The ‘Chihuly—The Nature of Glass’ - blown glass exhibit currently at the Arizona Desert Botanical Gardens will be displayed through May 31, 2009.
This display of unusual and creative glass art sculpture is well worth the visit. Dale Chihuly's work is included in more than 200 museum collections worldwide. This is his first exhibition in an outdoor desert environment. His creative art work is quite amazing. We arrived early enough to view the glass sculptures before sunset and then also took in their be
auty after the sun went down. Mr. Chihuly has created a variety of glass works are displayed throughout the gardens.
The colors are vibrant and the detail is amazing. His innovative glass creations are magnificent. I can only imagine how long it must have taken for him to create, transport and set up this exhibit. Not to mention, that many are displayed in the middle of some very thorny cacti! The event is fun for all - you can view not only the glass exhibit, but also experience the beauty of the red buttes of Papago Park and the wide variety of desert plants maintained throughout the Desert Botanical Gardens 50 acres! The gar
den is Home to 139 rare, threatened and endangered plant species from around the world. only 10 days left - plan your tirp soon.
Arizona is a great place to live, work and play!
