Everyone’s a Critic
A man found several stolen glass sculptures designed by artist Dale Chihuly in a vacant lot less than a mile from where they had been taken, authorities said Wednesday.The red glass reeds were found Tuesday in poor condition in and around a trash pile, said Detective Peter Cuervo, a spokesman for the Coral Gables Police Department. Eight reeds had been stolen from the exhibit at the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and authorities believe they recovered them all.
“It looks like they were just thrown and discarded,” Cuervo said.

I guess they don't recycle in Florida.

So how do we know they were in poor condition?

Does supervising art being made really make one an artist?
Posted by monkey | April 18, 2007 1:21 PMI agree Dale Chihuly is okay but putting him on an ivory tower is really pushing it. And some of his work, well how can you tell it is broken or not?
