Berengo Studio is a glass studio transforming the art of glass and glass art through collaborations with contemporary artists based in Murano, Venice, Italy. Berengo Studio was established in 1989 by Adriano Berengo, a Venetian entrepreneur whose goal was to renovate the tradition of Murano glass by crossbreeding it with the global culture of contemporary art. Berengo took inspiration from the work of Egidio Costantini and his Fucina degli Angeli, where in the 1960s artists such as Picasso, Chagall and Lucio Fontana came to work with glass. He began by inviting contemporary artists to work on the island and collaborate with the glass maestros to create sculptures in glass, one of his first major collaborations was with the Austrian painter Kiki Kogelnik. “I think what [Adriano Berengo] did is exceptionally brilliant. The idea, the concept is so strong,” Ai Weiwei once noted in an interview with TL Mag. “He believes in contemporary expression, but at the same time tries to develop this old technique into a new language … I’m a contemporary artist, but I am always learning and working with tradition.” More information...
