Brian Clarke: A Great Light

Revelations in stained glass from the medium's undisputed master, Brian ClarkeAcross his five-decade career, British artist Brian Clarke (born 1953) has consistently pushed the boundaries of stained glass as a medium, incorporating new technologies to unlock its visual potential. A Great Light crystallizes Clarke's vision for stained glass as fundamentally architectural; his works are the result of a dedicated respect for the buildings they inhabit and the surrounding contexts of his practice. The book offers a view of the profound interaction between space and artwork, with over 130 beautifully reproduced images of 68 different stained glass artworks filling its pages and extending into the gatefolds. A Great Light is a striking catalog that serves as a testament to Clarke's widely regarded status as the most important artist working in stained glass today.
