Description

The artist's designs recall the elaborately decorated Beaux-Arts interior of Shea's Victoria Theatre, which stood on this site from 1910 to 1956. Internationally renowned glass studio Mayer of Munich fabricated the 420 square feet of hand-painted float glass in three different areas on the property. A feat of engineering, the complex framing systems hold three layers of float glass arranged 4 inches apart in depth, the first of their kind constructed on this scale. Great Gulf commissioned this series of public art features for their new condominium development.
