Dutch artist Stefan Glerum
has an illustration style that lends perfectly to stained glass, his
latest venture. In his traditional artwork, we can see the influence of
Art Deco and Japanese woodblock prints, with figures drawn in bold lines
against vibrantly colored backgrounds with unusual angles of view. His
simple and flat way of drawing is also reminiscent of Bauhaus, Italian
Futurism and Russian Constructivism, which he credits as his
inspiration. Glerum most recently applied his design sensibility to the
Polderweg in Amsterdam, a housing complex of 72 apartments and
impressive 60 foot cathedral-high stained glass windows.See more on Hi-Fructose.
