Light Screens- The Leaded Glass Of Frank Lloyd Wright exhibition poster 2003. Rare New exhibition poster from a 2003 exhibition of Frank Lloyd Wright’s famous Leaded Glass. Great for any collector or lover of Frank Lloyd Wright, Architecture and Design. With inexhaustible creativity, Frank Lloyd Wright designed an estimated 4,365 windows for over 160 of his buildings. With this boldly abstract glass, he distanced himself from his contemporaries Louis Comfort Tiffany and John La Farge and invented a fully modern language for ornamental design. Author Julie Sloan identifies three phases in Wright’s evolution toward this exciting idiom. Finally, vanguard European art and architecture helped inspire his most joyous and inventive light screens. In the same years, his windows expanded from the single opening to the casement, the clerestory, and the skylight. These forms and patterns were essential to Wright’s revolutionary vision, for they served his unique conception of fluid interior spaces in dynamic dialogue with exterior views. Including illustrations made especially for this book, Sloan shows how Wright, in her words, expanded the frontiers of stained glass in both its use and its design. Light Screens also uncovers the influences on Wright’s ornament– from Japonisme to Friedrich Froebel’s educational exercises. Size: 18″ x 29″.
