A behind-the-scenes look at the studio of artist Dale ChihulyThis book features an exclusive glimpse into The Boathouse, the private working studio of artist Dale Chihuly, and into the history of its location on the shores of Lake Union in Seattle. Inhabited for thousands of years, this area in the Pacific Northwest has witnessed significant historical changes, innovations, and reinventions. Similarly, The Boathouse has been a place for Chihuly to experiment with and give birth to new projects and ideas, as it was for its previous owner, renowned boatbuilder George Pocock. Inside, the space is representative of Chihuly's design aesthetic, showcasing pieces from his iconic bodies of work as well as his personal collections of art and unique objects. It is also home to one of the largest hot shops in the world, where Chihuly and his team of glassblowers create works in glass for art installations and exhibitions at museums and gardens.

Born in 1942, Narcissus Quagliata studied painting and graphics in Rome and completed his studies at the Art Institute of San Francisco. Very early on, he discovered glass as the most suitable material with which to express himself artistically, focussing in particular on the phenomenon of light and its interplay with coloured glass. In cooperation with industry, Quagliata experimented at an early stage with the development of new forms and applications of glass. Today Narcissus Quagliata is considered one of the most significant glass artists, drawing worldwide attention through his spectacular works in public spaces, such as the Taiwan Dome of Light, the largest illuminated glass ceiling in the world, which forms the roof of the subway station in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The construction stretches across an approximately 30-metre-wide space. His glass dome in the Santa Maria degli Angeli church, built by Michelangelo within the Baths of Diocletian in Rome, is equally well-known. It provides colourful illumination for the famous entry rotunda of the basilica. With essays by William Warmus, Maricruz Patiño, Rosa Barovier, Pearl Chou, Neil Hassal and Narcissus Quagliata, and short contributions by Lani McGregor, Dorothy Lenehan, Rachel Mesrahi, Celina Szelejewska
