‘LIFE AND ART THROUGH STAINED GLASS’ examines the artistic career of architect, painter, designer and stained glass innovator Roman Halter.

Halter is best known and remembered as a survivor of the Holocaust (the Shoah) who channelled his relentless energy to ensure that young people, regardless of background, recognised and understood the extent of the evil and genocide of the past and the frightening but persistent reality of the potential for repetition.

The exhibition, featuring over 70 works, includes examples of his stained glass and preparatory ‘cartoons’, revealing that Halter used his architectural skills and the intricacies of stained glass as the foundation and structure for his paintings and drawings.
