Chihuly - Les Barques (1) - a photo on Flickriver

            Les Barques ressemblent à des cornes d’abondance. Elles sont venues s’ajouter au répertoire de Chihuly en 1995, lorsque l’artiste et son équipe ont séjourné en Finlande pour la production d’une exposition. D’un geste spontané, Chihuly a lancé à l’eau différents éléments de verre. Aujourd’hui, il présente régulièrement de vieilles barques sur les plans d’eau de certains jardins ou les intègre à ses environnements imaginés pour des musées.

The Boats, which look like horns of plenty, were added to Chihuly’s repertory of installations in 1995, when the artist and his team were in Finland making the chandeliers for the show Chihuly over Venice. One day, on an impulse, Chihuly threw some pieces of glass into the river. The artist now regularly presents old boats floating on pools of water in gardens or incorporates them into the environments he dreams up for museums.
