Thus it was that in 1987, when glass art was still totally unknown in Taiwan, Wang took himself off to Detroit in the US to study glassmaking, and then traveled to see major glass museums in the US, Germany, Italy and Czechoslovakia. "That was when I began thinking about setting up a museum of glass in Taiwan," says Wang.
於是在國內藝術玻璃創作還是一片空白的一九八七年，他毅然放下一切，隻身到美國底特律創意學院學習玻璃創作，並跑遍美國，及歐洲的德國、義大利、捷克等重要玻璃重鎮參訪當地的玻璃博物館，「當時我就期許能在台灣建立一座玻璃博物館」，王俠軍表示。
