EXPO ‘PURPLE’ – Steinbeisser at the Lloyd Hotel & Cultural Embassy , Amsterdam (NL) – 14-15 Dec. 2013

The Steinbeisser Jewellery Show at the Lloyd Hotel & Cultural Embassy is an annual event showcasing the work of established and upcoming artists. The show’s theme of this edition is ‘Purple’. A color of contradiction for which the artists specially created or selected pieces never shown in the Netherlands before.

(Philip Sajet necklace)

The theme Purple is a color of contradiction, it consists of the warm and comforting red and the cold and clean blue. Purple stands for the mystery of life as it also stands for the mystery of death. Our request to the participants was, what is your most perfect color purple?

On exhibit are works from Philip Sajet – Edgar Mosa – Andi Gut — Evert Nijland — Tarja Tuupanen — Rosa Nogués Freixas — Natalie Luder — Beate Klockmann –  Sofia Björkman – Maki Okamoto — Tobias Alm — Nina Sajet – Nils Hint — Volker Atrops — Jorge Manilla — Manuel Vilhena  — Märta Mattsson.

EXPO ‘Mariposa/papallona/Butterfly’ – Amaranto joies, Barcelona (ES) – 4 Avril-18 Mai 2013

Mariposa/Papallona/Butterfly

Una exposición comisariada por PHILIP SAJET

 55 creadores = 55 mariposas

Philip Sajet

“There are as many butterflies as that are people, probably even many more.

Mystica tells us, that departed souls sometimes return as butterflies to comfort and reasure us.

But whatever the case, one thing is sure in this life they live short.

They are light and extremely agile and in the eyes of some are considered as very beautiful

The only animal who looks alive while not being it.

That is their tragedy. To be pinned on a board. 

The butterfly for the artist is also a metaphor for life.

How big or small, how light or heavy do you make it?

It was my personal curiosity to ask artists whose work fascinate / intrigue me to show me their Butterfly.

Yes almost as intimate as this question sounds, so intimate in a way it is.”   Philip Sajet

Petr Dvorak - Garnet/garnet/Butterfly 

My garnet/garnet/titanium butterfly is a transformation of my perception of the world, my vision of impressions, desires and illusions. Within each of us is a butterfly

Peter Skubic - Butterfly  2013

The pieces is a butterfly in my still. It means the reflecting steel-sheats makes the piece as well as invisible,
because mirrors are invisible. You can only see the reflection of the surface and the colour and imagine spaces.
I make it from a suggestion of Philip Sajet.

I always liked to mix different quotations in my pieces.

To do a butterfly seemed to be very easy, but suddenly this insect really gave me problems. It became so serious but at the same time too sweet. I had to leave nature immediately and go back to the topics I am familiar with.

Robean Visschers – butter-fly brooch

As a child I was already wondering how « things » got their name. Sometimes a word or a name is a combination of 2 or more words. also in the case of the Butterfly. Why?? I combined a pack of butter with a fly. Quess what? It doesnt look like a butterfly. For me its a strang name for a beautiful animal.

Silvia Walz -   Morpho con alas desplegadas –

El morpho es una mariposa azul que vive la mayor parte del tiempo en el bosque con las alas plegadas. Sin embargo cuando esta en búsqueda de compañero, sale de su escondite, desplega las alas y vuela en lo alto.

Surasekk Yushiwat Butterfly Effect. The keyword of this product come from question “Butterfly colors this world but how they color anyone who wear t-shirts ?”. The graphic of butterfly effect come from difference movements during daily routine activity of wearer in each days, so there are no cliché graphical.

Schmuck 2013 – EXPO ‘Vintage Violence’ – Antiquariat Dieter Zipperich, Munich (DE) – 7-9 Mars 2013

« Vintage Violence » – Brigitte & Volker Atrops

08 March – 09 March 2013
Opening: Thursday – 07. March 2013 – 6:15 pm

- the background to the exhibition is as follows:
Some time ago, I was invited to exhibit in a nineteenth century villa, where I made an exciting discovery. Behind the villa was a stranded ghost ship, in the form of an enormous, abandoned jewellery factory, the captain of which was still sitting behind stacks of dusty files and reading the latest newspaper. The ship’s lieutenant led me through the treasure-filled wreck…
A year later my wife and I returned on a 14-day mission to hammer out the bitter remnants of the past. Embossing, punching, winding… the 1950s fashion-jewellery aluminium we found went into the early-industrial machines with such finality, that it was almost impossible to reproduce standard pieces, as is the case with genuine handicrafts. Through cottage-industryesque labour, the crude output of the machines was bound together into sheaves of lovely jewels. The pieces are numbered and stamped with BfG (Bund für Gestaltung / Confederation of Design ). The title “Vintage Violence” as well as the arrangement of the scene photographed for the invitation card are taken from a completely different context and originate from an early 1970s’ record sleeve (John Cale).
Despite all the retrospect, the pieces are completely fresh and untarnished and are now on display for the first time in the Zipprich antiquarian bookstore, within the wider context of the Internationale Handwerksmesse ‘Schmuck’ exhibition.
We heartily invite you to come and see them.
Brigitte & Volker Atrops

SCHMUCK 2012 – ‘No Stone unturned’ – Munich (DE) – 15 mars-5 avril 2012

No Stone unturned, Volker Atrops

« Volker Atrops presented his works in an antiquarian bookstore. The pieces were laid out on paper in the window, on shelves, in cabinets and nestled among the books. Volker’s works are primarily made of iron patinated a deep orange that had an unexpectedly smooth surface for metal that looks so heavily oxidised. Alongside the pieces were minerals, crystal clusters and fossils which were also set into some of the pieces and echoed in the forms of the metalwork. All of this gave the impression of looking at archaeological & paleontological specimens from a distant past. Volker had also glued tiny little wooden shelves to the inside of the front window to show rings…. » (Danae Natsis blog)

EXPO ‘Svolte, tra riforma luterana e gioiello contemporaneo’ – Alchimia School, Firenze (IT) – 24 Mars-6 mai 2011

« Svolte, tra riforma luterana e gioiello contemporaneo« 

13e Erfurter Schmuck symposium

Since 1984  the  Schmucksymposium in Erfurt takes place every two years in the German city of Erfurt, with the aim of supporting the creative work of jewellery artists. A group of artists invited for this occasion and Volker Atrops, artist in residence at Erfurt in 2009, have worked together in July 2010 for the preparation of a symposium on the theme of Martin Luther’s journey to Italy between 1510 and 1511. This journey was the  turning point in the life of the great theologian who initiated the Reformation and had a huge impact across the continent, not only on the  political history but also on social relations and costume.
The radical questioning of decoration (the churches, but not only ..), the reference to a vision of monastic life (with the condemnation of ornament), the establishment of principles which then unexpectedly became the foundations of capitalist ethics are all themes that are of great interest to art and  art jewellery.

Klassiker der Moderne 2011 : Manfred Bischoff
In 2011, as in every year, there will be a retrospective of the works of one of the ‘classics of the Modern’. SCHMUCK 2011 will present the key works of Manfred Bischoff, a German goldsmith living in Italy who is regarded around the world as one of today´s leading contemporary jewellery designers. At the Internationale Handwerksmesse one of the many prizes he has received is the Bavarian State Prize (2005), an award which enjoys the very highest regard in the field of arts and crafts.

Manfred Bischoff

SCHMUCK the special show culminates in the presentation of the Herbert Hofmann Prize on 19 March 2011. In addition SCHMUCK 2011 is accompanied by a whole host of other events taking place in galleries, museums and arts institutes in Munich.

 

After the Internationale Handwerksmesse SCHMUCK goes on tour, this time, for the first time, also to France.
The French town which was given this honour is Cagnes-sur-Mer (Espace Solidor) in Provence. In recent years this small town has developed a reputation as a meeting place for statement jewellery designers. SCHMUCK first started to travel around the world in 2006, and has been seen in Australia (RMIT Gallery, Melbourne), Great Britain (Birmingham City University), Poland (National Art Gallery, Lódz), Italy (Oratorio di San Rocco, Padua) and the US (Museum of Arts and Design, New York).

« In the mid 1960s Wendy Ramshaw and David Watkins ran a small firm called Optik Art Jewellery. They designed acrylic fashion jewellery inspired by Pop art paintings of the period. Later in 1967 they designed and sold paper jewellery all over the world. This was prior to a new revolution in jewelry design which was looming, throughout the 70s with non-precious materials and artistic ideas replacing material values. Ramshaw and Watkins were among the protagonists of the London scene. Ramshaw started out as an illustrator and textile designer. She has received numerous prestigious awards for her works, which include the Millennium Medal for Queen Elizabeth II. Her husband David Watkins was a jazz pianist, now a sculptor, and jewelry artist. Through his unconventional techniques and methods of working with materials he creates a unique style all of his own; from 1984 until 2006 he was Professor of Metalwork and Jewelry at the Royal College of Art in London. »

EXPO ‘Volker Atrops – Hello Goodbye’ – Galerie Pilartz, Cologne (DE) – 12 Sept.-23 Oct. 2010

« As of now Volker Atrops has occupied himself with jewellery for 25 years. What started with picked to pieces rosaries and fishhooks was imperceptibly transformed by a classic goldsmith and art academy education. Along with sketches, photos and books we show the often very simple jewellery works and are looking forward to your curiosity.
A pleasurable voyage into the surprising world of art of Volker Atrops. »

“I love jewellery, it’s like the plague.
Since I’ve been 16 I live with this malady, it’s embarrassing. I try to keep away from other invalids and keep on going as if nothing ever happened. A lot of sputum has been emitted in the meantime.” (Volker Atrops)

EXPO ‘LINGAM’ – Galerie du WCC-BF, Mons (Belgique) – 8 mai-22 aout 2010

« L’exposition LINGAM met en scène 121 interprétations d’un symbole ancestral de fertilité : le lingam.
Représentation symbolique du phallus et du dieu Shiva, le Lingam représente la force créatrice à la base de l’existence de tout l’univers. Dans les religions hindoue et bouddhique, c’est par le biais du lingam que l’on honore quotidiennement le dieu Shiva, la représentation phallique n’y est nullement mise en relation avec le sexe.
Dans la culture occidentale, le phallus évoque la sexualité et le plaisir. Alors qu’il fut un temps où le Christianisme et la culture judéo chrétienne mettaient également en avant la sexualité comme acte créateur positif. Depuis la séparation du corps et de l’esprit, cet aspect en a été banni et d’une référence sacrée, la sexualité est devenue un mal nécessaire.
Avec l’exposition LINGAM, son commissaire, le plasticien Ruudt Peters (NL), désire rétablir cette signification initiale ainsi que sa dimension spirituelle.

Udi Lagallina - Lingam et son yoni. Wood, gold, pearls, textile.

Partant de sa fascination pour le lingam dont il a découvert l’existence il y a dix ans lors de voyages en Asie du Sud-est, il a eut envie de proposer à des artistes et designers contemporains de créer un objet symbolisant la fertilité, chaque créateur interprétant le sujet en se basant sur sa propre sensibilité et sa perception personnelle du thème.
121 créations ont ainsi vu le jour et sont présentées dans une scénographie où la signification originelle du lingam est soulignée par la présentation des objets contemporains en compagnie de leurs modèles originaux. »

Ruudt Peters – lingam

Ruudt Peters – modern lingam

 

Après deux étapes particulièrement remarquées à Stockholm et Utrecht, l’exposition Lingam sera présente cet été aux anciens abattoirs de Mons où la Galerie du WCC-BF accueillera les œuvres des 121 créateurs, issus de 24 pays à travers le monde, qui se sont prêtés au jeu de la réinterprétation de ce symbole fort, à la fois si spécifique et universel.
