The Fragile Thoughts installation is on view through Monday, January 31, 2019

Judson Studios cordially invites you to a historical perspective on early 20th century public health and Elizabeth Milbank Anderson. Ms. Anderson is the subject of Fragile Thoughts, the latest installation work by artist, Jane Brucker. The piece is a collaboration with Judson Studios, the oldest family-run stained glass workshop in America.

Physiologist and historian of medicine, Jeremy Wasser, PhD will introduce viewers to the health concerns of Milbank’s day and her philanthropic efforts that extend into the 21st century. Brucker’s newest work, which consists of seven antique chairs embedded with stained glass, can be viewed through January in the Judson Gallery. The chairs are arranged to reflect a “council circle,” evoking discussions of concern, shared wisdom and public value.

Thank you to Pasadena Art Alliance and Loyola Marymount University for project grants that allowed Judson Studios to invite Brucker to create and learn alongside its master craftspersons.
