Download or read book Chihuly in the Light of Jerusalem 2000 written by Dale Chihuly. This book was released on 1999. 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.

Book Synopsis Chihuly Jerusalem 2000 by : Dale Chihuly
Download or read book Chihuly Jerusalem 2000 written by Dale Chihuly. This book was released on 2000. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we stand on the threshold of the new millennium here at the ancient Tower of David, this is my own personal tribute, says Dale Chihuly at the completion of his project in Israel. Fifteen soaring sculptures made from more than ten thousand glass parts blown in France, Japan, the Czech Republic, Finland, Israel, and the United States were specifically created to take advantage of the stone walls of the historic Citadel, as well as the Mediterranean sunlight. This full-size book documents the yearlong exhibition with 117 full-colour reproductions of Chihuly's sculptures, his energetic drawings, and his team as they install the exhibition. These beautiful images are accompanied by Chihuly's affectionate letters to his young son, Jackson, about the joys and challenges of the project and his essay (reprinted with permission from Ariel: The Israel Review of Arts and Letters, vol. 111, 1999) on his inspirations at the site. Also included is an illuminating foreword by Shosh Yaniv, director of the Tower of David Museum of the History of Jerusalem, and a section containing seven insightful reviews of the exhibition.This book offers an opportunity to share in a unique millennium celebration -- a joyous tribute by an artist as he captures the light, history, and essence of one of the greatest cities in the world.
