Description:
Just as the catalogue title Tutti Putti implies, it's all putti, those cherubic figures with the corkscrew curls and mischievous expressions. Working with the Italian maestro of hot-glass sculpting, Pino Signoretto, Dale Chihuly has created a company of pudgy putti to cavort on his Venetians and frolic among the blossoms of the Ikebana. Published on the occasion of Chihuly's 1991 solo exhibition at the Pence Gallery in Santa Monica, the text-less catalogue proves that a picture is worth a thousand words.
