Studio Forme
Studio Forme was founded in 1973 by Rita Rivelli and Giorgio Funara. Initially, the workshop was involved in the production and restoration of stained glass windows. The studio quickly expanded and now features an ever-changing assortment of objects made of glass, ceramics and other materials. Products range from tableware to house decor, items such as candlesticks, lamps, plaster and acrylic resin moldings, as well as glass sculptures.
The main part of the production is centered on the creation of glass vases with the most varied colours, shapes and techniques because they meet one of the workshop’s criteria: the continuous research and study of historical and contemporary techniques but also and above all the experimentation with materials, combinations and shapes that are always innovative.
We will start by first visiting the workshop guided by an English-speaking employee and then visit the store across the street.
When: Wednesday, February 5, 11:00 am
Where: Via di Santa Cecilia, 15
RSVP to Barbara Gurawska at barbara.gurawska@gmail.com. Maximum 15 attendees.
