Contemporary Italian Art Glass
Curated by Jean Blanchaert
Triennale Milano, 5th May - 22th August 2021Contemporary Italian Art Glass
A selection of over 60 original works in glass created by 36 artists, artisan/artists and designers, from Italy and abroad, who have a deep and often passionate relationship with Italian glass. The works presented are an expression of the multiple forms that glass can assume, of the great imagination of the artists and designers and of the extraordinary mastery of the artisans: differing from one another in technique, aesthetics and function, they reflect the wide variety of contemporary creativity in the handling of the material, from sculpture to lighting, from figurative works to stained glass. An artistic vision and a manual know-how to be preserved and promoted so that the arts and crafts will still be able to speak the language of the contemporary world
