He then collaborated with Esperia in the 1960s/1970s for whom he designs numerous lighting . His lamps with modern shapes quickly met with great success by breaking with the traditional methods of glass manufacturing in Murano. Angelo Brotto participates in numerous biennials and his resolutely modern creations are regularly exhibited.
