their collaboration resulted in practices and
technologies that made it possible for individual artists to work with glass in small, non-industrial studios, thus encouraging unique
pieces to be created in a personal studio rather than factory manufactured glass. Because of this Labino is considered one of the
fore-fathers of the Studio Glass Movement. In 1968, Labino published his book, Visual Art in Glass which presented in word
and illustration the development of glass as a medium for visual art. Because of his influential role in the movement, his work has been
included in most historic Studio Glass exhibitions. Some of his one man shows include the Corning Museum’s Dominick Labino—A
Retrospective Exhibition, 1964-1969 and Dominick Labino, Decade of Glass Craftsmanship, 1964-1974. Furthermore, Labino’s work is
featured in collections of over sixty museums worldwide.
Because of
Labino’s influential work, he has received numerous awards and honors including being named honorary curator of the Toledo Museum of
Art (1969). He also was awarded an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from BGSU (1970), the first Ohio Arts Council Award, and the Steuben
Phoenix Award (1977), which is recognized as the most prestigious honor in the industry. Furthermore, Labino served as President of the
Toledo Federation of Art Societies, the Craft Club of Toledo, the Glass Collector’s Club of Toledo, and the Maumee Kiwanis Club. In
addition, Labino was named a Fellow of the American Ceramic Society (1973). He was also a member of the American Ceramic Society,
Society of Glass Technology (England), Toledo Technical Society, American Crafts Council, World Crafts Council, Ohio Designer-Craftsmen,
Archaeological Institutes of America, and the Tile Club of Toledo. He has also been included in Who’s Who in Ohio; Men
of Science, and Who’s Who in American Art.
As
well as being an accomplished scientist and artist, Labino has also published numerous articles along with his book, Visual Art in Glass.
Labino mainly wrote articles for technical publications but one of his best known articles was published by the Corning Museum of Glass in
its “Journal of Glass Studies” in 1966. The article featured glassmaking in the ancient world, which intrigued Labino.
Particularily Labino was fascinated with the many surviving examples of ancient glass which were not technically understood. He
questioned how Egyptians could make fabricated core-formed glass bottles with the technology available. Thus in his article, Labino
attempted to prove that the Egyptians of the 18th Dynasty (1500 B.C.) made hollow vessels on a sand core. As a scientist, Labino felt
impelled to investigate such mysteries in order to fully understand the medium of glass and transform it into art.
Although he was a respected and revered artist, Labino’s views contrasted with many other artists, such as his friend Harvey
Littleton. Labino felt that understanding the fabrication process was imperative to making “glass art.” While many
artists felt that glass should be created free form without any constraints. Labino observed, “If you want to make glass right
it is very complicated, but many so-called artists do not want to be bothered by technology.” In fact Labino felt an
understanding of glass promoted creativity, “It takes years of study and experience to make good glass, but the exciting results which
can be attained are well worth the effort necessary to achieve them.”
In 1987, Dominick Labino died in his home in Grand Rapids at the age of 76.

Scope and Content Note
This collection mainly consists of Dominick Labino’s technical library but also contains papers, photographs, and artifacts. His papers
are divided into six series: S1 Biographical, S2 Artist Files, S3 Johns Manville Papers, S4 Correspondence, S5 Miscellaneous, and S6
Research Files. All materials in series are arranged alphabetically by subject.
The Biographical materials contain newspaper
clippings featuring Labino, awards and honors earned by Labino, art exhibitions brochures which also featured Labino. His artist files
contain various information related to his career as an artist, including blueprints, notes, and sketches of some of his art projects.
This series also contains Labino’s technical notes and sketches which are somewhat difficult to decipher, if one is not familiar with
chemicals involved in glass making but may offer insight into Labino’s methods and artistry. The Johns Manville papers include
documents from Labino’s career as director of research and development, including his research and correspondence for his work for the
Atomic Energy Commission. The Correspondence series consists of various general correspondences. The Miscellaneous series contains a
variety of items such as various companies’ annual reports. The Research Files series contains numerous journal clippings and
magazine clippings arranged alphabetically by topic.
The bulk of the collection is Dominick Labino’s Technical Library S7,
which contains various volumes of scientific journals, magazines, and books mostly related to glass. Labino fused his scientific
knowledge of the chemistry and composition of glass to create unique glass art, therefore his technical library and research was very
important to his career as an artist.
This collection also contains photographs, slides, and negatives in the seventh series. The
series has a few photographs of Labino in his workshop and many slides of various pieces created by Labino.
The Artifacts
included in this collection are a two hollow glass blocks, a small bag of glass fibers, a wooden Johns-Manville sign, a 3-ply laminate of
