The Hopi masks: the shamanic glass by Alessandro Trambaioli
For the Venice Glass Week 2023, Atelier Muranese is pleased to present the new works by Alessandro Trambaioli: The Hopi masks.
For the umpteenth time the artist demonstrates how curiosity towards the other is able to generate innovative interpretations of Murano glass culture.
Inspired by Hopi shaman masks, a native-american indigenous population present nowadays in Arizona, the artist recreates a metaphysical and surprising work collection.
Through glass master Mario Furlan’s expertise, vivid colors and complex shapes compose mithological figures.
Every figure corresponds to a specific spiritual entity which, in Hopi culture, identifies an ethical spirit or function: symbolic depictions are pursued through a shared and peaceful vision of the world.
From 9th to 17th of September 2023
Open from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm
