Chihuly Garden Installations by Dale Chihuly (Author), Mark McDonnell (Foreword), David Ebony (Contributor), Tim Richardson (Contributor). The greatest residing artist in the medium of glass, Dale Chihuly has long been fascinated by the colors and forms of nature. Over the years, his work has change into more and more open, utilizing varieties that present a robust relationship to the structure of natural shapes. Here, lush illustrations showcase Chihuly’s unique glass sculptures positioned among the vegetation, flowers, and landscapes of some of the world’s finest gardens and conservatories, from St. Louis to Phoenix to Kew. Tracing the connection between Chihuly’s art and botanical life, Chihuly Garden Installations exhibits how the change between art and nature can shift from the harmonious and tranquil to gorgeous juxtapositions of scale and color.

This is an absolutely stunning book. The pictures present gorgeous, colourful displays of Dale Chihuly's Glass installations at many well-known Gardens around the states.


I dwell outside of Atlanta and saw the Atlanta Botanical Garden installation. It was great! This e-book is absolutly beautiful, the pictures is top quality the Glass is beautiful and the gardens wonderful. There is no such thing as a one like Chihuly, he's a one in all a kind artist and his work is the best. I highly suggest this guide it is the finest Espresso Desk e-book I've ever seen. Get it you will love it.

I discover it attention-grabbing that Chihuly's artwork cannot really be appreciated in a widepsread manner without really spectacular images OF his artworks. If you are lucky sufficient to see considered one of his creations in person or visit his 1 "retail" museum/ shop in Florida (or now his very personal glass home in Seattle) then you definitely notice how laborious it's to capture his totally distinctive visions with a camera. This guide is just about excellent on this regard. You'll be able to see his intentions & get an excellent feeling for his inventive process & the skill, time, energy, genius and wit that his exhibitions require. I might like to chop up the pages & display them as posters..Mmmmm, kinda expensive & I don;t imagine in destroying books however it is tempting. I have a poster of his --the extra unique prints and so on are out of my worth range--but I can afford & enjoy the books of his works. Additionally his calendars. I've other books of his but this one is just wonderful -- vibrant, vivid colors & lush virtually three-D effects. Amazon additionally gave me an ideal value !
