Book Synopsis Clearly Art, Pilchuck's Glass Legacy by : Lloyd E. Herman
Download or read book Clearly Art, Pilchuck's Glass Legacy written by Lloyd E. Herman and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1971 an extraordinary summer experiment in art education launched what is now the world's most famous school of glass, the Pilchuck Glass School, located in the forested foothills of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State. Since the school was founded by artist Dale Chihuly and art patrons John Hauberg and Anne Gould Hauberg, glass has become recognized as a legitimate medium in the visual arts. This publication documents the parallel evolution of artistic sophistication and technical virtuosity in glass with examples by the school's international faculty. It complements the national travelling exhibition curated by Lloyd E. Herman and organized by the Whatcom Museum of History and Art in Bellingham, Washington. The book traces the school's growth from a counter-culture summer glass camp, with impromptu tent structures and a glass furnace constructed by the first summer's students, through its evolution into a professional art school with a waiting list of prospective students. Photographs of the school and its programs over the years accompany color illustrations of 76 objects by 66 world renowned glass artists. Shown are works of art by early faculty members that exemplify the influence of pop art and the "funk" ceramics movement on glass art in the early 1970's, and examples of glass vessels, sculpture, flat glass and glass plate prints produced by faculty members to 1992. A bibliography and a list of faculty since 1971 add to the book's value to art collectors and scholars.

Download or read book Venetians written by Dale Chihuly and published by Chihuly Workshop. This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the most flamboyant and whimsical of all Chihuly's series. The voluptuous glass pieces, shown in full-colour, were inspired by Art Deco Venetian glass during Chihuly's Fullbright scholarship in Venice. With collaboration between Chihuly and glass master Lino Tagliapietra, the series evolved over a period of only seven blowing sessions. Though at their core, the Venetians are vessels of some sort, they explode outward when wrapped with spiralling coils, leaves, feathers, and claws in startling colour combinations. Chihuly chronicles the evolution of the series in his reflective essay included in this volume. His bold and colourful drawings illustrate how the artist guided his team to make these pieces. This oversized book offers a breathtaking view of Chihuly's Venetians, which, more than any other of his series, embody personality and individual character. This book begins with an essay by Ron Glowen.

Book excerpt: When her alcoholic and emotionally abusive mother’s health declines, Joan Rough invites her to move in with her. Rough longs to be the “good daughter,” helping her narcissistic mother face the reality of her coming death. But when repressed memories of childhood abuse by her mother arise, Rough is filled with deep resentment and hatred toward the woman who birthed her, and her dream of mending their tattered relationship shatters. Seven years later, when her mother dies, she is left with a plastic bag of her mother’s ashes and a diagnosis of PTSD. What will she do with them? Courageous and unflinchingly honest, Scattering Ashes is a powerful chronicle of letting go of a loved one, a painful past, and fear―a journey that will bring hope to others who grapple with the pain and repercussions of abuse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Feisty and inquisitive - a fresh take on modern feminist issues.' Julia Gillard Australian women are suffering from a crisis of confidence about work. Accustomed to being overlooked and undervalued, even when women do get to the top, they explain their success away as 'luck'. But it's not. Not Just Luckyexposes the structural and cultural disadvantages that rob women of their confidence - often without them even realising it. Drawing on case studies, detailed research and her own experience in politics and media, Jamila Rizvi is the warm, witty and wise friend you've been waiting for. She'll give you everything you need to start fighting for your own success and for a more inclusive, equal workplace for all. (She'll also bring the red wine.) This unashamedly feminist career manifesto is for women who worry they'll look greedy if they ask for more money. It's for women who dream big but dread the tough conversations. It's for women who get nervous, stressed and worried, and seem to overthink just about everything. It will help you realise that you're not just lucky. You're brilliant. 'Gentle, intelligent, meaningful and uncomfortably true career advice, and a huge high-five to sisterhood. Read it.' Zoe Foster Blake 'Funny, insightful and affirming, this book will have you fist pumping the air.' Clementine Ford

Download or read book Chihuly Drawing written by Dale Chihuly and published by Chihuly Workshop. This book was released on 2003 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles four decades of Dale Chihuly's work on paper, a dynamic collection that is a fascinating study of variety. Many of the drawings are drenched in thick, bold layers of colour. Others are more elusive -- just a hint of form sketched with a fistful of pencils or a confidently manipulated charcoal. Over the years his style has evolved, becoming more abstract and more elaborate, and his drawings, in some cases, have become much larger. But there are no rules; a technique that Chihuly favoured a decade before may resurface again. The excitement of Chihuly's work on paper is in its unpredictability, and that in two dimensions Chihuly is free to let his grandest schemes come to fruition. Above all, Chihuly's work on paper revels in the monumental creativity that is essentially Chihuly.
Book Synopsis Chihuly in the Light of Jerusalem 2000 by : Dale Chihuly
Download or read book Chihuly in the Light of Jerusalem 2000 written by Dale Chihuly and published by Chihuly Workshop. This book was released on 1999 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every time I visited the Citadel, I would imagine what I could do to enhance its glory and bring attention to its soul, says artist Dale Chihuly of his recent project in Jerusalem. In July 1999, Chihuly's grandest and most ambitious undertaking opened at the Citadel, and will remain there for a year. Chihuly in the Light of Jerusalem 2000 serves as a focal point for the city's millennium celebration. This volume highlights 14 major installations commissioned by the Tower of David Museum of the History of Jerusalem. The exhibition is made up of more than 10,000 pieces of glass, blown in France, Japan, the Czech Republic, Finland, Israel, and the United States. Within the walls of the Citadel, Chihuly unexpectedly married ancient and modern forms, animating the stone architecture with glass. Mediterranean sunlight illuminates the Blue Tower, the red and yellow Spears, the Moon, and the Crystal Mountain. Chihuly has transformed the Citadel, once a defensive fortress, into a garden of colour and celebration. Commentary by William Warmus.
