EXPO ‘UNEXPECTED PLEASURES’ – NGV International, Melbourne (AU) – 20 Avril-26 Aout 2012

UNEXPECTED PLEASURES

The Art and Design of Contemporary Jewellery

A Design Museum, London touring exhibition
at NGV (National Gallery of Victoria)

unexpected-pleasures-0.jpg

Unexpected Pleasures looks at what we mean by jewellery from a number of different perspectives.  Taking as its starting point the radical experiments of the Contemporary Jewellery Movement that challenged a conventional understanding of the language of personal adornment, and looking instead at the essential meanings of jewellery, the exhibition brings together important work from around the world, and looks at it from the point of view of the wearer as well as the maker. Contemporary  Jewellery in this sense is at the intersection of art and design.

Curated by Dr. Susan Cohn for the Design Museum, London with exhibition design by Ab Rogers Design and graphics by Barnbrook.

« UNEXPECTED Pleasures, an exhibition of the world’s ugliest, loveliest, most intriguing contemporary jewellery, opened at the National Gallery of Victoria International yesterday.
 »Everything here is designed to be worn, » said guest curator and jewellery designer Susan Cohn.
Visitors took that as a challenge, moving through 180 dimly lit curiosities by the world’s most radical designers, trying to imagine what it would be like to wear a necklace of glass and ceramic dildos. Or a tubular  »veil » collar like a pearly plastic version of Ned Kelly’s helmet. Or a cluster of rusted bolts and nails on a silver  »Screw Ring ».
 »After procreation and survival, our next instinct as humans is adornment, » Cohn said when asked,  »Why? »
 »Adornment is about attracting a mate, which in turn, is about procreation and survival. »
Some humans, however, obviously require more complex, intellectual adornments than others.  »Yes, some wearers will want something that speaks that way for them, » Cohn said. Among the exhibits was a vast choice of such expression, from the minimalist exquisitry of a grey sunray-pleated yoke, to a clump of small pale  »tumours », photographed bursting through a model’s frock. The latter was in a category of radical ideas.
NGV director Gerard Vaughan said the exhibition offered  »a fresh view of the many meanings associated with jewellery ».
The visiting director of London’s Design Museum, Deyan Sudjic, said it was the result of a  »long, drawn-out, cerebral process », and that is precisely how it felt.
Unexpected Pleasures: The Art and Design of Contemporary Jewellery, is a Design Museum, London, exhibition funded by the Joan and Peter Clemenger Trust.
It is free and runs until August 26, when it will travel to London. (Daily Life.com.au)

Art and design come together through its exploration of the radical experiments of contemporary jewelers who have pushed the boundaries. Navigate your way through the labyrinth of themes; Worn Out (celebrating the experience of wearing jewellery), Linking Links (looks at the way in which narratives are expressed through sub-themes and creative systems) and A Fine Line (offers insight into the origins of contemporary jewellery today) in an exhibition that is not to be missed.

EXPO ‘FORMA vs MATERIA’ – Galleria CRISTIANI, Torino (Italy) – 7-31 Dec. 2011

FORMA vs MATERIA vol.3

Un’incursione per scoprire il gioiello contemporaneo a Torino

Inaugura mercoledì 7 dicembre 2011 alle ore 19,00 presso la Galleria Cristiani, Via Porta Palatina 13 – Torino, la mostra Forma vs Materia – Volume 3, l’annuale esposizione che, dal 2009, porta un’incursione nel gioiello contemporaneo attraverso un’innovativa selezione di designer europei.

http://www.comeunagazzaladra.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Forma_vs_materia_2011.jpg

Forte del successo di pubblico ottenuto negli anni scorsi, la mostra Forma vs Materia, presenta anche questo anno al pubblico torinese un percorso che, tra innovazione e curiosità, contiene le nuove tendenze dell’arte orafa italiana ed europea.

L’esposizione, curata da Mariola Demeglio, propone anche questo anno un viaggio dove la forma dei gioielli va alla ricerca di nuove espressioni attraverso anche un connubio con materie spesso inusuali nel gioiello: dall’argento al carbonio, all’oro fino ai materiali ritenuti più poveri.

Per questo terzo anno dell’evento-appuntamento saranno esposti e messi in vendita pezzi unici da indossare e portare tutti i giorni con la consapevolezza di mostrare e stupire per Forma e Materia: una selezione di gioielli nati dalla creatività e dall’arte di giovani designer affermati in tutta Europa.

EXPO ‘Brooch / Bross’ – Sterling Gallery, Budapest (HU) – 26 Mai-17 Juin 2011

The Sterling Gallery cordially invites you to an exclusive exhibition, entitled BROOCH, of young contemporary artists.

https://d15cquu4k8zfpu.cloudfront.net/photos/1243/hl.jpg?1304935474

Sterling Gallery located in Budapest (H) organizing an exclusive exhibition, entitled BROOCH in order to create an interactive information exchange, a dialogue, a conversation or a meeting between Hungarian and international artists from different countries.

The jewel as a « household object » has pronounced functional complexity.
It has both a role and a tradition in each community.
It can be inferred from certain eras, cultures, ethnic groups and lifestyles, habits and thinking.
It might be a sign, or a symbol which is answering to a non-asked question.
It can refer to the wearer’s age, identity, the religious affiliation, marital status.
It is the distinguishing sign of the everyday and the holidays, a status symbol.
It is a part of magical and practical function in people’s lives.
A jewel fits the body and it’s present in clothing.
The jewel expresses the relationship between people.
The brooch, brooches have also been made in the Bronze Age, Greek, Roman and in other European workshops.

These had a functional role as indispensable elements of clothing and self representation.
The brooches had the force to join, screw and fix the fabric of the cloth.
The use of the buttons and buckles took the practical role of the brooch away, but in the same time the aesthetic function of the brooch has been enhanced.

Exhibited artists : 
Abaffy Klára — Adám Krisztián — Bartl Dora — Dávid Attila Norbert –Egri Zoltán — Egi Marcell — Ferenczi Vanda –Fördős Bence — Noémi Gera  –Gaál Gyöngyvér — Előd Halász  — Huber Kinga — Kecskés Orsolya — Király Fanni –Krámli Magdolna — Réka Lőrincz  –Marosi László — Péter Vladimir — Simon Viktória — Sfomfai Krisztina –Slavei Tamás — Tóth Zoltán –Varga Viktór — Flóra Vági  — Vékony Fanni — Visy Dóra — Wladis –

EXPO ‘Du Textile au Bijou’ – Pôle Bijou-Galerie, Baccarat (FR) – 3 Nov. 2010-4 Avril 2011

L’exposition intitulée «Du Textile au Bijou» se déroulera du 3 novembre 2010 au 4 avril 2011 au Pôle Bijou-Galerie de Baccarat et proposera aux visiteurs de découvrir les techniques du tricot, du tressage, du tissage, du maillage, de la broderie, du pliage, du point, des noeuds… Tout ceci au travers de créations exceptionnelles en tissu ou en métal !

EXPO textile -pole-bijou-site

« Fil, fibre, filament, bande, corde … comme autant de matériaux. Soie, lin, laine, coton, feutre, serge, velours … comme autant de matières. Tissage, filage, nouage, tressage, couture, tricotage, crochetage… comme autant de techniques. Teinture, coloration, impression, imprégnation … comme autant d’ennoblissements. Ruban, galon, perle, broderie, dentelle, application … comme autant de décorations. Le textile nous entoure, nous enveloppe, même si quotidiennement il passe parfois inaperçu…Du plus brut au plus noble, sa création, sa fabrication et sa mise en oeuvre regorgent d’inventivité et de savoir-faire et témoignent d’une longue épopée de l’activité humaine débutée il y a des milliers d’années. Que sa pratique soit domestique, activité des petites mains qui dans l’humilité du foyer ont reprisé, ravaudé, cousu, ornementé … ou plus industrielle et destinée à produire vêtements, linge de maison, revêtements, objets utilitaires elle concerne chacun de nous…
Cette exposition sera une forme d’hommage à tous ces gestes qui, réinventés au fil du temps ont donné naissance à une si incroyable variété d’objets et de matières. Quoi de plus normal alors, pour mettre en avant la richesse du textile que d’interroger son rapport avec le bijou cet objet spécifique qui ornemente et pare, qui valorise et définit … La trentaine de créateurs invités vous permettra de découvrir ou redécouvrir toute la richesse d’un univers quasiment illimité … qu’ils utilisent directement les matières textiles, qu’ils en transfèrent les multiples techniques dans leur approche du métal en tissant du fil d’or et d’argent, cousant des plaques les unes avec les autres, ou qu’ils utilisent son répertoire formel comme source d’inspiration ils vous proposent tous un voyage original qui ouvre les frontières. » (« Annuaire Azur »-HBJO)
