This group of artists has developed their unique body of works with the aid of modern machines. Although the technology is integral to each of their processes; the human hand is what brings the work to life. Curated by John Sharvin.

Toledo Museum of Art Acquires Chihuly Chandelier 

  • Confetti Chandelier is on view in the Director’s Conference Room, located off of Libbey Court, and was installed as part of an update to the space, which is used for both internal and public meetings.
  • “The colorful chandelier is visible even when the frosted glass door is closed, but we would welcome visitors to take a closer look at it and the paintings in the room when it is not in use and the door is open,” said Diane Wright, TMA’s interim director of curatorial affairs and senior curator of glass and decorative arts. “We are grateful for Sara Jane DeHoff, vice chair of TMA’s board of trustees, who donated this magnificent work to the Toledo Museum of Art.”
