Seth Randal: Myth and Majesty

University of Washington Press, 2002. Hardcover. Very Good with hint of rubbing to dark glossy jacket.

From Publisher:

Seth Randal is an American artist internationally recognized for his bold, vibrantly hued sculptural works in glass.

Over the course of more than two decades he has developed a distinctive visual language based on the vessel form. He has infused elements derived from classical aesthetics with personal inspiration drawn from cultures around the globe and throughout the history of art. His intensive study of the varied technology of glassmaking has allowed him to adapt the rigorous lost wax procedure and the pate de verre technique to the creation of cast-glass sculptural series possessing stylistic resonance as well as inner affinities with the Art Nouveau movement, Greco-Roman culture, and Egyptian mythology. This volume intimately follows Randal's journey of discovery. The detailed text and stunning full-color photographs offer the reader an illuminating view of his artistic process as he taps ever-new sources of imagination and accepts the challenges of their design and execution.

Jo Lauria is curator of decorative arts at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
