« At the beginning, all is empty and dark.
It looks like a never-ending sphere.
The darkness is strong and heavy.
Only a small grain from the destroyed world remains.
It’s floating and collecting positive energy from the space.
In the right moment, at the proper place, it explodes at the speed of light.
From one moment to another, the universe is full.
Blending, full of light, waiting for you.
Make a wish.
Create the new world of light, gravid in possibilities.
By focusing on the essentials we reach the blurred lines between natural and artificial.
These relationships are the jewel in the composition of freedom and individual expression.
Sometimes we see only what we want to see. Sometimes it’s enough.
We want to know the truth behind the things.
Truth is freedom.
So we ask, investigate and are curious.
We want to find out how things work.
We are creating universe with the least constraint.
The need to create is an elementary necessity of us all. » – Viktoria Munzker

« Mirar, observar, desmontar mentalmente, entender y descubrir el proceso de creación de los objetos, los materiales que los componen y la pasión por aprender me han permitido crecer y evolucionar en mis procesos creativos. Lápices, papeles, pinceles, colas, telas, hilos, agujas… han sido las herramientas que me han acompañado siempre, recientemente se han añadido los metales, las limas,el soldador, los plásticos, las resinas… todo aquello que me permite expresarme dentro del mundo de la joyería contemporánea. En mis piezas busco el mensaje, la originalidad, siempre con el lenguaje y la técnica adecuada a cada caso, a menudo me arriesgo, disfruto de la libertad que me da trabajar en un proyecto propio. » Isabel Tristan at CONTEXT Galeria

EXCHANGE-BIJOU 1 – Marion Lebouteiller at ADA Gallery (UK) & at « Ringing the changes » EXPO (UK) 15 April-16 July 2017

Marion Lebouteiller  jewellery is now available at ada_gallery (Market Harborough, UK)

AND  UPCOMING EXHIBITION :
I am delighted to be part of «Ringing the changes» – a ring exhibition at the exceptional Victoria Sewart Gallery. The exhibition will run  from April 15th until July 16th 2017.
// Je suis ravie de faire partie de « Ringing the changes », une exposition de bagues à la galerie Victoria Sewart à Plymouth. L’exposition commencera le 15 Avril et durera jusqu’au 16 Juillet.

Marion Lebouteiller ​   at "Ringing the changes 2017"Marion Lebouteiller ​- ring –   at « Ringing the changes 2017″ Victoria Sewart Contemporary Jewellery Gallery.
« Marion draws her inspiration from the beauty of things imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. Today, her background as a sculptor in a bronze foundry deeply influences her approach to contemporary jewellery. She has been experimenting with a sculptor’s wax she heats up then twists and stretches to create stunning pieces later to be cast in silver or recycled gold. The result highlights the unpredictable nature of the warm wax as well as the spontaneity of her gesture and movement while letting the material express itself to its full potential. The perfect high polish of the inside of her rings creates a beautiful contrast with the matte finish and makes them very comfortable to wear. »

« Ringing The Changes is an exhibition of internationally renowned British jewellers designing distinctly modern rings, complimenting both the contemporary and the traditional. Striking rings for all occasions,  including bespoke wedding rings.
The exhibition includes 8 new designers, and new work from current Victoria Sewart Gallery designers. All specialising in rings made from a wide range of materials; traditional, contemporary, precious and affordable. Sustainability is important with the designers using materials that are sourced as ethically as possible. »

EXCHANGE-BIJOU 1 – Rafael Luis ALVAREZ at « CREATIVITY CONTEST-Il gioiello si mette in posa » – Torino (Italy) 13 Mai-30 Juin 2017

Rafael Luis Alvarez (Argentina)

Selected for  « Creativity Contest-Il gioiello si mette in posa »

 

INAUGURAZIONE SABATO 13 MAGGIO dalle 16,30 ALLE 20
PRESSO CREATIVITY OGGETTI
Creativity Contest-Il gioiello si mette in posa”, torna alla sua seconda edizione.
Un concorso internazionale riservato a jewellery designers e artisti che dà vita ad una mostra che inaugura il 13 maggio 2017.

CREATIVITY CONTEST

Interpreti dei gioielli che si sono distinti per ricerca di materiali, concept e aspetto formale, i 13 autori internazionali selezionatiRafael Luis Alvarez (Argentina) — Nikolai Balabin (Russia-Filnlandia) — Angela Ciobanu (Romania) — Nicolas Estrada (Colombia) — Anna Król (Polonia) — Laura Forte (Italia) — Marco Malasomma (Italia) — Renata Manganelli (Italia) — Lital Mendel (Israele) — Liliya Milpetrova (Bulgaria-Inghilterra) — Mabel Pena (Argentina) — Stenia Scarselli (Italia) — Nicole Schuster (Germania),
che presenteranno oltre alle opere scelte,vere e proprie collezioni.
L’esposizione consentirà quindi di dare maggior risalto alla ricerca artistica dei partecipanti.

Al pubblico che visiterà l’esposizione, insieme alla giuria,composta da: Daniela Bulgarelli, Enrico Debandi, Ludovica Gallo Orsi, Antonella Giani, Nichka Marobin, il ruolo decisivo di assegnare a fine mostra i premi stabiliti, partendo dal più ambito: il servizio fotografico in still life di un’intera collezione, realizzato in studio dalla fotografa Romana Federica Cioccoloni, che ha realizzato per le opere in mostra uno scatto fotografico particolarmente elaborato, specificatamente studiato per questa occasione.
Attraversato da uno spirito giocoso, l’intento del concorso diventa occasione, per una proposta di indagine di più ampio respiro sul gioiello contemporaneo, dove il fine supera il pur interessante confronto tra jewellery designer di ambito internazionale e il risultato che ne decreta la vittoria.
Contaminazione di linguaggi, sapienza tecnica, narrazione, capacità di emozionare. Il gioiello può e deve essere tutto questo. Se fosse una domanda, armonia sarebbe la risposta.
Creativity Oggetti punta da 16 anni i riflettori su artisti e designer che dedicano il loro lavoro alla ricerca di capi d’opera all’insegna dell’ hand made e alla definizione di un linguaggio artistico personale, facendo da tramite tra l’artista e il pubblico e promuovendo lavori per la maggior parte inediti. L’idea di dare una voce a chi fa ricerca, o magari dedica la propria vita a definire un linguaggio artistico personale, può essere un buon motivo per ideare e promuovere un concorso dedicato al gioiello contemporaneo con uno sguardo internazionale.
“Il gioiello si mette in posa” vuole essere una vetrina che offre opportunità professionali a tutti i partecipanti.
Le opere saranno in esposizione e vendita fino al 30 giugno 2017 e lasceranno documento del loro passaggio nel Catalogo “Il gioiello si mette in posa” con i testi di Paola Stroppiana e le fotografie di Federica Cioccoloni.

Jesmonite is a composite material used in fine arts, crafts, and construction. It consists of gypsum based raw material in an acrylic resin. »

‘LOOT: Mad About Jewelry’ Returns this Spring with 54 Artists from 21 Countries

LOOT spring 2017

From April 4 through 8, 2017, the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) presents LOOT: MAD About Jewelry, the annual exhibition and sale of contemporary art jewelry. Now in its 17th edition, LOOT presents a cross-section of the most exciting cutting-edge art jewelry designs, while offering the public a rare opportunity to meet and acquire pieces directly from some of the most skilled creators in the field. A striking example of the evolving possibilities of jewelry as an art form, LOOT: MAD About Jewelry champions the vision and craftsmanship of outstanding art jewelers—most of whom have never before shown work in the United States.

This year’s edition welcomes 54 artists from 21 countries, the majority of whom have never been shown in New York. All were selected by Bryna Pomp following a full year of travel and research.

THE LOOT ACQUISITION PRIZE
Awarded by a jury, the LOOT Acquisition Prize seeks to recognize a LOOT jewelry artist whose work reflects a maturity in artistry and concept; exhibits both a superior and experimental understanding of materials and form; and demonstrates expertise in technique and execution. The 2017 jury is chaired by William and Mildred Lasdon Chief Curator Shannon R. Stratton, Assistant Curator Barbara Paris Gifford, and LOOT Curator Bryna Pomp. The 2017 LOOT Acquisition Prize will be awarded on April 3 at the Opening Benefit dinner.

Anne Dinan« Anne Dinan’s enameled jewelry designs are the result of inspired experimentation and appreciation for an ever-expanding artistic process. Fascinated by the mixing of natural and industrial influences, she incorporates metals, glass, photo decals, assemblage, and metalsmithing to create stunning enamel works. She attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and has taught hundreds of students in person and globally through her online classes. Dinan also founded the Trade Handmade Facebook page, which has connected thousands of artists across the world. Her enameled photo decal wall piece Unknown Relatives, based on old photos found at a family farm in Michigan, is part of the permanent collection of Enamel Arts Foundation in Los Angeles. »

EXCHANGE-BIJOU 2 – Carlos SILVA – news from MARS ….

Carlos SILVA

Carlos Silva works  a LOT on others jewellers, their exhibitions, their works, their news …. and it’s difficult to find news about HIS works, his news, his exhibitions ! He takes his work as AJF (ART JEWELRY FORUM) Ambassador VERY seriously ! and as he is TOO Board Member of PIN (PIN – Associação Portuguesa de Joalharia Contemporânea) you can understand …………

The last pictures we got about his work are of « dark things », mainly brooches, that are titled in portuguese « pregadeiras » (the word for « brooch ») but that sounds for me as « prière » or « preghiera » :  prayers …. a nice sound, a nice thing, a nice idea, a nice object ….
