Oklahoma City Museum of Art

Alright, as promised I will let you know about the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, which is where roommate and I spent Sunday morning. We were there for 2 and 1/2 hours and didn't see it all. This is a fantastic museum and the main attraction was the Chihuly glass collection. If you have a chance, go to the museum's web site to see more than what I can tell you in this blog.
Here is some info about Chihuly:

Dale Chihuly's well-grounded academic and practical background includes a B.A. in interior design from the University of Washington, a M.S. in sculpture from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a M.F.A. in sculpture from the Rhode Island School of Design, and honorary doctorates from the University of Puget Sound and the Rhode Island School of Design. He was also awarded a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation grant for work in glass and studied at Italy's prestigious Venini glass factory on a Fulbright Fellowship.

Chihuly's work is included in over 200 museum collections including the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, and he has received world renown for his extensive glass series, international projects, and large architectural installations such as the Museum's Eleanor Blake Kirkpatrick Memorial Tower, which is his tallest installation to date. Dale Chihuly: The Exhibition represents over three decades of Chihuly's finest work and heralds this brilliant luminist as the most important artist working in glass since Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Until next time: when I will have some pictures from the trip.
