This review is from: Lino Tagliapietra in Retrospect: A Modern Renaissance in Italian Glass [With DVD] (Hardcover)
Having seen the exhibit of Tagliapietra's work at the Tacoma Glass Museum I was impressed enough to get the book which is very well done. A bonus is the CD that comes with it which shows the artist at work. Excellent biography and amazing insights into the glass blowing process as well as stunning photos from is body of work.

This review is from: Lino Tagliapietra in Retrospect: A Modern Renaissance in Italian Glass [With DVD] (Hardcover)
In glass-blowing art, Lino Tagliapietra is the master. While having seen other beautiful pieces from other artists, I can only conclude that Lino's work is a level above. The book is great because it shows all pieces from the traveling exhibition throughout different museums. I had the chance to visit the exhibition in PAlm Springs. What a delight!As for the Amazon delivery, it was perfect. And mind you the price difference as well. Great purchase.

This review is from: Lino Tagliapietra in Retrospect: A Modern Renaissance in Italian Glass [With DVD] (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful book that highlights Tagliapietra's work.The unexpected bonus was a DVD included at the back of the book, that demonstrates how many of the glassworks were made. For people who love glass (i.e., Chihuly fans, etc.), you'll love this book and DVD.

The dvd alone is worth it,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Lino Tagliapietra in Retrospect: A Modern Renaissance in Italian Glass [With DVD] (Hardcover)
This is a great coffee table book of Lino's work, but the dvd that comes with it is really the keeper as it is a wonderfully done testimony to his influence, genius and his lack of ego and great heart. I am a glass blower/artist myself, and simply can't rave on enough about how the dvd documentarey provides added value by virtue of historical context, but more importantly showing Lino as a man of great kindness, passion and humility. A nice contrast to the 'rock start' mentality in the hyper-competative glass art scene...

A good book for people who are interested in Tagliapietra's work in glass.This book also points out how important Tagliapietra was and is in teachings of glass techniques not know throughout the modern world.
