The Story to live together
Max Schiavon is a brilliant entrepreneur who revolutionized the ancient art of mosaic in a modern style by exhibiting in the most important galleries around the world. For the new exhibition in El Paso, California, he asked Professor Cinzia Trevisan to involve her network of international artists to select the most talented to forge this particularly innovative exhibition.
If you have never worked with the modern mosaic technique do not worry, Cinzia will help you to understand the evolution, from the ancient world to the current artistic dimension, it will be up to you to show all your talent to be so selected for the exhibition at the El Paso gallery!
