Chiluly Scuplture

This is yet another sculpture by Dale Chiluly, considered to be the best glass sculpter working today. We've seen his work in at least five different places on this trip.

The Mayo Clinic has an impressive art collection; they even offer tours. Chiluly's working style has a strong emphasis on teamwork in his studio, and that resonates with the Mayo Clinic's history of openess and collaboration.
