Об исполнителе:
Fulvio Bianconi (1915-1996) was an Italian Murano glass artist. Born on August 27, 1915 in Padua, Italy, Bianconi fostered an early interest in caricature drawing, leading him to seek artistic training at the Istituto Statale d’Arte Carmini. The artist continued his studies in Venice at the Accademia de Belle Arte, apprenticing at the Murano glass-making facilities by the time he was 16. Throughout his career, Bianconi worked as a graphic designer in tandem with his artistic glasswork, which afforded him financial independence and the freedom to create humorous, topical pieces. The artist gained visibility participating in the 1948 Biennale. Bianconi died on May 14, 1996 in Milan, Italy. [Quoted, in part, from www.artnet.com.]
