Free Form Art Glass Bowl, signed and dated '95. This piece was bequeathed from a private foundation to Ringling School of Art & Design. Born in Tacoma, Washington, Dale Chihuly became the most famous ornate glass maker of the late 20th century in America. He received a B.A. degree from the University of Washington at Seattle and an M.F.A. in 1968 from the Rhode Island School of Design. From 1967 to 1980, he was Chairman there of the Department of Glassblowing. In 1971, he was a co-founder of the Pilchuck Glass Center in Stanwood, Washington near Seattle. Dale Chihuly is known for pushing the glass envelope past all imaginable limits. He broke with the tradition of symmetrical glass by designing organic-looking vessels that resemble huge clamshells or flower petals. His work suggests movement, capturing the shape of the molten flow of the medium. Whether regarding his small-scale blown glass works, large sculpture or site-specific installations, Chihuly creates a sense of wonder and excitement that has captured the world's attention. Size: 10 x 10 in.
