Horst Stauber was born in 1943 in Markt Eisenstein, Bohemia. He trained at the Zwiesel glass school, studied in Venice in the 1960s and worked in the glass art paradise of Murano. He later enriched his glass art work with graphic design studies in Vienna and training as a metal designer. Stauber had exhibitions in Vienna, Paris, Venice and Toronto, among other places, and returned to Passau in the 1980s. The bowl on offer was created against the backdrop of his stays/studies in Venice. It takes up the shape of the gondola and abstracts form and color at a high artistic level.
