The\u00a0sixth international conference \u2013 in the format of a study day associated\u00a0with the upcoming autumn exhibition \u2013 will focus on the Murano\u00a0artist <strong>Vittorio Zecchin<\/strong> (1878-1947).<\/p>\n<p>After graduating from Venice fine\u00a0art school, Zecchin soon stood out for his impatience with the late\u00a019th-century verista culture and, on the contrary, his interest in some of the new ideas stemming\u00a0from the Venice Biennale, which led him to pursue research into Symbolism and the works of\u00a0the Middle-European avant-gardes. Having taken part in the intense season of exhibitions with\u00a0Ca\u2019 Pesaro as a driving force in Venice (at this time he made and showed tapestries, embroidery\u00a0and enamelled glass), Zecchin came into contact and collaborated with various people active\u00a0in the city, such as the painter Teodoro Wolf Ferrari and the glassmakers Artisti Barovier. In his\u00a0prominent role as artistic director of Cappellin Venini (1921-1925) and then M.V.M. Cappellin\u00a0&amp; C. (from 1926), he designed glass with an innovative impact and original refinements without\u00a0ever neglecting research into the stylisation of form.<\/p>\n<p>The papers at the conference will focus\u00a0on a variety of topics dealing with Zecchin\u2019s experience and inventive skills, while also exploring\u00a0the associated themes and fields in which he was active. Starting from the Venetian background,\u00a0the following subjects will be addressed: his personal approach to the decorative arts (including\u00a0a comparison with the Italian and international scene), the close relationship between painting,\u00a0glass and the world of the applied arts in general, and his presence at the major events of the\u00a0time, such as the Biennial Exhibitions at Monza from 1923 to 1927.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Programma-Zecchin.pdf\">DOWNLOAD THE PROGRAMME<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56797,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"cini_tax_event_categories":[1594,1465],"cini_tax_institutes":[34,22,1421],"cini_tax_event_locations":[1464],"class_list":["post-57167","cini_events","type-cini_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cini_tax_event_categories-convegni-e-seminari-2","cini_tax_event_categories-meetings","cini_tax_institutes-institute-of-art-history","cini_tax_institutes-istituto-di-storia-dellarte","cini_tax_institutes-le-stanze-del-vetro-en","cini_tax_event_locations-island-of-san-giorgio-maggiore"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>International Conference Vittorio Zecchin 1878-1947.
