In Dallas, Chihuly currently has two major art exhibitions showcasing his artwork. Chihuly: Recent Works and New Forms is at the Talley Dunn Gallery in Dallas. This exhibition is running from May 12-August 18, 2012 and features paintings and other paper works along with the Dale Chihuly glass that the artist is most famous for, including two chandeliers and a one of a kind “indoor garden” installation. Another option available to see Dale Chihuly artwork for Dallas residents is at Chihuly at the Dallas Arboretum running from May 5-Novemeber 5 2012. This is a unique opportunity because in addition to showcasing Chihuly fabulous glass work, it also ties this work in with his love of nature and flowers. Many of Chihuly’s most recent works are installation in or involving gardens or greenhouses since they are a passion and primary source of inspiration for the artist. For the installation in the Dallas Arboretum there are more than 25 large, dramatic glass sculptures displayed in over 15 locations throughout the arboretum’s property of more than 66 acres. The most impressive piece on display is called “The Sun” and is comprised of more than 1220 separate parts that all had to be hand constructed when it arrived in Dallas.
In addition to these two great opportunities to see Dale Chihuly glass installations in Dallas, there are also excellent permanent opportunities to see Chihuly art in Dallas museums. His work can always be seen at the prestigious Dallas Museum of Art and the Jesuit Dallas Museum.
This unique opportunity for Dallas residents to see Chihuly’s is rare and well timed. Dale Chihuly paintings and glass are at the height of popularity currently in the U.S. and for one city to have so many opportunities to enjoy his work is truly unique to any U.S. city outside of Chihuly’s home state of Washington. If you will be in Dallas over the next few months, now is a better time than any to develop a new appreciation for Dale Chihuly’s artwork, his technique, and his avant guard vision.
