Happy Friday! Fact Friday features World of Glass: the Art of Dale Chihuly by Jan Greenberg and Sandra Jordan. If you're an artist, art lover or student of art history, you should never miss a biography written by these two collaborators. 

Dale Chihuly is a world-renowned glassblower. His innovative style and use of shapes and color make his glass sculptures singularly unique. The authors trace the artist's life from his childhood in Tacoma, Washington through the loss of both his brother and father, through college to his professional life. The text is accompanied by many striking color photos of the artist in action and his pieces.

World of Glass is a handsome addition to any library.
