EXPO ‘COMMON LANGUAGE’ – Periscope Gallery, Tel-Aviv (Israel) – 15-31 Mars 2014
« COMMON LANGUAGE »
a contemporary exhibition in Tel-Aviv at Periscope Gallery, until the 31st of march .
This exhibition features contemporary jewelry makers, highlighting the artists’ personal forms of expression and their methods of creation. The work evokes questions of identity, self-definition, and the role of the jewelry maker as a craftsman, integrating his or her professional skills and practice with a personal philosophy of art making.
Curated by Jean-Yves Le Mignot
the very concept of « Common Language » presented by the Periscope gallery : young designers, newly graduated from the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design and Shenkar College of Engineering and Design, share space with Jakob Bloch and Vered Babai, two recognized artists. Jean-Yves Le Mignot continues to pursue this dialogue by inviting 6 of the most representative French jewellers out of the last major exhibition held at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, ‘Dans la ligne de mire’.
Contemporary jewellery talks about identity. No matter how coded, it is a language that transcends the spoken word and instigates an intimate rapport between the creator and his collector. A unique piece often has the power to transcend the aesthetic intent of the creator to become an even more powerful personal expression of the person who wears it.

6 israelian + 6 french jewellers :
Brune Boyer — Florence Lehmann — Sophie Hannagarth — Aude Medori — Géraldine Luttenbacher – Agathe Saint-Girons – Vered Babaï — Jacob Bloch — Noy Alon — Naama Haneman — Roe Press — Galit Einav
