Summary
"With color plates, essays, and a detailed conversation with the artist about his process and central artistic influences, A Geometry of Meaning chronicles the evolution of Michael Taylor's art from a ceramicist to glassmaker, from Modernist to Neo-Constructivist, from early biomorphic ceramic forms to his signature geometric fused-glass sculptures that explore color and prismatic light. This comprehensive publication illustrates Taylor's innovations in glass, which have contributed to the medium's rise to prominence as well as helped to shape its future."--BOOK JACKET.
