Description

Where contemporary art meets the millennium-old glassmaking techniques. The Palazzo Grimani Museum in Venice opens its doors to contemporary art with the exhibition In Grimani, a collateral event of the Venice Biennale featuring the glass sculptures by Ritsue Mishima. Born in Kyoto and resident in Venice, Mishima has bound her personal artistic research to the thousand-year-old techniques of glassmaking. Using exclusively transparent material, which does not interrupt the flow of light but gathers and contains all the other colors, the artist expresses herself in a contemporary language steeped in the artisan culture of the Murano master glassmakers who "forge" her ideas.
