Maestro Elio Quarisa worked for years at the finest glass factories in
Murano. In his "retirement," he taught glass at schools throughout the
world. A well-loved instructor at The Studio, Elio inspired hundreds of
artists through his works and instruction. After his death in 2010, a
scholarship fund was created by Elio's friends and students to
supportfurnace glassworkers who shared his passion for Venetian
glassblowing.
In Elio's memory, Roberto Donà, proprieter of
<http://www.carlodona.com/english/products/products.html> Carlo Donà, maker
of fine Venetian glassworking tools and important friend of Elio, has
generously donated a set of 14 of tools to The Studio to be presented to an
artist who learned from, or was inspired by, Elio. These tools will help an
artist continue Elio's tradition of Venetian glassblowing.
Those interested in participating may submit one entry with their personal
information, a statement about how they were influenced by Elio (either in
person or by his work), and up to three images of their own work. The images
and statements may be added to this page below. The deadline for submissions
is December 1st. Submissions will be reviewed shortly thereafter and the
tools will be presented to the chosen winner.
Special thanks to Roberto Donà for making and donating these tools in Elio's
memory.
