DeYoung Museum: Chihuly

| 0 Comments
On Friday, I went to the members-only viewing of the Chihuly exhibit; while it was certainly more crowded than usual in the DeYoung, it's likely nothing compared to the crowds they were expecting this weekend for the exhibit; even more so since Target was offering to pay for the cost of admission on opening weekend.

Colorful glass scultures adorn the lower floor of the DeYoung in an retrospective of Seattle glassblower Chihuly's work. One of the more interesting piece in the exhibit is the Persian Ceiling, where colorful glass sculptures are laid above on a glass surface, invoking the feeling of being underneath the sea of glass.
