About the book

"For more than sixty years, June Schwarcz (1918-2015) advanced the art of enameling--fusing glass to metal through a high-temperature firing process--while creating works that combine rich textures and luminous color. Her technical experiments earned her national awards and generations of followers. June Schwarcz: Invention & Variation celebrates this pioneering artist with fifty-nine full-color plates representing a wide selection of her work, from traditional vessels and boxes to wall-mounted panels and modernist sculpture. An essay by Bernard N. Jazzar and Harold B. Nelson explores her groundbreaking methods and varied sources--including Japanese calligraphy, ancient Peruvian textiles, European painting and sculpture, Islamic architecture, and high fashion."--Publisher's description.
