An unprecedented exploration of Venetian maiolica set in a vibrant
context of hybridity and exchange. Introduced by migrant potters
ca.1500, the medium offers a unique point of entry into Venice's
material world shaped by Mediterranean trade and local luxury
production. This exhibition catalogue explores maiolica's
multifaceted connection to objects ranging from Islamic metalwork
to Venetian glass. Accompanying an exhibition held at the Gardiner
Museum, Toronto, Global Luxury in Renaissance Venice explores the
role of maiolica within the vast range of luxury objects made in
Venice and imported into the city, highlighting the place of the
medium at the nexus of cross-media and cross-cultural exchanges.
Thematic discussions investigate the circulation of artefacts and
the migration of ornament, the potter's workshop and artistic
lineage, and maiolica's position in the material culture of
splendour that characterized elite interiors. The book addresses
works made in the thriving workshops of Jacomo da Pesaro and
Domenego da Venezia, and suggests a connection between the rise of
villeggiatura in the mid-sixteenth century and the ascent Venice's
maiolica industry.
