Carlo Scarpa Rare ceiling light, model no. 5258 1931-1935 Filigrana glass, tubular copper, copper. 128 cm (50 3/8 in.) drop, 45.7 cm (17 7/8 in.) diameter Produced by Venini, Italy.
Literature Franco Deboni, Venini Glass, Its history, artists and techniques, Volume 1, Turin, 2007, pl. 142 Artist Bio Carlo Scarpa Italian • 1906 - 1978 Phillips Design has a deep-rooted passion for the work of Carlo Scarpa one of the twentieth century's great poets, whose rhythms, lines and materials — a grammar of space — appeal both as a local response to the architect's birth city, Venice, and a universal language of ordered dynamism. Carlo Scarpa graduated with a degree in architectural drawing from the Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice in 1926. In the years that followed, he worked as a teaching assistant for a former professor, ran his own architectural practice in Venice and worked as a freelance artist for M.V.M. Cappellin glassworks. When M.V.M. Cappellin went bankrupt in 1932, Scarpa joined Venini & C. in Murano, where he served as artistic director until 1947. During his tenure at Venini, Scarpa developed a host of new techniques — in particular, mezza filigrano, a bollicine and corroso — that catapulted the centuries-old tradition of Venetian glassblowing to the forefront of modernist design.
