CHIHULY

CHIHULY showcased more than 20 installations and included drawings and early works that revealed the evolution and development of Chihuly’s artistic process during his celebrated career. Set within NYBG’s landmark landscape and buildings, this sensory-filled exhibition was ever-changing with the seasons from spring through fall.

The Garden’s dramatic vistas became living canvases for work created specifically for NYBG, showcasing Chihuly’s signature organic shapes in brilliant colors. Among the singular sights was a monumental reimagination of his storied 1975 Artpark installation: three new works enlivened the water features of the Native Plant Garden and the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory Courtyard’s Tropical Pool, reflecting the interplay and movement of color and light.
