His paintings can be seen in museums and private collections worldwide. He defined new pathways for glass art and is considered one of the most significant artists in this medium. He is best known for his spectacular artworks in public spaces which have drawn worldwide attention. The Dome of Light: Wind, Fire, and Time is the largest illuminated glass art dome in the world. It is situated in the Central Station of the Kaohsiung Rapid Transit metro system and is a landmark that has now become a tourist destination in Taiwan. His glass dome for the entry rotunda of the basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri, built by Michelangelo on the ruins of the Baths of Diocletian in Rome, is well known for the use of light within the space to manifest the movement and alignment of celestial bodies. One of his major life achievements has been the development of techniques to create fused glass imagery, a process that is akin to painting. He is sharing this new-found language through a series of on-line masterclasses. Narcissus Quagliata is an active writer whose first poetry collection, MUTANT, was published by Arnoldsche Publishers in 2019. <img width="5760" height="3840" width_o="5760" height_o="3840" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d071610afb3fe16c1a4643f6c8386d8a12ad360c44ee60aea1ec8f0de90ac4ec/36_K39A0499.jpg" data-mid="195185195" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d071610afb3fe16c1a4643f6c8386d8a12ad360c44ee60aea1ec8f0de90ac4ec/36_K39A0499.jpg" /> https://narcissusquagliata.com/03-visual_artist Sun, 28 May 2023 17:26:24 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/03-visual_artist <img width="1058" height="180" width_o="1058" height_o="180" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/63686a64461f45584a328fe22141ecb50fd881d66fff538497ee8bb8740c4e8c/Artboard-1-copy-972x.png" data-mid="189049276" border="0" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/63686a64461f45584a328fe22141ecb50fd881d66fff538497ee8bb8740c4e8c/Artboard-1-copy-972x.png" /> The deepest interest in Narcissus’ artistic practice is the creative act in which his passion for the figure, beautiful and ugly, is embraced with all of its contradictions, and in which his profound love for the materials and insatiable drive to innovate pushes and explores the medium to its extreme limit. <img width="472" height="164" width_o="472" height_o="164" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6027ea89b4168928d6e909318d7a2050cf602c5aac645d212f3613dbe7ca1862/Artboard-107-copy.png" data-mid="195205701" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/472/i/6027ea89b4168928d6e909318d7a2050cf602c5aac645d212f3613dbe7ca1862/Artboard-107-copy.png" /> <img width="500" height="106" width_o="500" height_o="106" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4bfe342260523e4d66d2adf36ced84a1f596eee25fdea472b31cd1d9fd0ec561/watercolor-500.png" data-mid="197196731" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/500/i/4bfe342260523e4d66d2adf36ced84a1f596eee25fdea472b31cd1d9fd0ec561/watercolor-500.png" /> https://narcissusquagliata.com/04_poetry Sun, 04 Jun 2023 19:51:08 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/04_poetry <img width="672" height="194" width_o="672" height_o="194" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2950bc1d40a086c94ef8cf44872241ad38c0b158c46a70d37f4f8d1112de4f45/Artboard-1-copy-572x.png" data-mid="189049354" border="0" data-scale="74" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/672/i/2950bc1d40a086c94ef8cf44872241ad38c0b158c46a70d37f4f8d1112de4f45/Artboard-1-copy-572x.png" /> <img width="150" height="120" width_o="150" height_o="120" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b31eedda3a865344711be448a832f0fcdd3d02dc85f3e50268dcbd708131a21/04-b.png" data-mid="196307579" border="0" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/150/i/0b31eedda3a865344711be448a832f0fcdd3d02dc85f3e50268dcbd708131a21/04-b.png" /> https://narcissusquagliata.com/05_nq_teaching Sun, 28 May 2023 17:16:26 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/05_nq_teaching <img width="500" height="334" width_o="500" height_o="334" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dda71221104698b4a3d7878fba8d8c4a2b24692f57b5e587e9f00a02f0f76814/header.png" data-mid="247517613" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/500/i/dda71221104698b4a3d7878fba8d8c4a2b24692f57b5e587e9f00a02f0f76814/header.png" /> Know more about Centro Quagliata here&nbsp;︎︎︎ https://narcissusquagliata.com/contact-us Sun, 28 May 2023 17:16:26 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/contact-us ︎ EMAIL&nbsp; ︎ FACEBOOK ︎&nbsp; INSTAGRAM ︎YOUTUBE︎ TIKTOK https://narcissusquagliata.com/08_footer-1 Fri, 26 May 2023 21:32:43 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/08_footer-1 https://narcissusquagliata.com/02_bio-copy Wed, 08 Nov 2023 21:29:23 +0000 Narcissus Quagliata https://narcissusquagliata.com/02_bio-copy <img width="291" height="166" width_o="291" height_o="166" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8bd2fd2f97b3d20f2cb50dcba8ecb6eda930f8413244aa8329000598c31032ae/artist-bio.png" data-mid="196302693" border="0" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/291/i/8bd2fd2f97b3d20f2cb50dcba8ecb6eda930f8413244aa8329000598c31032ae/artist-bio.png" /> Narcissus Quagliata is a painter, a glass artist, a teacher and a poet.

What impressed him about the glass was the immense potential to innovate. Historically glass had been used primarily for decoration or in traditional religious settings, but Narcissus saw in the material a chance for personal expression. With new and experimental techniques he has taken imagery in glass to uncharted territory. Light is used everywhere in our world, natural or artificial, on screens all around urban environments. But for Narcissus the perfect painting today could only be achieved with glass because the image becomes one with light, the very essence of life. <img width="348" height="359" width_o="348" height_o="359" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b689ec46fb6710ee0942b37f3476c331d266b4bb5e91c98ab8a39b560ecbdcd1/Artboard-1-copy-772x.png" data-mid="196303057" border="0" data-scale="29" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/348/i/b689ec46fb6710ee0942b37f3476c331d266b4bb5e91c98ab8a39b560ecbdcd1/Artboard-1-copy-772x.png" />
