A Trip to the New York Botanical Garden: Chihuly Exhibition

[dewdrop]

Who is Chihuly?

Dale Chihuly is an American glass artist. He is famous for his site-specific installations in public spaces and exhibitions in museums and gardens around the world.

I made this trip to the New York Botanical Gardens mainly to enjoy the Chihuly exhibition. I've seen some of his breathtaking works before at a casino, but not his whole collection like this.

Thanks for your time, my friends.
Have a great day.

The glass work reminds me of the ceiling of the Belagio in Las Vegas, very similar work, vibrant colors.

[dewdrop]

I think it's from the same artist. He has a factory and lots of people working for him.

This artist is a genius! He treated glass just like handling thin paper. He could even paint inside the glass texture! The design conception and execution of blowing the glass into all the different shapes are just mind boggling!

This glass exhibition is unique. Wonderful art exhibition!!
Thank you for the excellent work.

[dewdrop]

Hey! Another sweet comment :)! He has spent 40 years doing this so he's the master :D. Thanks for enjoying it, my friend :).
