Erik Hoglund was one of the great innovators in Swedish glass. I was fortunate to meet this man and talk with him on many occasions. He had various illnesses which would have destroyed an ordinary man but he continued to create in glass and paint in his later years. Never heard him complain about anything. Always a positive attitude about life.
There are several books out about him but they are in
Swedish.
His daughter Erika Hoglund is a designer at Mäleräs
Glass Works in Sweden where she has applied a new technique to cast glass. Very popular in the United
States.
