For "Chihuly Over Venice," Chihuly and his team planned, created, engineered, and coordinated for over a year. They worked with teams of glassblowers in four countries to create the thousands of elements needed for the 14 "Chandeliers" he would present during just three fleeting weeks in Venice. Audacious and experimental, "Chihuly Over Venice" was the artist's love letter to the city that is his lifelong inspiration. ​ Near the Venini Factory, where he first studied as a Fulbright Fellow, Chihu

He was a newly minted MFA graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, invited to study at the prestigious Venini factory on the island of Murano as a Fulbright fellow. ​ ​At Venini, he saw the team model of glassblowing for the first time. It was a revelation. During much of his education, glassblowing had been framed as a somewhat solitary pursuit. But what if a talented team of glassblowers, led by an artist, could work together to create art on a prev
