CHIHULY FEAVER

A GREAT PHOTO OF DALE... IN MOTION DANCING WITH ART... A PERFECT OPENING TO A FABULOUS SHOW


ILLUMINATION AND GLASS

A LOOK AT EARLY WORK.... A CLUSTER OF SEA FORMS


A VESSEL OR A VASE, WHAT'S IN A NAME?

THE CLEVER IDEA OF   A GLASS TOWER/ SCULPTURE.... FROM CEILING TO FLOOR, FLOODED WITH LIGHT AND MADE UP OF MULTIPLE GLASS OBJECTS


CLOSE UP OF  A LADYBUG CREATED IN GLASS

THE ARTIST DRAWINGS SHOWS THE FLOW OF  INSPIRATION

SO THE IDEAS ARE NOT BY ACCIDENT, BUT PLANED OUT

VIEW ONE  OF A SPECTACULAR " GLASS CEILING"

NO BARS HELD ON THIS GLASS CEILING-ANOTHER VIEW

THE ENTRANCE INTO A ENCHANTED  INDOOR GARDEN


THE GONDOLAS OF VENICE ARE THE INSIPRATION

NOTE THE MIRROR IMAGE REFLECTION IN THE WATER


CLOSE UP OF THE OBJECTS OF GLASS


POSTER OF THE EVENT IN VENICE

POSTERS OF CHIHULY'S EVENTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD ( DALE IS NOT ONLY A GLASS ARTIST BUT A GRAPHIC ARTIST OF HIS WORK AS WELL)


THE NOTION OF GLASS AS ART IN THE GARDEN  IS A DIMENSION THAT CHIHULY EXPLORES 

INTEGRATING GLASS IN A NATURAL SETTING BRINGS ANOTHER DIMENSION TO THE ART AS SEEN BY THE REFECTION OF THE SPACE NEEDLE AND THE ADMIRER


WOOD, GLASS AND FERNS ALL MARRY WELL IN THIS SETTING OF A GARDEN

REPURPOSING ART FROM ONE SHOW TO A PERMANENT EXHIBIT IS SHOW IN THIS PHOTO
NOTHING BEATS SEEING THE "REAL THING" BUT FOR MY ARMCHAIR TRAVELERS I HOPE THIS TRAVELOG BROUGHT YOU HAPPINESS AND EXUBERANCE FOR THE DAY.... TILL WE MEET AGAIN ENJOY

  1. It is amazing in person. And if you are ever in Las Vegas, the ceiling of his work in the Bellagio Hotel's lobby is outstanding.
