From the resplendent towers in
Chihuly in the Light of Jerusalem 2000 to the overhead sculpture made of more than two thousand handblown forms in the lobby of the Bellagio Resort in Las Vegas, the audacity and inventiveness of Dale Chihuly's vision come across on every page of this 348-page volume. A splendid companion to
Chihuly, which offers a general overview, this new book, with its focus on his most imposing creations and its essays by
Barbara Rose and
Dale M. Lanzone, will delight all art lovers, collectors, curators, and artists.
Concurrent with the release of
Chihuly Projects, the
Installations section of the Chihuly web site has been improved and expanded. Nearly 30 major permanent and temporary installations are featured in detail, with multiple photos of each. Most also feature statements by Dale Chihuly. Be sure to visit this new section, which will be updated as new installations are created.
There is also a wonderful collection of
postcards created from the images in this book.
