Chihuly at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts

On Tuesday I passed by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and couldn’t help but stop and take a few pictures of Dale Chihuly’s glass tree outside the Michal and Renata Hornstein Pavillion.

Having checked out some of his amazing art on line (and there is a lot !), this is an exhibition I will certainly be sure to check out.

Although I’ve shot The Eye sculpture by David Altmejd before, I thought another shot was worth taking due to the nice light falling on the building behind.

Claude Cormier is back again with a follow up to last year’s TOM installation – called TOM II this time. This year it’s a mix of red, green and white that resembles a field of poppies covering the pedestrianized avenue Du Musée. The installation is part of the summer Sculpture Garden that the museum opens each summer (2013 season ends October 27).

Thanks for stopping by. Until next time.
