Read the article and discuss your answers to your question as a group. Then share your ideas with the class:
a. How might a viewer interact with a large sculpture in a way that is different than one that is small? (yellow table) b. Which artist’s style appeals to you most? What about the sculpture makes you like it? (green table) c. Which sculpture may have been the most difficult to create? Why do you think this is so? (blue table) d. Do you think an artist can create a large sculpture on his/her own? If he/she needed help to complete the project, is he/she still the artist? Why or why not? (violet table) e. Use your tablet to gather information to answer the following questions: What more can you find on American Artist, Dale Chihuly? What processes does he use to create his work? What obstacles has he faced in his life? Where can you find his work displayed in Utah? (red table) f. What additional meaning can be added to a work of art by the way it is displayed? How can the location a work of art is displayed in add to the message the artist is communicating with the viewer? If you were to create a sculpture of a spider how might the meaning of the sculpture be different if it were displayed on a wall in the corner of a room versus on a dinner plate on a table set for two?

I think an artist can create a large sculpture on their own, it would just take a lot of time. If they need help to create the project, then I think they are still the main artist, it's just like they had co-artists. But the people who helped are also the artists.

I think Noguchi's art work of the cube standing on one corner with a hole in it would be the most interesting. Because wonder how he got it to balance on one corner.

We like Hanging in the Balance by Dale Chihuly because of his style and bright use of colors. We like how it is unique with different shapes and things sticking out, and that it's made out of glass, where it is and how its in-the-round, and the bright colors that stood out.

Hanging in the balance by Dale Chihuly. It looks like the sculpture is floating in mid air, also the colors are very vibrant and give the sculpture a happy feel.

I think the rotunda chandelier by dale chihuly made in 1999 was the hardest to create, every last detail had to be perfect. It is made by hand blown glass that can be viewed from all sides, and would be quite difficult to build.

Yes, but he/she can receive help if they ask. She would still be the artist because it was he/she thought of the concept and was the one that hired the people that he/she asked for help if they did or not

He creates miniature pieces of glass and mends them together. A while ago he was in a car crash and was blinded in his left eye. You can find more of his works in Utah University.
