Where: UrbanGlass Studio
647 Fulton Street

Join us to watch the legendary glass artist Lino Tagliapietra create work in
UrbanGlass' new studios. With his team of world-class assistants
Tagliapietra will make his newest creation for our live audience. 

On May 3, from 10 am to 1 pm, Lino Tagliapietra will demonstrate his mastery
of the material in the UrbanGlass studios. That evening, from 7 to 10 pm
Lino will return for a birthday cocktail party. Join us to toast this
incredible artist and support UrbanGlass' commitment to the next generation
of great artists.

One of the world's most prolific glass artists and teachers, Tagliapietra
has been influential in the introduction of Venetian techniques to artists
around the world. Born on Murano, he began working in the island's glass
factories and, following a career with many of Venice's most important
companies, embarked on his own artistic practice.

Tagliapietra's work is held in museum collections around the world; in 2009
a retrospective of his work was presented at the Smithsonian American Art
Museum, the Chrysler Museum of Art, and the Palm Springs Art Museum. A
member of UrbanGlass' Board, this will be the first time Tagliapietra will
work in our state of the art new facility.
