Bonfire Baskets
Since their first appearance in a 1977 exhibition at the Seattle Art Museum, Dale Chihuly’s Baskets have evolved into an organic series that embraces the natural qualities of molten glass. “This meant letting glass find its own form,” says Chihuly.
Bonfire Baskets, a 2003 Portland Press Studio Edition, explores the inherent delicacy of glass. This elegant handblown work is signed and measures approximately ten inches across. Included with this pair is a Plexiglas display case and the hardcover monograph Chihuly: Baskets.
This 148-page publication features two essays and seventeen beautiful sepiatones images of Native American basketry that inspired Chihuly. With graceful harmony and languid curves, Bonfire Baskets exemplifies refinement.
