Golden Clogs, Dutch Mountains
metalcyberspace
GOLDEN CLOGS, DUTCH MOUNTAINS: New Jewelry from the NetherlandsGolden Clogs, Dutch Mountains is an exhibition showing the young generation of Dutch avantgarde jewelry with strong and innovative work by eleven emerging artists. It will open at Velvet Da Vinci Gallery, San Francisco on March 21 till April 20, 2007. It was curated for them by Andrea Wagner (studio jeweller in Amsterdam) who further organized that the exhibition continues to a number of other galleries in the United States and Canada. Testifying to the exceptional originality and creative mentality in The Netherlands the charismatic and compelling work has an unconstrained playfulness and subtle humor. The innovative use of a wide scope of materials is the outcome of the arists’ experimental curiosity in their search for narrative materiality. These intelligently beautiful jewels project a strong visual language that is based to a large extent on the power of the emotional value of material conveying the meaning behind the work. There is an exhibition catalogue Golden Clogs, Dutch Mountains with 22 color illustrations exceptionally photographed by Corriette Schoenaerts. A lecture on the Dutch creative mentality and the historical background of contemporary jewelry in that country will be given by Andrea Wagner to accompany the exhibitions.
Further showings planned:
Ornamentum Gallery, Hudson NY 6 July – 6 August 2007
Gallery Loupe, Montclair, NJ – Fall 2007
Gallery Noel Guyomarc’h, Montréal (Québec) Canada – 6 March – 13 April 2008
