In this conversation, Mara Sartore meets David Landau, founder of Le Stanze del Vetro. Landau discusses his relationship with Venice and his work in art history, publishing, and cultural initiatives. He recalls his first arrival in the city and his later decision to settle there after a career in London. His engagement with Murano glass led to the creation of Le Stanze del Vetro, the Centro Studi del Vetro, and The Venice Glass Week, initiatives aimed at reassessing glass within contemporary cultural discourse. The interview also explores the future of Murano, craftsmanship in Venice, and the role of cultural institutions in the city’s development.
