Author Julie L. Sloan examines how patterned glass negotiates the boundaries of interior space and exterior view and traces the evolution of Wright's conception of architectural form as it is revealed in the development of these "light screens." |
The two volumes are the result of eighteen years of research by glass scholar and conservator Julie L. Sloan supported by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Graham Foundation for Research in the Fine Arts. With the publication of these companion volumes this important body of knowledge about Wright's work in glass will be available for scholars and students, as well as for all those who admire and appreciate modern architecture. |
