After a pause of 21 years, the Premio Murano (Murano Glass Prize) has been reintroduced in 2012 to encourage confrontation between contemporary art and traditional Murano Glass Masters, with the special addition of a Premio Murano Junior reserved for young artists.

The Premio Murano is promoted by the prestigious Abate Zanetti Glass School for the study and development of Murano glass art.

Meanwhile, the 110 finalists from all over the world competing in the sixth edition of the International Laguna Art Prize, which covers six different disciplines: painting, sculpture, artistic photography, video art, performing art and, for the first time, visual art on iPad, recently held their collective exhibition in the Venice Arsenal.
