“Electric Garden of Unearthly Delights” (through June 1) showcases “luminous glass” by Mundy Hepburn, who works with the same scientific principles used in television and fluorescent light to create art. He fills blown-glass forms with gas mixtures such as helium, neon, argon, krypton and xenon, then activates it all with high-frequency static electricity. The result is described as “a kaleidoscope of swirling patterns of multicolored light.” Connecticut native Mundy’s “moving, living art” has been exhibited in over 30 installations.

“Fritz Glass” (through Oct. 31) highlights the work of featured artist Fritz Lauenstein, who, after studying glass-blowing in Maine and Vermont, set up his studio in Dennis in 1990. He creates both functional and decorative glass, including marbles, paperweights, perfume bottles, jewelry, vases and bowls. His work has been shown and sold in museums and over 200 galleries.
