SUMMARY:Pasadena Heritage: Dr. Robert Winter Memorial Lecture and Reception
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, January 13\, 2024 | 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM\nLecture & Reception Tickets: $30 Members / $35 Nonmembers\nVirtual Lecture (Zoom) Tickets: $15 Members / $20 Nonmembers / (Students are free) \nPasadena Heritage presents Dr. Robert Winter Memorial Lecture and Reception with feature speaker\, Ted Ellison\, who will delight guests with his illustrated talk\, From Hand to Hearth: Glass Mosaic from the Prairie School. \nFine craftsman and designer Ted Ellison brings a historical perspective to the introduction of mosaics to the buildings of progressive American architects around the turn of the twentieth century. The Chicago firm Giannini & Hilgart is among those whose works of art stand among the highest achievements of this ancient art form\, yet they remain nearly forgotten in homes across the country. In collaboration with the celebrated architects of their day\, Giannini & Hilgart approached the language of mosaic with fresh experiments in material and decorative design\, exemplified by their installations at the historic Blinn House (the headquarters of Pasadena Heritage). In light of his study of leaded glass and mosaic fireplaces nationwide\, Ted will also share his observations on the decorative furnishings of this Pasadena landmark. This lecture is a rare chance to view exquisitely photographed interiors and newly discovered installations from around the country. \nYou are invited to join us in person or virtually for this special program! The lecture will be livestreamed via Zoom and a recording will be made available to ticket holders shortly after the event. Free admission to the Zoom lecture will be made available to students upon request. Current students may email Kristen Norton at knorton@pasadenaheritage.org to receive the Zoom connection info. \nFor those joining us in person\, we will host a cocktail reception following the lecture to toast the late Dr. Robert Winter. Martinis (Dr. Winter’s cocktail of choice) and light hors d’oeuvres will be served from 5:00 to 6:30 PM. \nABOUT OUR SPEAKER \nTed Ellison\, founder of Theodore Ellison Designs\, studied art and apprenticed in a glass studio before starting his leaded glass and mosaic company in 1998. Honoring the artistic integrity of the Arts & Crafts tradition he’s created original glass\, mosaic and lighting designs for homes all over the country. His work is based on the firm belief that thoughtfully designed and carefully crafted artworks enhance the lives of those who encounter them. His work has appeared in Fine Homebuilding\, Style 1900 and Old House Journal. He’s written on the history of glass for American Bungalow and presented on the history of American mosaic at the National Arts & Crafts Conference in Asheville\, Historic Seattle\, The Gamble House\, and Chicago’s Driehaus Museum. \nDR. ROBERT WINTER \nDr. Robert Winter was a gift to us and to the cause of historic preservation nationwide – his teaching\, writing\, critical eye and witty commentary still influence what we do and how we look at historic places. He led the way in creating Pasadena’s preservation ordinance and commission and supported us\, educated us and urged us to be a strong voice for the architectural legacy that surrounds us. The first Dr. Robert Winter Memorial Lecture was held during Craftsman Weekend in 2019 after his passing\, and is a lasting tribute to his impact on historic preservation communities both near and far. He would be thrilled to know that Pasadena Heritage now resides in the historic Blinn House designed by Chicago architect George Washington Maher. Celebrate with us as we learn about the stunning mosaic fireplace in the Dr. Robert Winter Lounge of the Blinn House (shown above). \nDonations in support of the program are very welcome. All those who donate to the Dr. Robert Winter lecture will receive a link to view the recording of this year’s Dr. Robert Winter Memorial Lecture.
