"Emmanuel Babled Toys Unit, megalit, genetic"

A personal exhibition, devoted to the glass designer Emmanuel Babled (1967), one of the most important and internationally well known artist of our time, will be held in the showroom of Palazzetto Tito in Venice. The works belong to a series, the title of which is ''TOYS'', made exclusively by the famous glassworks firm VENINI. Three different type of objects are on display. Although they are aesthetically and formally very different one from another, they have all been made using the old way of making glass but with particular attention to contemporary culture. The series known as Genetic has references to the fast genetic evolution : veins, arteries, body organs that can take the form of human intervention . The series known as Unita' has a constant reference to architecture, namely to the artificial structures that man create to hold itself : even a building is like a pot , a machine that garantues a flux of way in and way out presences. The series known as Megalit shows the ''pot idea'' in its size limit and in its semantic revisitation. This exhibition shows the great capacity and modernistic refined way used by Babled in working such a difficult and fragile material as glass.

Opening hours: 12.00 a.m./6.00 p.m. Closed on Tuesday.

Cini Foundation offers an extraordinary occasion to study in depth the comical side of Tiepolos' art through the exhibition of more than 50 drawings by Giambattista Tiepolo and his son Giandomenico Tiepolo. All of them are caricatures of common caracters such as priests, nobles, famous singers and the famous mask Pulcinella that soon became an obsession for both artists, father and son, becoming the symbol of fantastic of the real world for Giambattista Tiepolo and an instrument to denounce the fall of ideals for Giandomenico. Among paintings brought here we like to mention the Giambattista Tiepolo's Punchinello's kitchen, a masterpiece considered lost for many years recently found in an english castle.

With this project, the Trenitalia group renovates its renowned tradition in italian railway architecture.

Another thirty more projects made by architects who participated to international contests are present in the exhibition . You can see architectural works shown through multivisions , video sections and multimedial appliances. By means of these instruments the relationship between contermporary architecture , transport functionality, railway engineering and territory is highly emphasized. On the whole , the exhibition points out the role of the railway station that can be considered one of the ''non-places'' of our time , transit and exchange territory, and at the same time a place with a strong territorial and local identity, that is an architectural and technological entity related to the territory and the environment.
