The survival of craft traditions in modern Hungarian glass art The survival of craft traditions, forms and techniques in contemporary Hungarian glass art is illustrated through various creations. These traditions and techniques spanned successive periods of art history and can look back on a long past in the history of glass art. The study focuses on the vibrant creations of three Hungarian glass artists, which are compared with various historical pieces to illustrate the continuity in the working of glass. Márton Horváth taught the art of blown glass for many decades. He first created jewellery from glass beads and later began making freeblown vessels. His creations are characterised by trailed decoration and iridescence. His ties with traditional glass art are reflected in his aspersorium. Gergely Pattantyús was greatly influenced by the simple elegance of the forms and proportions of peasant glasses. His creations range from mould-blown cups, flasks and decanters to kuttroIf bottles and römers. Between 1999 and 2002, he created an outstanding piece of art, Hommage r Rippl-Rónai

, based on the painter's sketches. Péter Borkovics has experimented with the properties of molten glass and has since 1998 created several diatreta compositions. Commissioned by the Hungarian National Museum, he successfully reconstructed the diatreta glass technique of classical antiquity and made an authentic and reliable copy of the diatreta from Szekszárd.
