Earlier this summer I made a special trip to the Montréal Fine Arts Museum to see an exhibit by Dale Chihuly, "Mille Fiori". It was fantastic and truly a feast for the eyes. This dazzling exhibit is on display from June 8 to October 20, 2013 and is not-to-be-missed!
Who is Chihuly? Born in Tacoma in 1941, Dale Chihuly is regarded as the "Tiffany" of our day
and has been exploring the plastic potential of blown glass for over
fifty years. With fire, gravity, breath and centrifugal force, this
accomplished master plays with colours, reflections and organic forms,
using repetition, accumulation and layering arrangements of modular and
singular elements to create unparalleled rhythms and visual effects. (Quoted from the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts exhibit page for the Chihuly exhibit: http://www.breathtaking.ca/)
