This is amazing, that so much of the process is available and filmed so well. I have no chance to go to New York, so thank you guys for making so much of this art available online.
The commentator sounds remarkably like Jim Parsons, I love Lino's work - Thanks for all that you do and have done for the history, Corning Museum of Glass.
Greg Scott pervy bookshop owners took the term from glassmakers. it was originally a hole in the furnace wall rather than a standalone piece of equipment. blame them not us.
Soothing relaxation to watch great workmanship. Never thought I would be watching maestros working with glass for hours, new hobby maybe. Should go live some day.
Soy Argentina y de mi parte pediría que tradujeran los videos, ya que hay vocabulario específico que sería enriquecedor para nuestra evolución en el soplado de vidrio artístico. Graciassss...
as a flame worker myself, I truly enjoy watching this kind of work. it seems so much more involved and fulfilling. I love the team effort, though I do believe Lino should never have to raise his voice
I was thinking the same thing! Keeping that 10-12 lbs of glass spinning, in & out of the fire, keeping temperatures perfect, having a team of people working on keeping the furnace temp just so, people from getting burned by the heat (I think that's the purpose of those wood blocks?) Incredible!
+Julius Bernotas There's a very nice high-res image of this piece on our blog blog.cmog.org/2014/12/02/linotagliapietra-work-honors-former-director-david-whitehouse/ if you click on the image it will open larger and you can expand the image to full size to see all of the detail. We are now including a photo of the finished piece in the video when we can, but didn't yet have that process set up when this demo was filmed last year.
Thank you! That's impressive! It doesn't look anything like I expected. There were several times when the glass looked incredible along the way, although after seeing the finished product, my guess is that it would still look different than expected when blown & cooled? Beautiful process! Definitely gives an appreciation for the costs of art glass pieces! That's a lotta glass to keep moving, and a lotta weight! It's no wonder that it takes a team to make big pieces like this! Very impressive processes! Makes me wonder why we ever got rid of the old glass factories and went to plastics for regular products for food storage? Food has always tasted so much better in glass! We need to bring back these arts and glassware for the next generation! Incredible talent!
+Corning Museum of Glass, I realize I'm watching this a year after you posted this link but it does not work nor does the link to your blog in the description, which I tried 1st. Quite dissappointing, would have loved to see the finished piece as well. I did love watching the demontration & I'm thrilled to have discovered all of these great videos, I find it all very fascinting. Thank you so much for posting them.
Our blog site was temporarily experiencing technical difficulties, and is now back online. Check out the post here blog.cmog.org/2014/12/02/linotagliapietra-work-honors-former-director-david-whitehouse/
Is there a book or books, perhaps video(s) where one could find out more about the processes used, and how to do them? How to learn glass blowing in general? Studios that teach glassblowing, depression glass making, and other methods to create art & production glass methods? This isn't taught in nearly enough places! I'm in the western US, southern California. I would like to go to a workshop or class to learn how to create art glass items. I have a relative who collects sets of depression and art glass. This is an art that needs to come back! It is far better for the environment than plastics!
+50 Star Liberty Great questions! The Museum's Library subject guides list many great books and other resources on glassmaking libguides.cmog.org and for videos, our Glassmaking Process & Properties series is the best place to start. Here's the playlist ua-cam.com/play/PL05E3768228E2B5C4.html
+Peter Johnny Tenay No, melting requires very high temperatures, at least 2400 degrees Fahrenheit so a regular oven wouldn't get hot enough. Here's a video that explains more ua-cam.com/video/2xzf3Cgz99I/v-deo.html
+ameyy ramachandran No, it didn't break. Here's a photo of the final object blog.cmog.org/2014/12/02/linotagliapietra-work-honors-former-director-david-whitehouse/
The video was posted before the piece had finished annealing - to see the final piece, visit blog.cmog.org/2014/12/02/linotagliapietra-work-honors-former-director-david-whitehouse. Thanks for watching!
Ironically. I first learned the term in 1962 at Corning, which is when I fell in love with glass. More ironically, I am gay, was at Stonewall in '69, and took an odd different humorous pleasure in the "perversion of the term!
que cosa? 5 personas para un jarrón y algo así como una paloma en 1hr? no son artesanos. En Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico esto lo hace una persona, cuando mucho dos y son cosas bellas.
Not nearly as much as is leaking out of the ground in Chatsworth, CA (Porter Ranch). Perhaps if it catches fire again, it might create glass there? We should start calling Porter Ranch "The Glory Hole"! (If you're not familiar with the gas leak, search UA-cam for Porter Ranch Natural Gas Leak. There are lots of videos about the underground storage leak, evacuated homes, radiation concerns, nose bleeds, and so on)

I don't understand why you're trying to find excuses for their lapse in concentration. This is a time-critical job and they were daydreaming instead of following basic instructions. Two of them were even flirting by the damn furnace at one point. And most of them didn't even seem to want to be there, or were hung over or something. I know this because I'm a daydreamer and I like to party and drink, but I also know when to focus.
welll......then don't watch the video and watch another kind of art that you may appreciate and enjoy. Art is endless and comes in so many ways with their unique expression and impression 😊
22:17 Omg *stop saying it's very difficult. Nothing is very difficult.* Lino does it well because he mastered it, and not because of who he is. anyone with the knowledge can reproduce the same result if not better... you particularly find it difficult because you are a presenter maybe and not a glass crafter. he might find your job difficult too because he doesn't know as much about it as you do. So NO. it's not difficult 🙅.
T. Z. on his back he as way more of just his own experience and of all the master I got to view he's one teaching and keeping everybody respectfull on the glass. here you saw more history than a show.
The commentator is Bill Gudenrath, a master of the Venetian style of glass making. There are videos online teaching extremely difficult goblet making solo. Although I understand your point of experience being the deciding factor and not the act itself, there are things in glassblowing that are inherently harder to do than others due usually to having to fight the natural tendencies of the glass. I am a glassblower myself, and there are shapes that go against the natural tendency of glass inflation. Or times when you need to heat the part closest to the iron without the top distorting that goes against the natural heating process in the opposite direction. Lastly, if you think that handling that quantity of glass, upwards of 9kg, is not difficult, then I would highly contest you'r judgment.
This statement is ridiculous in so many ways. The shape, the colors, the patterns, and just the sheer scale all make this piece incredibly difficult, and there are very, very few people alive who would have a reasonable shot at it.
Now with sound!

+explosu Thanks for watching!
I have watched every video with lino at least three times. what a gentle soul i just love his work
Love watching Lino work...he's a confident perfectionist which is relaxing to watch, best I've seen.
at the age of 70 years lino has certainly become the greatest master glassmaker that murano has ever known!
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely beautiful and incredible to get to see there process and teamwork in creating these great glass pieces of art! Thank you for sharing!
a true master at work. thank you for sharing
The commentator sounds remarkably like Jim Parsons, I love Lino's work - Thanks for all that you do and have done for the history, Corning Museum of Glass.
BRAVO, É ESPETACULAR OS TRABALHOS DO SR. LINO…..👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖
This master commands real presence. Best I’ve seen. Thank you very much corning
Thanks for watching!
the finished piece is absolutely beautiful, I'm amazed
Don't know a thing about this, but I find it really interesting. Oven? Oast? Kiln? There has to be a better term than glory hole.
Greg Scott
pervy bookshop owners took the term from glassmakers. it was originally a hole in the furnace wall rather than a standalone piece of equipment. blame them not us.
No blame, Josh. Just a little funny, that's all.
lol it is hilarious how much sexual overtones are involved i must agree
Josh S Yes, and I really had no idea the term comes originally from glassmaking.
Greg Scott lol yeah history in language is a funny thing sometimes.
I'm watching this so i don't have to do homework, new level of procrastination
Soothing relaxation to watch great workmanship. Never thought I would be watching maestros working with glass for hours, new hobby maybe. Should go live some day.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏UM ESPETÁCULO O TRABALHO DO SR.LINO……EO RESPEITO QUE TODOS TEM POR ELE É ADMIRÁVEL 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oooh, he is a master. Beautiful design.
The fact the guy has a long sleeve shirt and a sweater on... you know he has spent his lifetime in such hot environments
Soy Argentina y de mi parte pediría que tradujeran los videos, ya que hay vocabulario específico que sería enriquecedor para nuestra evolución en el soplado de vidrio artístico. Graciassss...
This has been incredibly fascinating.
That's so beautiful!Thanks.
A joy to watch, thank you
Thank you for watching!
man i just enjoyed watching every minute of it great video
Thanks for watching!
Lino is amazing!
as a flame worker myself, I truly enjoy watching this kind of work. it seems so much more involved and fulfilling. I love the team effort, though I do believe Lino should never have to raise his voice
Thanks for watching!
I think his tone would reflect his urgency.
do you always work in teams? or can you do this alone?
Most glassmakers work in a team, but some, most notably Bill Gudenrath, work alone - see videos on his bio: www.cmog.org/bio/william-gudenrath
Many thanks
Nice to see him go from a large piece, to creating the Bird from the bit left over!
it would be impossible for me to work there cuz i would wanna touch it
It would be so hot, you wouldn't get that close with bare skin. The hard part is not trying to grab at anything that might fall towards the floor.
WOW! SMALL WONDER WHY HAND BLOWN CRYSTAL IS SO EXPENSIVE
I was thinking the same thing! Keeping that 10-12 lbs of glass spinning, in & out of the fire, keeping temperatures perfect, having a team of people working on keeping the furnace temp just so, people from getting burned by the heat (I think that's the purpose of those wood blocks?)
Incredible!
Its just wonderful...
A bit disappointing, because seeing a finished piece after watching all this work would be very nice.

Great man Great Job well done sir.
Capolavoro Lino! This is my favorite way to unwind…video and a cup of coffee. You need to have the muscular ginger guy in all your videos.(G)
Whoever disliked this video obviously must hate themselves! Love Lino!
The announcer at first sounded like Jim parsons
is it not jim? really sounds like him!
beautiful work what is his website so I can see more
Here is Lino's bio www.cmog.org/bio/lino-tagliapietra, that also has a link to his website. Thanks for watching!
Grand Master of Glass
lmfao "I gwantete de punti and the sticke in de hole" grazie lol
what?
He's very very good
SO SATISFYING OMG
wow, that bird was ahhhhhhh mazing!
excellent
Muito legal, um grande trabalho!!
"the tip is the first thing to go in the glory hole but last thing to come out' thats what she said!
I'm curious about the sign saying "Use Me" at ~12:30, and what it relates to.
It's the annealing oven currently in use - where the pieces go at the end to cool.
can u melt sand on a regular oven?
+Peter Johnny Tenay No, melting requires very high temperatures, at least 2400 degrees Fahrenheit so a regular oven wouldn't get hot enough. Here's a video that explains more ua-cam.com/video/2xzf3Cgz99I/v-deo.html
Corning Museum of Glass ight thnx.
This narrator sounds like that guy from The Big Bang Theory, Jim Parsons, mixed with a little John Malkovich LOL
DID IT BREAK AT THE END? 11.20?
+ameyy ramachandran No, it didn't break. Here's a photo of the final object blog.cmog.org/2014/12/02/linotagliapietra-work-honors-former-director-david-whitehouse/
+Corning Museum of Glass oh thank god...that would be quite sad.
so bad the final piece isn't shown cold.

ive watched a few of their vids so far, NONE of their vids have final shots. Its horrid.
Capo.
THE POONTIE!
At 17:27 Eric was laughing at something... what was it ?
why isn't there any sound on the audience
RIP
Why is Sheldon doing the commentary XD
none of the senior guys have any hair. Is it the result of continually working near high heat?
جميل
Haha babysitting this old dude
What happened at 1:11:22? Sound of broken glass.
+asael80
metal Sound
+asael80 It's not glass, it's metal - most likely the punty or tools
+hk Taurus You're right. Thanks :-)
they never break one of those? i want to see fails?
Is everyone gonna ignore the fact he said gloryhole like 457885 times
Ironically. I first learned the term in 1962 at Corning, which is when I fell in love with glass. More ironically, I am gay, was at Stonewall in '69, and took an odd different humorous pleasure in the "perversion of the term!
39:40 the guy in the audience just took like 50 photos .....
wiat wait wait... they call the opening to the furnace the "glory hole"??? 15:25
he sounds like sheldon
que cosa? 5 personas para un jarrón y algo así como una paloma en 1hr? no son artesanos. En Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico esto lo hace una persona, cuando mucho dos y son cosas bellas.
like roasting marshmallows
I thought the commentator was a young guy b4, but after watching this I know I hv been wrong😝
5:01
when u post glass blowing on youtube this happens.
SQEEZE SQUEEZE one is to small
check 30:18 for some edgy stuff
anyone els fall asleeo
justta tha tippp a little biet...
the glory hole hahaha. regardless of that great vid.
the tip is the first thing to go in the glory hole
imagine how much fuckin fuel theyre using all that gas just to make one fuckin pot
Not nearly as much as is leaking out of the ground in Chatsworth, CA (Porter Ranch). Perhaps if it catches fire again, it might create glass there?

Great work. His ADHD assistants need to pay more attention though. Lino kept repeating instructions and they were ignoring him.
I've a feeling it was a combination of awe at being able to work with him and being unfamiliar working with him.
+Suyi Kiyohara yeah you never understand or know how other people are going to instruct
I don't understand why you're trying to find excuses for their lapse in concentration. This is a time-critical job and they were daydreaming instead of following basic instructions.

Inimbrium Me?
+Suyi Kiyohara sorry no. i think i was trying to reply to the other message. i give up.
m8 u have to keep that tip nice and hot
italians do it better
I really don't appreciate this style of glass art,it's homely
welll......then don't watch the video and watch another kind of art that you may appreciate and enjoy. Art is endless and comes in so many ways with their unique expression and impression 😊

if it was easy anybody will do it and this video wouldn't exist probably.
