A ONE-OF-A-KIND EXHIBITION OF ROMAN AND WILLIAMSÂ GUILD LIGHTS, FEATURING 100 ORIGINAL DESIGNS BYÂ ROBIN STANDEFER AND STEPHEN ALESCH, INCLUDING 12 NEW INTRODUCTIONS TO THE GUILD LIGHTING FAMILY TREE.
Hung at varying heights from the 30-foot-high ceiling, the lights appeared to comprise a singular, starrynight sky — a incandescent showcase of craftsmanship and artistry increasingly at risk in today's always-on mechanized world.
The form and make of each light was further heightened by the exhibition’s unmistakable Tribeca location: the historic New York Mercantile Exchange, completed in 1886 and designed by Thomas R. Jackson, who also designed the Guild’s Howard Street address.
