This installation, in the Museum's American art galleries on our second floor, brings one of Wright's famous "Tree of Life" windows to Cornell. On loan from the Darwin D. Martin House, an important 1905 Wright house in Buffalo, this window is presented in tandem with the Museum's own art glass casements from the Martin House. This pairing of art glass panels designed for different areas of the house shows how Wright redefined the boundary between interior and exterior space and explores Wright's revolutionary use of color and light in architecture. The Johnson Museum installation and the accompanying materials were made possible by a generous contribution from Bill Cooke Chevrolet-Cadillac, Inc., and Bill Cooke Imports, Inc., of Ithaca.
