The Tese of the Arsenale Nord in Venice open for four days to welcome master artisans, not only from Venice but also from various Italian regions: 7,000 square meters of space become a privileged showcase to admire and purchase works of original design and high craftsmanship. The event is also an opportunity to discover the creative process behind each individual piece through a program of workshops and live demonstrations. Additionally, it serves as a moment to reflect on the future of this sector of excellence, its sustainability, and the new perspectives balanced between tradition and innovation through conferences, discussions, and in-depth analyses.
The range of represented categories expands: beyond jewelry and accessory creation, sculptures and artistic works, furniture and furnishings, bookbinding and paper crafting, lighting and metalworking, marble and stone crafting, glass art, lace and weaving, artistic and conservation restoration, artistic coatings, violin making, haute couture, papier-mâché crafting, this year will also feature piano manufacturing, umbrellas, footwear, writing instruments, hats, artistic fireplaces, and leather goods. A grand showcase, therefore, to highlight the journey that transforms a material – noble or otherwise – into a true masterpiece.
