Chihuly!
By I wish I had posted this entry sooner because it ties in so well with Erik’s earlier entry on OKC, but better late than never.
Recently I had the pleasure of visiting the Oklahoma Museum of Art with my father. We were both really impressed with the whole experience (it’s an attractive museum with a knowledgeable, helpful, friendly staff), but let’s be honest: the jewel in OMA’s crown is the third floor Chihuly exhibit, which is nothing less than breathtaking. You walk through dark halls and rooms…and the only thing illuminating the spaces is Chihuly’s exquisitely-lit art. Each installation is more grand than the next. It really is a sight to behold.
OMA boasts the second largest collection of Chihuly art and is in possession of his largest piece.
It’s all pretty stinkin’ impressive. Do drop in if you’re ever in the area.
