The furnaces
The works of the Fucina are born, with few exceptions, in the furnaces of Murano: Egidio does not own one, and there he guides the master glassmaker’s hand with his voice and his eyes. Here, on 18 April 1953, the first group exhibition of the Centro Studio Pittori nell’Arte del Vetro opens. In 1981 misunderstandings and jealousies in the Murano world lead him to work on the mainland.
