Fulvio BIANCONI

Early in his career, Bianconi worked as a painter and illustrator before turning to industrial design. He was first hired by the famous Italian glass company Venini in 1946. It was here that he began experimenting with hand-blown glass, which became his signature as a designer.

Bianconi created hundreds of glass designs for Venini, ranging from vases and glass sculptures to lamps and tableware. His creations were often characterized by bold, organic shapes, inspired by nature and abstract elements. His innovative designs helped redefine the aesthetics of hand-blown glass and were widely acclaimed around the world.

In addition to his work with Venini, Bianconi also collaborated with other major Italian companies, including Rosenthal, Kartell and FontanaArte. He was recognized for his experimental approach to design and his ability to push the limits of the materials he worked with.

Fulvio Bianconi received numerous awards and distinctions during his career, including the prestigious Compasso d'Oro in 1954 and 1956. His creations are exhibited in numerous museums and art galleries around the world.

He died on June 21, 1996 in Milan, but his legacy as a visionary and innovative designer continues to influence the world of design today. Fulvio Bianconi's creations remain emblematic examples of twentieth-century Italian design.
