While in Saint Petersburg, we visited the Chihuly Collection.
A red chandelier was alone and beautifully lit in a small room. The chandelier stood out, and the shadows were terrific. The Bushnell Hall in Hartford also has a big, bright red chandelier like this one.
The glass ceiling of a corridor was full of colorful glass. The ceiling was similar to the one at the Baker Museum in Naples.
I tried to remember how many places I have seen Chihuly glass. I can remember Hartford and New Britain in Connecticut, Naples, Columbus and Chihuly's studios in Tacoma. There are probably more.
A display case had a colorful and varied collection of glass.
Dale Chihuly communicates his ideas for glass objects to his team in large, fluid paintings.
The blue chandelier was the perfect companion.
I've also been to the Chihuly hot shop in Tacoma, WA. He has a glass floor in the Oklahoma City Art Museum that looks similar to your photo of the ceiling.
