Download or read book Dale Chihuly A Celebration written by and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dale Chihuly, the hugely popular artist who works in glass, celebrates his 70th birthday in 2011. Tacoma Art Museum, in his hometown, owns more than 150 examples of his work and is mounting an exhibition in his honor. Both this book and the exhibition showcase Chihuly's enduring interest in the arts and natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest, which are a major influence on his work. For the first time, Dale Chihuly: A Celebration focuses on the importance of these influences. From Native American baskets to wool trade blankets, the gritty Tacoma of the 1960s, and Puget Sound, this exhibition and book follow Chihuly's development and accomplishments and how he grew and evolved while maintaining close ties to Tacoma. The essay by curator Rock Hushka traces Chihuly's creative process and the ways in which his abiding interest in the American Northwest enriches his work. Praise for Dale Chihuly: A Celebration: "This intimate, thoughtful celebration highlights the influences of nature and nurture on a unique talent." -Publishers Weekly Also Available: Chihuly 2018 Wall Calendar (ISBN: 978-1-4197-2599-9), Chihuly 2018 Weekly Planner (ISBN: 978-1-4197-2598-2), Chihuly 2019 Wall Calendar (ISBN: 978-1-4197-3093-1), Chihuly 2019 Weekly Planner (Engagement Calendar) (ISBN: 978-1-4197-3094-8)

Download or read book Chihuly Bellagio written by Dale Chihuly and published by Chihuly Workshop. This book was released on 1999 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dale Chihuly's largest installation to date comes to life in this book which showcases the qualities his work is most known for: grandness of scale, vividness of colour, and scope of imagination. This gorgeous volume features 65 pages of full-colour photographic documentation of the commissioned sculpture, 'Fiori di Como' at the Bellagio resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The more than 40,000 pound glass artwork hangs overhead in the hotel's main lobby from an intricate armature of metal 'branches'. The book displays in vivid detail the colourful garden of glass and its 2,000 pieces as well as reproductions of working faxes and fax drawings from Chihuly to Steve Wynn during the conceptual development of the project. The highly sculptural style of the piece and the broad range of colours make it a departure from anything Chihuly has done before. As Chihuly himself has said, Everything about the 'Fiori di Como' was new -- the scale, the armature, and the glass.. This beautiful clothbound book provides image after image of the creative process and the final result of this monumental sculpture.
