Giochi di sponda: una collezione di vetro contemporaneo = Double act : a contemporary glass collection

di Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti

This volume documents a rare collection of works from the International Studio Glass movement that arose in the 1950s, signaling a major revival of the craft. Housed in Venice, Italy at the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, the collection - assembled between 1990 and 2020 - features 146 glass works created by 54 artists from Venice, as well as several international locations: academies in Bohemia, European research centers and the studio-furnaces of American, Canadian and Australian artists. The volume serves as a visual record of this remarkable collection, highlighting the friendship between the gallerist and collector, united by a shared passion for glass. (Quelle: artbook.com)
