Maria Grazia Rosin was born in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy. She studied at Cortina’s Institute of Arts and went on to study under the guidance of Emilio Vedova at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, where she graduated in 1983. In 1992 she began collaborating with the Master glassblowers in Murano, producing her first glass artworks. This experience led her to broaden the visionary bi-dimensional concepts she had explored in her large scale paintings and embrace the three-dimensional potential that glass offered. Today, glass is the focus of her uniquely probing experimentation. Rosin’s work has been featured in numerous personal and group shows since 1982 and forms part of the permanent collections at the Corning Museum of Glass, New York; Indianapolis Museum of Art; Montreal Museum of Fine Art; Kunst Museum, Dusseldorf; Museo del Vetro, Murano.
