Chihuly "Persian Window"

Artist Jay Rolfe is seeing Dale Chihuly work everywhere. On Friday evening we was at the Delaware Art Museum to see the Pre-Raphael Brotherhood paintings and saw the Chihuly "Persian Window" installation over the entrance. It was strikingly beautiful at night. Today's photo of the day is the night photo of Chihuly's "Persian Window" made for the museum in 1999-2000 and expanded for the new entrance in 2005. Here's a link to one of the museum's daytime photos of the same work. http://www.delart.org/view/collections/chihuly_interior.html And a link to a detail of the work. http://www.delart.org/view/collections/chihuly_detail_04.html

You may view some of Jay Rolfe's signature style, his innovative 3-D Shaped Stretched Canvas paintings, on his website at http://www.3dssc.com/. Artist Jay Rolfe uses his melancholic artistic temperament to passionately explore contemporary issues such as the nature of existence, disorientation, alienation, loneliness, unrequited love, complex relationships, conflict, unrest, war, greed, unfulfilled dreams, yearning, and boredom.

Dale Chihuly Steinway Imperial Piano

On Sunday artist Jay Rolfe attended the Philadelphia Flower Show as the guest of his mother-in-law's life partner along with a group of family. Imagine his surprise to find artist Dale Chihuly's Steinway Imperial piano prominently displayed inside the entrance to the show. Chihuly is most known for his glass art - think the Bellagio - including many beautiful chandeliers. You can see other works on his website, www.chihuly.com/. The photo of the day is artist Jay Rolfe standing in front of Dale Chihuly's Steinway Imperial piano on Sunday March 2, 2008. Jay Rolfe is holding 2 dozen roses he bought for his wife.
