The Foothills Branch of the Glendale Public Library (In Arizona) has a fascinating sculpture by Chihuly hanging near the front entrance of the library.

And for those interested, Chihuly has his own website:

This may not be, ahem, what your professor exactly had in mind, but . . .

The first novel that leaped to mind was Born in Fire by Nora Roberts, in which the
central character is a glass artist. I learned so much about glassblowing! I have
always loved art glass since I discovered Dale Chihuly at Kent State (my alma mater),
and this look at the tools and state of mind and *physical experience* of working with
a medium that can set you on fire was remarkable.

That was my first Nora Roberts book and I've never looked back. :-)
