"Lino Tagliapietra,the internationally renowned glassmaker and designer has had a significant influence on glassmaking worldwide.  While insular and secretive attitudes have marked the Muranese glass industry for centuries,he has always encouraged the free exchange of ideas.  Mr. Tagliapietra is able to interpret and translate concepts into hot glass that would be impossible without his extraordinary abilities...""                                   -- Suzanne K. Frantz,Curator of 20th Century Glass,The Corning Museum of GlassThe concept of the exchange of ideas is very evident in Bilbao (6) which is part of a series of sculptures Tagliapietra did in 2000 titled Incanto di Bilbao based on inspiration from Frank Gehry’s magnificent design for the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao Spain.   Lino Tagliapietra stated “the forms and shapes of the architecture have inspired me to create this new series following a similar philosophy.  I hope that I have succeeded in capturing this link and thus my motivation for calling this series Bilbao”."
