The Gallery

They have a wonderful collection of Chihuly glass art on display and for sale. Some of the art pieces for sale seemed reasonably priced. Lovely gallery to peruse, and there's a lounge and gift shop room where you can sit and relax, or check out other items for sale such as books and DVDs on Dale Chihuly and his artwork. The Gallery and the adjacent art galleries are worth spending some time for a visit. Another plus for the Aria/Vdara Hotel complex.

A great row of galleries here by Aria and the Crystal shopping mall. They have a sizeable collection of Chihuly pieces. Not nearly as good as the Chihuly Museum in Seattle but if you can't get to Seattle this is great place to visit.There was also a photography gallery that does not allow pictures to be taken and a sculpture gallery with works of Richard Mac Donald who specializes on the theme of Cirque du Soleil. A good place to look at some beautiful art pieces for free.

Seeing the Dale Chihuly glass art and paintings on exhibit (and for sale) at this gallery (located in the new City Center) was one of the highlights of our recent trip to Las Vegas. A gallery agent named Mary was particularly helpful and knowledgable about the exhibit. Items displayed included glass chandeliers, sculptures, bowls and columns as well as drawings and something we had not seen in Chihuly exhibits before, an acrylic on plexiglas that was lit from behind for a remarkable impact. We've seen larger collections of Chihuly's work and installations in more amazing settings, as in the Desert Botanical Garden in AZ a couple of years ago and, of course, the ceiliing of the Bellagio lobby. But the display here seemed unique for how "up close" one could get to the art. Now if we could only afford to buy one of the talented Mr.Chihuly's creations! Hmmm..we wonder how those blackjack tables work???

Dedicated to all things Chihuly, The Gallery is a sight to behold!All kinds of Chihuly glass from chandeliers, exquisite table sculptures, foyer sculptures, & bowls - ranging from small to gargantuanThe colors in these glassworks are absolutely amazing & the light refracts in such unique ways that it's like you're getting a different sculpture from every angle.This shop in particular also boasts some sculptures that are only found at that 1 store - so you won't see them anywhere elsePrice tags are what one might expect from such a famous artist & his team. I think the small bowl we were looking at was something like $5500 and the next fav of ours - a double bowl sculpture - was something like $9800......a true collector's dream!But if your interest lies more in the learning & appreciation arena, there are also these really cool light-changing lithographs, DVDs, & books telling all about Chihuly's works & various exhibits......in fact, they have a video always running that showcases 1 of the Chihuly DVDs so you can see the glass being made, learn about the artist & get wowed ( like that's hard to do! )The woman who assisted us both times we were in this shop was attentive w/out hovering. She gladly offered us info about the pieces we were looking at but there was no sales pressure at all. If we ever decide to take the plunge & bring home 1 of these little beauties, we would make a point to purchase our lovely from this specific shop & seek this specific salesperson outBut no matter what, if you appreciate Chihuly & the lovely glassworks, this is a place to check out!

When I first walked into the Bellagio Lobby and saw the Dale Chihuly glass art on the ceiling, my first thought was: "Wow! Bogenrief Glass from Spencer Iowa made it to Las Vegas!" OK, there are some interesting style similarities...During my recent trip to Las Vegas, I also saw Chihuly glass in a small shop just off the Bellagio Conservatory and at this Gallery farther down the Strip in the City Center Area. There's also apparently examples of his fine work on display at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco. It's all gorgeous and well above my pay grade. However, it never hurts to look and realize that the perfectly fine, cheaper, and less famous Hawkeye version is good enough.

If you have ever been to the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas you are already familiar with Dale Chihuly's work. His famous contemporary glass sculpture, representative of flowers in bloom, hangs from the ceiling as you walk in the main entrance of the hotel. The Gallery is located on Gallery Row, which is located between the Aria Hotel and the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in the CityCenter complex in Las Vegas, Nevada. For those of you not familiar with the CityCenter complex, it is a large development comprised of the Crystal Place shopping mall, Mandarin Oriental Hotel and the Aria Hotel & Casino. A mind-blowing exhibition of Dale Chihuly is currently on view at The Gallery. My favorite piece was Chihuly's "Lime Green Icicle Tower." It is a good thing the gallery is over 4000 square feet because this piece was massive! The other works in the gallery vary in size and there are even a few paintings and a few prints. The art in the gallery was for sale and ranged from $6000 all the way up to $400,000.The entire Gallery Row is comprised of three galleries and is well worth checking out. Best of all, it is free!

Chihuly art with zero crowds and zero admission fee, and a knowledgeable staffer.

Big fan of Chihuly's work, and seeing all of his masterpieces makes me wish I could afford one of his works of art to bring home:(

Yelp 100 Challenge * 4/100I still get mind-blown by Dale Chihuly's glass art deco at the Bellagio that hangs above the hotel lobby's ceiling upon entrance, an extravagant welcome (and topper) after any experience at the fountains that still leaves me smiling today. And to actually step foot in one of his galleries felt almost surreal. This was the first in line to a series of galleries at Crystals place at City Center. As we got in, my friends and I were greeted with a nice, warm welcome by art consultants, Terri and Bravo, who were both very accomodating and ready to answer any questions we might've had. Terri introduced us to the acrylic lithographs that started at about $2000 and were considered the cheapest art pieces in the gallery while the cheapest glass sculpture was priced at about $4500. Shaped to perfection and precise geometry, I would argue that despite the price, it's well worth it. Besides the utterly expensive professional pieces, be mindful that there are other products available for purchase such as books, DVDs and even Chihuly art kits for souvenirs that are within the 2-digit price range so be sure to look into those as well. As we were about to leave, Terri handed us a catalog filled with amazing Chihuly's artwork. I'm particularly attracted to the Cerulean Macchia, a cute and colorful glass sculpture that brings about so much beauty, pretty sure it'd brighten any room.

A wonderful place for all the art lovers. The art pieces were very impressive though very expensive. The staff at gallery was helpful and attentive.
