The Glass House and the surrounding composition of landscape, art and architecture will continue to inspire the lively aesthetic dialogue that was a centerpiece of life for Philip Johnson. The place he called “the diary of an eccentric architect” is now an open book.

Connecticut-based writer Barbara Wysocki specialized in contemporary art during her tenure as a docent at Connecticut’s Wadsworth Atheneum.
