This signed artist’s portfolio, Chihuly Over Venice: Nuutajärvi, Finland, is a collector’s edition featuring Dale Chihuly’s gold-painted signature on the cover. Inside, the portfolio showcases vivid photographs and drawings from Chihuly’s June 1995 collaboration in Finland, where he embarked on his global project to create chandeliers in the world’s great glassmaking centers. The journey began in the small village of Nuutajärvi, north of Helsinki, where Chihuly and his team of American glassblowers worked alongside artisans from the renowned Hackman factory—known for its modernist designs—to produce the first of fourteen chandeliers later installed in Venice.

Presented in an oversized, loose-leaf format, this limited portfolio captures the creative energy of the project. The photographs document the breathtaking temporary installations that transformed the Finnish landscape, while reproductions of Chihuly’s original drawings reveal the artistic vision behind these glass masterpieces.
