We are very pleased for this special opportunity to present these works from the archives of Maestro Lino Tagliapietra.
Several of these works represent the few remaining in a particular series. Some of these works have been included in museum exhibitions during the past two decades. These include the Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk, VA; Museum of Glass Tacoma, WA; the Flint Institute of Arts, MI; Palm Springs Art Museum, Palm Springs, CA; and the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C.
Additionally, the three museum exhibits which Schantz Galleries helped support, include the Bergstrom Mahler Museum of Glass, Neenah WI; Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts, AL, and the Morris Museum of Art, Morristown, NJ. It is true, that it would take another museum retrospective to bring the full oeuvre of his work to date into the broadest possible perspective, however, we have made this effort to share a collection of works from 1995 - 2016. We are honored to represent Lino Tagliapietra and hope you will enjoy this presentation.
