	The Lowe Gallery: Dale Chihuly - Bio (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Dale Chihuly is most frequently lauded for revolutionizing the Studio Glass movement, by expanding its original premise of the solitary artist working in a studio environment to encompass the notion of collaborative teams and a division of labor within the creative process.
		Chihuly’s practice of using teams has led to the development of complex, multipart sculptures of dramatic beauty that place him in the leadership role of moving blown glass out of the confines of the small, precious object and into the realm of large-scale contemporary sculpture.
		Chihuly and his teams have created a wide vocabulary of blown forms, revisiting and refining earlier shapes while at the same time creating exciting new elements, such as his recent Fiori, all of which demonstrate mastery and understanding of glassblowing techniques.

	Chihuly victimized by his own success?
		Dale Chihuly is the most inventive glass sculptor in the history of the medium, but a massive career and many honors have not insulated him from personal and professional troubles that trail him lately like a bad smell.
		Chihuly started out blowing his own glass and might still be if it weren't for a 1976 car accident that left him blind in one eye and lacking depth perception.
		Chihuly said yes immediately, but on the appointed day he was too busy to go and sent assistant Kate Elliott in his stead, armed with a slumped glass basket in Bubble Wrap.

		Dale Chihuly’s crystal “chandelier”; is unusual because it represents the first time that an outside artist was allowed into Ireland’s Waterford Crystal factory to work with the factory artisans dedicated to making the beautiful cut crystal goblets, bowls, and other crystal items for which Waterford is famous.

		Chihuly has exhibited his work in public spaces such as in the cities of Venice and Jerusalem, and in museums all over the world.

		Chihuly successfully resists being trapped in many of the pigeonholes that make for neat categories, but leach art of its complexity.
		Clement Greenberg's hold on the imagination was most vivid, and it was the veils of Morris Louis, the chevrons and stripes of Kenneth Noland, and the large stained chromatic landscapes of Helen Frankenthaler that heralded a new aesthetic sensibility.
		"Chihuly's recent series, Macchia (Italian for "spotted"), resists analysis by reason of its "rightness," its truth both to nature, from which certain of the forms derive, and to his own sensibility, well established during the two decades in which Chihuly has produced masterly glass.

	Metroactive Arts \| Dale Chihuly exhibit
		Massed into groupings for installation in the vaulted expanse of the museum's new wing by team members from the artist's Seattle studios, the intent is to literally expand upon tradition, to render and present what is often a decorative art on a monumental, sculptural scale.
		A former interior designer, Chihuly is acutely aware of the interaction of his glass pieces with the space around them, tailoring each installation to its location.
		Chihuly's attempt to build--literally--upon this sensation by fashioning a Persian Pergola, however, fails on a grand scale.

		Dale Chihuly, one of the great masters of our time, also has an exhibit in Hamilton, NJ through July.
		Chihuly's always been one of my favorites, and I've been wanting to see his stuff in person for ages.
		Chihuly's talent lies in the construction and placement of his work more than his skill as a glass artist -- taken individually, the individual elements of his composite sculptures are pretty run-of-the mill glasswork, doable by just about anyone working in the field today.
