Lucio Bubacco has earned international respect for his sensuous works combining the anatomic perfection of Greek and Roman sculpture with the Byzantine gothic architecture of his native Venice. He focuses on large freestanding sculpture with incredible detail. He also combines large, cast glass forms with delicate flameworked figures to make scenes from mythology and express his fantasies.
"Bubacco's work combines virtuoso techniques and a theatrical narrative closely aligned to choreography. It is theatrical and lighthearted withal the magic of ballet or musical theater." (Author Dan Klein, Artists in Glass)
