Chihuly redux

Anyone who's been coming around here for a while knows that I just can't get enough of Dale Chihuly's magnificent work, so what a treat to find that a number of his pieces were still on permanent display at Tel Aviv's Litvak Gallery even after the close of last winter's spectacular solo show.

Here's one of my favorites - a black and yellow basket with just enough of a red (ok, orangey-red, but definitely still in the red family) tinge around the top to sneak it in for this week's Ruby Tuesday ;).

    What a cool view! The black seems foreboding as it goes up to the precipice of the yellow. The brilliant golden hue gives me a feeling of depth, as if the drop is for a great distance. I'd watch my step...

    What a beauty of dramatic colours and shapes. The shapes reminds me of the Finnish Alvar Alto's famous vases, but the colours; liquid lava in a black rock are unique.Your way of adding light to the photo surely even more enhanced the artist's work.
    Just great.

    It looks like a lava flow!

    YEA FOR SCARLET

    Yea for scarlet, yea for red!
    Yea for summertime that’s fled
    To some far-off frigid place,
    Where no ruby shows its face!
