Dale Chihuly Art Glass
Dale Chihuly is highly respected the world over for his amazing artistic skill and unique creative vision. His revolutionary team based approach to the art glass manufacturing process has resulted in some of the world's most exquisite blown glass creations.
Dale Chihuly began studying glassblowing in the mid 1960's and by 1967 he was creating room-sized installations of art glass sculpture. He is largely responsible for establishing the blown glass art form as an accepted form of installation art as well as environmental art.
After losing the vision in his left eye in a 1976 auto accident, Dale gave up his duties as chief glassblower at his studio. Because of the loss of depth perception he could no longer perform the art of glass blowing. He began to direct other glassblowers who created art glass sculptures according to his exact instructions.
Dale Chihuly's studio is famous not only for their beautiful sculptures and baskets but their massive and absolutely dazzling chandeliers as well. A stunning example can be seen in the photo to the right. Many of Dale Chihuly's complex multi-piece glass sculptures and chandeliers have been exhibited in museums worldwide to great public acclaim. Dale Chihuly is in truly rare company as he is one of only three living American artists that have had a solo exhibition at the Louvre in Paris.
