CHIHULY PUTTI
Product Description
The story of the Putti sculptures remains a mystery to many, as the series itself has been viewed primarily through only a few films and publications – and it’s certainly seen as one of Chihuly’s more peculiar, perhaps mischievous series. This edition is illustrated throughout with handsome full-color images selected by the artist, representing a wide range of these projects.
Baskets, Putti, and Chandeliers & Towers are the first three books in a collectable set of ten. Specific only to one series, these titles chronicle the renowned artist's glass sculptures. Certainly compact in appearance but not in content, each book within the collection boasts 112 pages comprised of images reflective of the series after which they are named. View the making of a Chandelier, learn about the mischievous Putti, and become immersed in the classic beauty of the Baskets.
A companion DVD accompanies each book that includes artist commentary on the history of each series, all approximately 15 minutes in running time.
Essays by Davira Taragin, formerly the Director of Exhibitions, Racine Art Museum; Curator, The Detroit Institute of the Arts, Toledo Museum of Art.
