The second edition of „The Transparent Breath” will be held in Venice at the historic Nani Mocenigo Palace from August 31st to September 24th on the occasion of The Venice Glass Week. The event is promoted by the Cultural Association Arte Design Venezia.
The Transparent Breath is the cultural event that celebrates the union between art, design and craftsmanship, with an emphasis on the talent and creativity of international artists who dedicate themselves to the creation of unique jewelry using glass as the main medium. This exhibition offers the public a detailed overview of the world of glass jewelry. The exhibition will host the creations of 20 selected artists from different parts of the world, each of which will bring with it a unique artistic vision and unique technical skills. The variety of expressive approaches represents a complete exploration of the possibilities that glass offers in the field of contemporary jewelry and the ornament.
Andres Bellovi-Agost Agapurni-Blown Glass-Necklace
The theme is The Transparent Breath, to evoke the lightness of the breath that shapes the glass jewelry. This action also recalls the act of giving life to matter using primordial elements such as fire, air and the ability of man. The city of Venice becomes the perfect setting to welcome these workers given the ancient glass tradition that the territory preserves. Thanks to the renewed collaboration with the prestigious Nani Mocenigo Palace, the second edition will take place in an evocative setting, enriched by the millennial history of the palace and its works of art. Visitors will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the aesthetics of the exhibited jewels perfectly integrated with the charming atmosphere of the exhibition venue.
