Dale Chihuly's obsession with color ("I never saw one I didn't like") and his insatiable desire to experiment inspired his Macchia (Italian for spot or stain) series. Chihuly alla Macchia traces its development from the first small, oddly shaped, grotesquely colored vessels, dubbed the "uglies" by Chihuly's forthright mother when they began in 1981, to the recent flamboyant and exuberantly hued Macchia. Published by the Art Museum of Southeast Texas, Chihuly alla Macchia reproduces in full-color the 39 glass works and 15 drawings included in the 1993 exhibition of the George R. Stroemple collection. The 6" x 6" book, designed by Werkhaus Design of Seattle, is not, however, merely an exhibition catalog. Through the extensive use of close-up details, it offers the reader a chance to experience the glass work in an intimate manner. In his essay Robert Hobbs, the Rhoda Thalhimer Endowed Professor of American Art History at Virginia Commonwealth University, places the Macchia in an art historical context that begins with Titian as well as within the artist's oeuvre. Chihuly's own words illuminate his creative process. In addition to the exhibition checklist, a chronology is included.
