TWO HOT NEW ARTISTS

Afro Celotto : Italian Glass Artist

Chasen Galleries has recently added to our collection the magnificent works of Italian glass artist, Afro Celotto.

Born in Venice, Italy in 1963, Afro Celotto started working with glass when he was only 14 years old, apprenticing with the legendary Lino Tagliapietra. During his 12 years as first assistant to Lino Tagliapietra, Afro had the opportunity to learn from one of the greatest living glass masters. Since these early years Afro has been producing some of the world’s most beautiful art glass.

Even though he is considered a “youngster” in the world of glass blowing, Afro is quickly becoming recognized by collectors for his technical ability and artistic expression.

Recently, Afro Celotto, with two talented friends, Luca Vidal and Carlo Tagliapietra, has opened his own studio. For many years previously, Afro worked within the old tradition where great glass masters executed the designs of others.

In this new century, he has moved beyond excellence in execution and now finally feels free to devote his attention and focus to his own artistic expression and unique works.

Emanuel Mattini

Chasen Galleries is delighted to introduce you to a new artist with us: Emanuel Mattini.

Emanuel Mattini is an artist strongly influenced by music. His figurative works are melodies performed in textured forms - brilliant in color, exciting in design. His works metamorphose music into art, art into human expression, human expression into the rhythm of life. The quiet play of sound, the expression of scale relating to the yin and yang of color and motion reflect in his life as well as his art. His art has a freshness of style and approach, a blend of the modern with the ancient, reflecting an age of quality — quality of meaning and of image.
