Full Description
The "Glass Flower" in the former Palast der Republik in Berlin is probably the best-known work of glass art from Magdeburg. The artists' association "Glasgestaltung (Glass design) Magdeburg", which was active after the end of the Second World War until 2000, was involved in prominent building projects throughout the GDR with art in architecture. The closure of the workshops marked the end of a phase in which artistic glass design in Magdeburg had a supra-regional significance.
The city of Magdeburg has been researching and publishing its architectural-historical inventory and holdings of architecture-related art for decades. This publication traces the history and significance of stained glass, with a special focus on the state capital, introduces important glass artists and glass workshops, and offers a fresh view of fascinating, colourful works. The outcome is a reference work focused on stained glass and the history of art in Magdeburg, which will be a valuable aid not only for the preservation of historical monuments.
