The exhibition aims to deepen the knowledge of glass, a fascinating material little represented in museum collections, through the juxtaposition of archaeological finds with works of art from various contexts, near or very far in space and time.
Caterina Tognon participates in this new project with glass works by Maria Grazia Rosin, Richard Marquis and Yoichi Ohira.
Vitrum was born from the collaboration with the Superintendence of Archeology, Fine Arts and Landscape for the metropolitan city of Turin, and was realised with the contribution of Fondazione Guelpa, Fondazione CRT and Piemonte Region. It is also patronized by Association Internationale pour l’Histoire du Verre – Comitato Nazionale Italiano.
The works of Cristiano Bianchin and Maria Grazia Rosin are now exhibited within the Franzoia-Nasci Glass Collection at Galleria d’Arte Moderna «Carlo Rizzarda» in Feltre.
In 2018 Architect Ferruccio Franzoia donated to the Municipality of Feltre the precious designer glasses of the Collection he created with his wife: nearly 800 pieces, ranging from the 18th century to the contemporary, are now added to the wrought iron masterpieces of Carlo Rizzarda.
The Collection especially focuses on Murano production and, in particular, on the great "creatives" of glass such as Vittorio Zecchin, Giuseppe Borovier, Napoleone Martinuzzi, Paolo Venini, Carlo Scarpa, Toni Zuccheri, and many others.
This is the first project in the “Mestieri d’Arte e Design: Crafts Culture” series, which has emerged from a partnership with the Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d’Arte. An exhibition devoted to the excellence of Milanese arts and crafts, creating a fascinating dialogue between pieces by contemporary masters and some significant works from the Renaissance.
