Stained glass artist tells the story how SW bought one of her works

Judith Schaecter is a world renowned stained glass artist 


PHAWKER: Do you have any famous clients we should know about?

JUDITH SCHAECHTER: Not really [laughs]. I sold one to the lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots, but that was a long time ago.

PHAWKER: Scott Weiland?

JUDITH SCHAECHTER: [laughs] Yeah.

PHAWKER: How did that come about?

JUDITH SCHAECHTER: I had a show at an art gallery in L.A. in 1990, in fact I just had another one last year, but I showed stained glass there in 1990, and it was really interesting. Nothing really happened at the show. I think I sold maybe one piece, but it led to very strange long term fallout with the manager for Stone Temple Pilots who saw the show. Apparently when they came through Philly, Scott Weiland wanted to buy his wife to be, his now ex-wife, a wedding gift and he bought her one of my windows and there you go. I don’t know what ever happened to it.

PHAWKER: Did he come to your house?

JUDITH SCHAECHTER: He came to my studio with the drummer. And they signed a copy of their record Purple, the one that has “Vasoline” on it. The drummer wrote “I love art; beer makes me fart.” [laughs] What I was most excited about was that the Meat Puppets were opening for them here in Philly so I got to hang out with the Meat Puppets backstage!

PHAWKER: Up On The Sun, baby.

JUDITH SCHAECHTER: [laughs] There you go. But this was years ago, like 1993 or something.

Generally when you transcript an interview or anything, if the person don't remember, don't know or don't mention someone's name, you write it anyways, like it was done with "laughs".

Poor Eric.

Not shocking though...the other three have always tended to get pushed in the background.

Well, just to be fair, she initially refers to Scott as "the lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots".  It's the interviewer that brings up his name.

cool read. What she does used to be my profession once (although I was mostly repairing stained glass church windows..) but she truely turned it into an art form. No wonder Scott bought one, they are beautiful.
