Description
MASSIMO MICHELUZZI MURANO GLASS POLIEDRO ABSTRACT SCULPTURES 2025

Etched signature on underside
Massimo Micheluzzi (1957) uses traditional techniques to achieve a uniquely modern aesthetic. He is one of very few contemporary Muranese artists to successfully employ classic murrina and battuto techniques for a disciplined, sober vision.
Reserved forms and color palates, mostly mono or dichromatic, backdrop the fluid movement of his surface carving. Indelibly intertwined with life on these watery islands.

POLIEDRO is a striking fusion of geometric precision and raw materiality. With its flawless polyhedral shape and matte black surface, it evokes the strength of stone while exuding understated sophistication. Crafted from molten glass, the piece is shaped in the furnace and then cold-ground to emphasize its angular edges and textured surface. The result is a dynamic, tactile work where light interacts with the irregularities, giving it a powerful, almost primal energy. His modern designs and ancient techniques bridge old and new, tradition and innovation.
Born in Venice in 1957, Micheluzzi studied art history at Ca' Foscari, the University of Venice. Introduced to the world of glass by the Venini family, in 1993 he began collaborating with Laura de Santillana, granddaughter of Paolo Venini. Within a few years, he was producing works of his own, and in 1998 he had his first exhibition in Milan. Since then, he has exhibited in cities all over the world, including Paris, New York, London, Rotterdam, and Kanazawa, Japan. Amber Poliedro 7” x 5”

Message from Seller:

Pavilion is the collective vision of Deborah Colman and Neil Kraus, both graduates of the master of fine arts program at the Art Institute of Chicago. From a longstanding interest in art and design, frequent buying trips to France and Italy have influenced the direction of the gallery to offer items that are not easily sourced in Chicago and United States. Postwar design has been the focus for 18 yrs and we also look forward to new design that crosses boundaries and dialogues as well to the past
