PrtyPSux 0 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 wow barrys sucha fcking pimp, i didint like him before now hes sickI didnt like him for a while either, than I realized he was super smart when I read his book, but I still thought he'd be a douche in real life. Then I met him and he's really awesome, the opposite of how it seems on tv, he's super talkative and really open about almost everything. Like you can be at the table and ask him his opinion on certain aspects of poker or life or whatever and he'll go on and on about it, you can learn a lot from him. Def one of my favorite people in poker. Link to post Share on other sites

mtdesmoines 3 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 http://www.cardplayer.com/tv/28424Definitely the best one they have shown thus far. His comment at the end of the interview is so classic. One day I want to grow up and be like Barry, this guy is my idol. : )RED carpet and gumdrops on the ceiling! Link to post Share on other sites

But if it's a real Chihuly then that's gotta be $300K - $500K of glass on that ceiling. Chihuly is sick I love his stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

Plus he's got a really cool eye patch. I've always thought the cleaning of his art though must be like $5,000+ every 6 months or so.But that's about the only art I could see that I thought fit in that nice of a house Link to post Share on other sites

The eye patch is cool and he is whacked out but kinda fun. He doesn't do any actual glass blowing anymore he just tells his assistants what to do and paints pictures of what they should look like.

Especially the stuff he did in Venice i think where he floated hundreds of his sculptures in the canals and hung them on the banks so amazing.Sorry to hijack here but this guy IMHO is one of the few modern day masters of an art form.

Balloon guy 158 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Personally I prefer his art he did in Israel over his chandeliers. They are cool, but not really my taste for a home. But in a large building they are trick. Link to post Share on other sites

yeffy 0 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 He's currently based out of Seattle(or Washington in general), no?He has studios in Seattle and Tacoma. I went to the one in Ballard (seattle suburb)Personally I prefer his art he did in Israel over his chandeliers. They are cool, but not really my taste for a home. But in a large building they are trick.Check out the Venice installation. And I agree about the chandeliers in homes. There are a couple pics of them in private homes where they sit in a room and go from floor to ceiling...a bit overbearing. Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I dig it. Link to post Share on other sites
Veener Schnitz 0 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I kinda like Doyle's house more than Barry's because it seemed more modern and less fancy to me. Plus he had a kick ass backyard. Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I dig it.Those people need to watch him paint the mockups of the pieces. It's really cool the way he does it with squirt bottles. And he's created almost every technique to produce this stuff. They have their opinion...I say genius.You want a modern fraud lauded as a genius.... Frank Gehry total fraud.
