CHIHULY FILM SERIES & GUIDED TOURS
We will be showing three films featuring Dale Chihuly and his glass works. Please join us to see the master at work. Following each showing, there will be a guided tour of approximately 30 minutes. The film series and tour are free with Museum admission.
Sunday, May 23 2:00 p.m. Chihuly: River of Glass (30 minutes)
This film captures the excitement of creating masterpieces in four venues: Nuutajarvi, Finland; Waterford, Ireland; Monterrey, Mexico; and Venice. The beauty of the glass works is sensitively and evocatively documented, using interviews with the artist and many of those involved in the project.
Sunday, June 27 2:00 p.m. Chihuly Atlantis (30 minutes)
Marvel at the four Chihuly sculptures that grave the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Chihuly calls the effect “as dramatic as the sun going down and a full moon coming up.” Watch the Chihuly team working from prototypes to create these exquisite works of art.
Sunday, July 25 2:00 p.m. Chihuly and the Masters of Venice (60 minutes)
While perusing the historic techniques of glass art in Venice, Dale Chihuly is inspired to create magnificent work—if only he can persuade the two premier Venetian glass masters to join forces! Watch as Chihuly collaborates separately at first, and then in concert with Lino Tagliapietra and Pino Signoretto, bringing them to the United States for a series of ground-breaking sessions
