Exhibition presents the largest and only collection of luxury Venetian Baroque masks handcrafted from paper mâché and ceramic. The masks are decorated with materials, such as authentic plume feathers, gold and silver leaf, carnival Swarovski crystals and pearls.
It is a combined workshop and a museum is managed by Edmond Angoni, an Albanian craftsman who immigrated to Italy in the 90s to master the Venetian mask art. He has made a successful career designing masks for numerous films and productions, the most famous is Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut in 1999. Because of the fact that each mask is treated as a unique piece of art, the sheer originality and quality of these works has contributed to increase the popularity of this factory worldwide.
