Murano Illumina il Mondo 2025

Murano glass returns to illuminate St. Mark’s Square with the third edition of Murano Illumina il Mondo, the exhibition project that shines a spotlight on the Island of Murano through the successful partnership between glassmaking and contemporary art. The initiative is promoted and organized by the City of Venice and The Venice Glass Week, with the financial support of the Pentagram Stiftung and the Venice Rovigo Chamber of Commerce, through its Special Agency “Opportunità e Mercati.”

Throughout the winter season, from 21 November 2025 to 1 March 2026, twelve magnificent chandeliers—created through collaborations between internationally renowned artists and some of the most prestigious Murano glass furnaces—will light up every evening in the world’s most beautiful “living room,” beneath the arches of the Procuratie Vecchie in St. Mark’s Square. The selected artists were invited to reinterpret an everyday object, the chandelier, together with some of Murano’s most talented master glassmakers, celebrated for their extraordinary technical skills, centuries-old techniques, and innovative experimentation.

“Inside/Outside”

Ru Xiao Fan

Masters Cristiano and Ivano Ferro, Master Gianni Seguso, Effetre with Seguso Gianni

Ru Xiao Fan, together with Effetre and Seguso Gianni, gives life to Inside/Outside, a chandelier shaped like a cage in which some birds remain imprisoned while others take flight. The work reflects on the choice between safety and freedom, evoking the myth of Eden and the “invisible cages” of the present: leaving behind the illusion of protection requires courage, but only those who dare to take risks can discover the true meaning of flight.
