The guru of glass comes to Chicago! Glass
artisan, Dale Chilhuly's dynamic displays of glass works span almost
40 years at over 190 museums around the world. He has come to Chicago
to present his work for the first time in a conservatory. Chihuly
in the Park: A Garden of Glass is now at the Garfield Park Conservatory.
It is a beautiful combination of plant life and organic glass art.
190 North's cameras went over to the Garfield Park Conservatory
to capture a bit of Chihuly's magic and we got to speak to the man
himself about why Chicago inspires him.
