About This Item
Tonearm/Lawrence Publication, 2007. Hardback. Like New. Judith Schaecter's stained glass narratives are a paradoxical assemblage of medieval depictions, mediated by contemporary tales of human failings. Her s is a demented carnival world, made claustrophobic by dizzying arrays of t exture, obsessive detail and intense color. In a field much better known fo r abstraction, her imagery relies on painstaking draftsmanship and the figu re. Indeed, the artist has given new meaning to the stained glass genre pre cisely by adopting its historical narrative function. The artist balances t he methods of painting on glass that harken back to the middle ages with an unmistakably contemporary style aligned with those of underground comics a nd political artists.
