Beth Lipman is an American artist whose sculptural practice explores aspects of material culture and deep time through still lives, site-specific installations, and photographs. Ephemeral and intricate, the work addresses mortality, materiality, and temporality, critical issues since the inception of the still-life tradition in the 17th century, that continue to be relevant. Lipman is also known for site-responsive installations that activate the specific history of objects, individuals, and institutions.
British artist Brian Clarke is one of the most important artists working in stained glass. Clarke has collaborated with some of the world’s most prominent architects to create stained-glass designs and installations for hundreds of projects worldwide.
