Colpo di Vento: un dialogo tra l’artista Kimiko Yoshida e il maestro artigiano di Murano Gianni Seguso

Event organised by Fondation Valmont

Giordana Naccari, member of the Scientific Committee of the exhibition "Murano Illuminates the World", organized by The Venice Glass Week and the City of Venice, will moderate a conversation between artist Kimiko Yoshida and Murano master glassmaker Gianni Seguso.

The audience will discover how their collaboration resulted in the creation of a grand Rezzonico-style chandelier, currently on display at the Fondation Valmont in Venice.

Titled "Colpo di Vento", the artwork is featured in the exhibition "Penelope. Her Journeys", curated by Francesca Giubilei and Valentina Secco, which showcases the work of artists Gayle Chong Kwan, Stephanie Blake, and Kimiko Yoshida. The figure of Penelope becomes a free and creative voice: a woman who defies imposed roles, rewrites her own destiny, and transforms the myth into a contemporary narrative.
