Bio

Victor Trabucco began working with glass in 1974.
Glass is the ultimate challenge; it has properties of no other material and offers the artist possibilities that are inspiring for the creative process. As technical problems are solved, it offers the artist more latitude for artistic expression. With over 40 years of working with the material I am as excited with glass as I was when I started.

The works are considered among the most outstanding and creative glass in the world today occupying prominent places in the most distinguished collections of Heads of State, Professional Athletes, Major Corporations, and Stars of stage and screen. Examples of the work are displayed in the The Corning Museum of Glass, American Glass Museum, The Royal Ontario Museum, The Chicago Art Institute, The Bergstrom Art Center, and Japan’s Kobe Lampwork Glass Museum.

Trabucco is an instructor for the Studio at the Corning Museum of Glass and served as technical Advisors to Steuben Glass.
