1 erusalem may be a perpetually
fragile city, but in recent
months, American artist Dale
Chihuly has been trying to
bring people together around a spec-
tacular display of colorful glass
sculpture. He'll focus on the F`-
project, as well as speak about
his life and other work, Nov. 2 -4 , 9
at Rackham Auditorium in
:=.
Ann Arbor.
Since July, Chihuly, a world-
renowned Seattle-based glass f-
artist, has displayed a special
exhibition at the Tower of
David Museum at the Jaffa
Gate in the Old City of
Jerusalem. In the first two
months alone, 200,000 people
visited the Citadel to see the
creations of Chihuly's glass-
blowing teams. Made of
10,000 pieces and 42 tons of
glass, the sculptures will be on
display through next spring.
Among the 15 installations
on display in the courtyard of
the ancient fortress are a 40-
foot-high tower made of 2,000
blue and white snakelike pro-
trusions, a triangular construc-
tion of blood-red spears and
the Crystal Mountain, a huge
structure made of pink candy-
like extensions.
"The idea hopefully is that
this will bring a lot of joy to people
and will make people feel good," said
Chihuly in a telephone interview.
"Not all art does that."
Indeed, Deborah Lipson, spokes-
woman for the museum, says throngs
of Israelis have been swept away.
"It has captured the imagination. It
is largely a celebration of beauty and
joy of color of a material that has
never been pushed to these bound-
aries," she said. "People constantly
come in and just say, 'Wow!'"
Chihuly has fond memories of Israel
from a stint on a kibbutz in 1962, but
he first thought of bringing his work to
Israel when Izzika Gaon, the late cura-
tor of the Israel Museum, visited him

in Seattle in 1997• Gaon died later that
year, and when Chihuly returned to
Israel for Gaon's memorial service, he
followed up on Gaon's recommenda-
tion to look at the Citadel site.
He was completely overwhelmed by
the location. In time, Chihuly's pro-
ject became increasingly ambitious,

over the canals of Venice and whose
work is displayed in the world's most
famous museums.
"Each time I came back to
Jerusalem my ideas got a little bigger,
Chihuly said.
Although Chihuly, 57, was profes-
sionally trained in glassblowing and is
privy to the secrets of the Venetian
masters, he no longer blows glass him-
self since he lost his left eye — and his
depth perception — in a 1976 car
accident.
Instead, Chihuly directs teams of
glassblowers, a method that has drawn
fire from some critics but has also
allowed him to create the enormous
sculptures on display in Jerusalem today
