Summary
"A journey into the art of fire through more than 250 pieces of art glass from the 20th century Murano glass collection that Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu have assembled over years of study. This book offers the reader an excursion into the history of Venetian glass from 1900 until today: the most significant period of Muranese glass." "The essays in the book are written by Marino Barovier, David Revere McFadden and Suzanne K. Frantz. World class experts in the field of glass and decorative arts, each explains various aspects of Venetian Glass, from its history to a discussion on collectors and collecting to the remarkable relationship between the glassblower and the designer. Renown artists/designers share their personal insights: Alfredo Barbini, Cristiano Bianchin, Laura Diaz de Santillana, Benjamin Moore, Yoichi Ovhira, Tobia Scarpa, Thomas Stearns, Lino Tagliapietra, Massimo Vignelli and Toots Zynsky."--BOOK JACKET.
