Millenium Series
In addition to the concert series, the Millennium Cultural Series brought several art events to the Laboratory for the year. Dale Chihuly, famed glass sculptor, presented a lecture on May 2 titled "Chihuly on Chihuly: The Jerusalem Project." The lecture, cohosted by the Hecksher Museum of Art, examined the sculptor's year of work in Israel. The Laboratory's second outdoor art show, Sculpture by the Sea, ran from May 28 through October 31 and featured 17 original works. On August 31, sculptor Charles Jencks unveiled his sculpture Spirals Time-Time Spirals and lectured on his work, particularly how the structure of DNA had inspired this latest piece. On November 4, the Laboratory hosted Labscapes 2000, a painting show which featured 25 pieces depicting the beautiful grounds and historic buildings of the Laboratory's property. Many of the exhibits were possible due to the generosity of Jim and Liz Watson.
