On the occasion of

The Venice Glass Week

2020, Zuecca Projects is glad to present the exhibition “Man in the Glass” by Marcin Gierat, curated by Marica Denora and Alessandro Possati. The exhibition will be hosted at Squero Castello, from September 5 to October 10, 2020.

Involving in the project a selection of historical and prestigious furnaces from Murano – Barovier&Toso, NasonMoretti, Schiavon Art Team – Polish artist Marcin Gierat has created a photographic series that celebrates the great artisanal tradition of Murano glass-makers: a series of portraits of the masters, directly captured on glass plates made by them.
Through the Wet-Collodion process, an early photographic technique, and the use of a camera from the XIX Century, Gierat realizes his pictures on glass plates, instead of photographic film. The result is a unique work that can’t be reproduced.
