Loredano Rosin Acidato Alessandrite Glass Of A Female Figure, 1960s

About the Item

This exquisite piece of art captures the ethereal beauty of femininity through the unique lens of Loredano's craftsmanship. The glass figure, meticulously crafted in a rich alessandrite hue, shifts in color under different lighting, embodying the delicate interplay between light and shadow. The figure is elegantly poised, showcasing intricate details that reflect the artist's mastery of form and texture. The Artist: Loredano Rosin was an Italian sculptor best known for his traditional use of Murano glass to depict stylized figures and animals. By employing an ancient Italian technique from Calcedonia, he used silver nitrate to create subtle color striations in his figurines. Rosin worked as a master glass blower for Salviati & Company, where he notably collaborated with artists such as Pablo Picasso and Marc Chagall in realizing their vision in glass. Born in 1936 in Venice, Italy, he studied with Romano Zanelli and Cocui Saor as a teenager before establishing his own studio, where he worked with his brothers Mirko and Dino Rosin. Today, his works are held in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, among others. The artist died in 1992 in Venice, Italy. The Technique: Utilizing the ancient method of acid etching, Loredano creates a tactile surface that invites viewers to engage with the piece. The alessandrite glass, known for its rarity and color-changing properties, adds an additional layer of allure. This technique not only enhances the visual appeal but also emphasizes the sensual contours of the figure, making it a true standout in any collection. Why You Must Buy This Piece: Owning this Loredano creation means more than just acquiring a beautiful object; it represents a connection to a master artist’s vision and skill. This piece is a conversation starter, a statement of sophistication, and an investment in art that transcends time. Whether displayed in a gallery, a home, or an office, it is sure to captivate and inspire admiration from all who encounter it. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of contemporary art history that combines elegance, innovation, and a touch of magic.
