I didn’t even know they had stolen them! His sculptures are fairly big and couldn’t be carried out under a trenchcoat. You can Google Chihuly at Cheekwood and see how magnificent it was, especially at night.

I would have to google the story to remember details, but I think he made a bowl and gave to the White House - they took it with them instead of leaving it

HA!!! i didn’t even read down to see you had said the same thing, but that’s what comes to my mind and i knew it was on some LONG list of stuff that freepers had compiled but couldn’t remember what the list was for, but it was clintoon related!

The real plinth that is the Obama platform...

I really liked most of the sculptures we saw but that one looks a little ... risque, maybe because it lacks any bright color. Most artists are raging leftists so I’m not surprised.

His stuff is cool looking, I agree. It may just look risqué bc it’s in the clintoon trailer lieberry! We are prob gonna have to stop for a photo op in front of the place when driving to Dallas for graduation in May.

Another usage is the carpenter’s familiar plinth block, often used at both the bottom and top of casements around doors and windows. I have several right in this room.
While decorative, their real utility is that they allow square cuts and speed finish work.
