Dino Rosin
DINO ROSIN—Born in Venice in 1948, Dino Rosin was taken by his family while still an infant to live on Murano, the glass-producing island in the Venice lagoon. At age 12 Rosin began work as an apprentice at one of the island's oldest and most renowned glass factories. His love for glass working gave him the chance to quickly earn a reputation. In 1988, Rosin was invited to demonstrate his way of working molten glass at the Pilchuck Glass School in Washington State that was founded by Dale Chihuly. It is a collaboration that Dino Rosin has kept up ever since. Rosin's work is carried in only the finest galleries in the world and he is considered one of the most skilled glass artists working today.
