glaslove: redesigning the course of cancer.

Sep 19, 2016

continuing luminaire’s innovative use of design to raise awareness and funds for cancer research, the groundbreaking love philanthropic series of charity auctions returns for its fourth edition this fall with glaslove. glass, characterized by the duality of its strong yet fragile nature, is a poetically fitting medium that reflects the spirit of those battling the disease. for this special event, highly collectible, one-off, limited-edition, or prototype works created in glass glass were created by distinguished international designers and design manufacturers, including nendo, piero lissoni, marcel wanders, tadao ando, naoto fukasawa, patricia urquiola, fernando and humberto campana, glas italia, lasvit, arcade, and venini, among others.

coinciding with breast cancer awareness month, the objects from glaslove will be exhibited at luminaire lab starting september 19th, culminating in a live auction and gala dinner on thursday, october 6, 2016. phillips, the international auction house, is partnering with luminaire to lead the joint live and online auction taking place september 19 – october 11, 2016 with funds benefiting research at the sylvester comprehensive cancer center at the university of miami’s miller school of medicine. glaslove will reinforce the multiple roles design can play as a problem-solving endeavor. #breastcancerawareness
