In the mid-1920s he moved to the island of Murano. He worked for a short time as a decorator in the glass factory S.A.L.I.R. later he worked as a designer for Salviati & C. and Successori Andrea Rioda. He also exhibited his paintings at the Venice Biennale between 1924 and 1930. After returning from the war in Africa in 1939, he became artistic director of Aureliano Toso's glassworks. There he designed numerous works from 1946 to 1960, taking up traditional Venetian glass techniques again. He became particularly well-known for his polychrome effects, which he often combined with asymmetrical forms. Above all, the colorfulness of his glass art has always inspired, but also his ability to work with melted glass threads and other sophisticated techniques. Martens ended his collaboration with Toso in 1963. He died just seven years later in his native Venice.
