GLASSTRESS 8½

 Fondazione Berengo and Berengo Studio are proud to announce GLASSTRESS 8½ the eighth edition of the internationally acclaimed exhibition of contemporary art in glass. 

To celebrate 35 years of Berengo Studio the biennial exhibition returns to Murano where it all began, with a series of new artworks by new artists debuting in the Fondazione Berengo Art Space. Curated by Umberto Croppi the 8th edition also features a special project – the ½ – with installations by the Belgian artist Koen Vanmechelen and the Austrian artist Sabine Wiedenhofer on display within the Tesa 99 of the Arsenale Nord in Venice.

For an extra edition of the exhibition it feels only fitting to have an extra opening!

Join us for a double bill of openings this April. First on the 17th of April at the Tesa 99 and later in Murano where it all began on the 19th of April. For the official invitation to both openings stay tuned… we’ll be releasing more details here soon.
