About the Item
Marre Moerel Signed and Numbered Limited Edition "Gluteus" Murano Glass Vase for Covo, Italy, ca 2001. This vase is part of her Anatomy Series and is numbered #5 of 29. The glass is a deep purple color (eggplant or wine) cased with white glass sandwiched with a pink/clear glass on the interior.
Marre has said that the shapes were in reference to the beauty of the human body and colors chosen to reflect the variety of skin tones. Highly evocative and intriguing, this design is beautiful and also evokes conversation and thought. A true piece of art!
This sculpture is part of a project named Smash, and curated by Emmanuel Babled for Covo in 2001. A group of famous designers (James Irvine, Jeffrey Bennet, Jerszy Seymour, Marre Moerel, Richard Hutten, Ritsue Mishima, Stefano Giovannoni, Stephen Burks and Emmanuel Babled) were commissioned to design a limited edition series of handblown glass objects. The purpose of the project was to reinvent Murano Glass, which at that moment had the reputation of being outdated and somewhat kitsch, although of incredible workmanship.
Note that this listing is for one of the glass pieces shown in the set of three group photo. The other listings are available in separate listings here on 1stDibs.
Condition is very good with no cracks, chips, or noticeable scratches. There are two internal air bubbles as shown. Occasional small imperfections are the result of the craft manufacturing process, and expresses the originality of the product.

COVO - With the strength of aesthetic tradition which combines the concept of elegance with that of simplicity, COVO, Italian DNA and international roots, has made itself the perfect interpreter of these two terms developing an autonomous and distinctive language, capable of marrying tradition and contemporaneity classicism and avant-garde design. With its first steps through the severity of form and signs exported from Orient, it gives character to its products while at the same time remaining faithful to its origins, enriching them progressively with new and constant stimulation from the world of design. With and sensitive eye, it directs and manages research that ranges from the skilful uses of materials to the giving body to the voices of designers, permitting itself an occasion to go with an ironic spirit into the field of experimentation, without overstepping the limit into useless showmanship. The fantasy of form and attention to materials become the protagonists and the final product shines with a fresh and extremely personal aesthetic without sacrificing functionally. A strong identity founded on a primary need of feasibility, a harmonious marriage of form and content, a brand capable of seducing and conquering the attention of an ever more vast public thanks to the unceasing search for a point of balance, in real and not apparent terms. -Source: COVO
