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? (orange table)
