DESCRIPTION:The Adele and Leonard Leight Series: Art\\, Design and Innova
 tion Lecture series\\nFree\\, registration required\\nFeaturing: Lindsy P
 arrott\\, Director of the Neustadt Collection of Tiffany\\nTiffany Lamps:
  Innovation\\, Desire\\, and Imitation\\nREGISTER\\nAmerican artist Louis
  C. Tiffany’s colorful lamps debuted in 1898 and were an immediate sens
 ation: the artistic glass shades and elaborate bronze bases elevated thes
 e lighting fixtures to illuminated works of art. This lecture will trace 
 the rise\\, fall\\, and revival of public interest in Tiffany lamps acros
 s the 20th century and consider the reproductions and forgeries that spra
 ng up as the value of the lamps increased. It’s a fascinating story of 
 innovation\\, desire\\, and imitation that casts a new light on these bel
 oved lamps.\\nAbout Lindsy R. Parrott:\\nLindsy R. Parrott is the Executi
