Product Description
Chihuly at the Salk documents Dale Chihuly's exhibition at the world-famous Salk Institute for Biological Studies on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary (1960-2010). Dr. Jonas Salk believed that art and science go hand in hand, so the Salk Institute invited Chihuly to create an installation at its campus in La Jolla, California.
The institute overlooks the Pacific Ocean and embodies the collective imagination of Dr. Jonas Salk and architect Louis Kahn. Chihuly, taking his cue from the Salk's dramatic architecture, lighting, and scale, selected a number of vibrant sculptures, including The Sun and Black Niijima Floats. The exhibition was the impetus for a wonderful gathering of community, as the Salk's faculty and staff joined the general public to enjoy Chihuly at the Salk
