Charlie Lawrence
Charles Ziegler (CZ) Lawrence has
devoted his life to the craft of stained
glass window-making. Beginning in 1956,
CZ embarked on a rigorous, formal
apprenticeship to the German master
craftsman Rudolph H. Buenz. He is one of
the few remaining American stained glass
artisans trained in the traditional
method.
CZ Lawrence's many commissions over the
last four decades have established him
as a true master of American stained
glass. Reknowned for both abstract and
representational work, Lawrence's skill
and genius are sought for both secular
and religious venues. Working with
individuals, architects or committees,
Lawrence will take a concept from design
through fabrication and installation.
His commissions and collaborations have
included: The National Catherdral,
Washington, D.C.; The Washington Temple
of the Latter Day Saints, Washington,
D.C.; The Burlington Bridge Commission,
Burlington County, NJ; Gore (Gore-Tex)
Manufacturing Co., Cherry Hill, MD;
University of Rochester, Rochester, NY;
Penn State University, St. Cyril's
Catholic Church, Houston, TX;
International Baptist Seminary, The
Prague, Czhech Republic; The Lutheran
Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, PA
and hundreds of other works.
