Murano, an island whose history of glass dates back to 1291, provided Lino with the perfect educational environment to hone his craft. At the age of 12, Lino was apprenticed by the glass maestro Archimede Seguso. Nine years later, at age 21, he himself had earned the rank of maestro. For the next 25 years, he worked in association with several of Murano's top glass factories. Lino's influence to the American art glass studio movement is primarily attributed to his friend Dale Chihuly. In 1979, Lino came to the United States to teach at the Pilchuck Glass Studio in Washington. This marked the beginning of knowledge sharing among the American glass artists and the Italian maestros, who in the past had guarded their techniques as valuable trade secrets.The first exhibition to honor his work, Lino Tagliapietra in Retrospect: A Modern Renaissance in Italian Glass is presently being shown at the Smithsonian American Art Museum's Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C. It will also appear at the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk, Virginia; the Palm Springs Art Museum in Palm Springs, California; and the Museum of Arts and Design in New York.Condition Report: Overall in excellent condition.Shipping: Requires 3rd Party Shipping (view shipping information)Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary.
