Gallery Funaki—Yutaka Minegishi’s work is slow to make, rare to find, and highly coveted. He carves his perfect forms from one piece of material, be it wood, stone, or crystal. Each piece is devilishly simple and yet complex to make—he uses 500 different types of files. As Minegishi says, “Simplicity is not that simple.” His work is found in the Pinakothek der Moderne, the Stichting Francoise van den Bosch collection, and the Art Gallery of South Australia, among others. He won the Munich Art Prize in 2017.

Galerie Biró—Born in 1935, the Austrian artist Peter Skubic has been one of the great innovators of art jewelry since the 1960s. His works are represented in all renowned international collections. Skubic has withdrawn from working, and his few brooches for sale are a real rarity. Galerie Biró has four of them. Peter’s formal language is very minimalist. His mirrored surfaces cause irritation and draw the viewer’s gaze into the depth of the brooches to be discovered. Everything seems clear, but is often just a reflection.

Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h, bijoux et objets contemporains—As Simon Cottrell says in his interview with Susan Cummins on AJF, “While jewelry does communicate visually, there are other non-visual matters, such as weight and how pieces feel in the hands and on the body when worn, which are so often overlooked by jewelers. All of these aspects already provide potential for a greater diversity of engagement beyond visual sensory stimulus alone. By creating counterpoints between all of these aspects, it is possible to break and extend the expectations born of initial, surface perceptions. I always try to create pieces that feel somewhere between organic growths and built architectonics, among many other subtle contrasts in their physical qualities.”
Cottrell completed a fine art degree with honors from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. He has taught and lectured at universities around the work. His work is held in public collections and significant private collections internationally.

Taboo Studio—Ramón Puig Cuyás was born in Barcelona. His early experiences in the city by the sea inspired his interest in science and exploration, but rather than pursuing science, he turned to art, which, Cuyás said, “gives you the opportunity to discover, imagine, invent, and transform other kinds of universes, inner universes, which emerge from the depths of our dreams and our desires.” He found expression for his investigations during his pursuit of jewelry design at the Massana School in Barcelona, from which he graduated. He then became head of the jewelry department there for many years. His work is included in the permanent collections of prestigious museums throughout the world. He has participated in many international exhibitions and received numerous awards.

Four—In Marianne Schliwinski’s work, you will see contrasts playing together. Her language consists of materials and their different qualities. Things might not always be what they seem—light pieces with a heavy look and weighty works with a light appearance. The composition of the materials—their history and color—tells sensible stories. Schliwinski often combines papier-mâché with found objects. Different paints and lacquers accentuate the materials and shapes and add more layers and stories to the pieces.

Ra Gallery—When life suddenly falters, new energy gets released. This experience inspired Gésine Hackenberg to make jewelry that explores the perception of repetitive circular movements. Her Tumbling brooches depict the dynamics of tumbling and spinning. Rims and rings of subtly tinted glass are arranged in spatial rhythms. The play of different hues seems to enhance the movement in time and space. The wearer becomes part of the delicate moment between falling and breaking or finding balance.

Gallery S O—Kirsten Haydon was the recipient of a New Zealand “Artists to Antarctica” fellowship in 2004, which had an overwhelming impact on her practice. The environment of Antarctica, both natural and constructed, prompted the artist to find ways to depict a landscape so simple and so remote that it couldn’t be described just with words. Her work references historical souvenirs that are displayed in museums, investigating the way meaning and memory of place have presence in objects. In this work, tiny glass reflector beads are scattered across an enameled photographic transfer on silver. Haydon uses images of her documentation of the Antarctic base facilities, of people negotiating the snow and ice and the natural environment. Her research explores the links enameling has had with micro-mosaics and miniature painting.
Haydon was born in New Zealand, and lives and works in Melbourne, Australia. She has received numerous awards, including the Thomas Gold Award, the Creative New Zealand grant to travel to Munich in 2008, and the Australia Council for the Arts New Work grant. She has exhibited internationally since 2000; her work is in public collections including the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris; Antarctica New Zealand, Christchurch; Te Papa Tongarewa, Wellington; and The Dowse, Lower Hutt, New Zealand.

Applied semiprecious stones give the works a touch of glamour. Through the metamorphosis wrought by the artist, these common or garden-variety objects become bearers of narratives, each with a story of its own.

L.A. Pai Gallery—Jeweler of the interstitial, Josée Desjardins explores the intimate connection between humans and their sociocultural and geographical environment. She casts her glance upon the empty spaces between the seen and the unseen, the present and the future, the body and the environment, all in order to pick up the subtle poetry that settles there. Her new exhibition is based on the deconstruction and reconstruction of objects inherited from her family. The artist starts from the premise that the creative process has the power to transform reality past, present, and future, and thus reinvent history. “Freed from fetters and prohibitions, the beauty that this great story contains can finally be reclaimed here and now in a true alchemical process,” she says.

In the Gallery at Brooklyn Metal Works—Kerianne Quick describes her series thus: “The bricks used in the series Transmutations—dating from the early to mid 20th century—were foraged out of the river at Kingston Point and along the Rondout Creek in New York State. They were hand-cut and carved, and combined with heirloom pearls, shell, silk, silver, and gold. Through stringing and pearl-knotting techniques, the work draws from both the adornment ideals of the Dutch Golden Age and the ceremonial adornment of the native Lenape Tribes of the Hudson River Valley. Like the act of colonization, Transmutations mashes together disparate cultures using native materials. Each piece references an uncomfortable combination of European and Native American adornments to create something unique to the Mid-Hudson River Valley.”
Transmutations, by Kerianne Quick, opens July 7 and will be on view through September 8. An artist talk will be held on September 7.

OHMYBLUE—Annika Pettersson’s work lies between the parallel languages of jewelry and sculpture. In her hands, an object of the world is transformed into something twofold: First we recognize a familiar structure, second, wonder bends toward us and we let go of our need to know. The action of deconstruction in her practice works as a displacement producing a gap, a semantic mayhem. This piece comes from the series called Enchantmen, where she chose to work with a baroque ornamented wood chair dating from 1910. To make sense of this object, she started cutting it with a Japanese hand saw and then rebuilt it in the form of jewelry pieces, adding pyramid-shaped obsidian stones. In her work we see how contemporary jewelry serves as a means to explore cultural themes expressed through everyday objects.

Galerie Rob Koudijs—Both Vietnam and The Netherlands have a long-standing ceramic tradition, each saturated with local codes and typical imagery. While traveling in Asia, Nhat-Vu Dang collected all sorts of porcelain dishes, bowls, and other objects, and did the same afterward in his native country. The oriental ceramics are decorated with scripture, flowers, and mythological animals, and the Dutch pottery is as legible and meaningful to him: figures in traditional dress, boats, historic adornments. In spite of all the similarities, it is also a culture clash. Dang took that literally and smashed everything into shards, East against West, West against East. Fragmentation as a motif: First fate scattered a family around the globe, now it determines how the pottery falls into pieces.

Fingers Gallery—New Zealand artist Matthew McIntyre-Wilson (Taranaki, Ngā Māhanga, and Titahi) trained as a jeweler at both Whitireia Polytechnic and Hawke’s Bay Polytechnic. During this period, he began learning traditional Māori weaving techniques from master weaver and friend Rangi Kiu. He works across the disciplines of jewelry, craft, and object, and provides an indigenous response to museological practice. “My practice of weaving in copper, silver, and now gold originated from an interest in the form and pattern of raranga whakairo,” he explains. “Combined with my formal training as a jeweler, I produce finely woven kete (woven baskets), arms bands, cloaks (kākahu), and tātua (belts). Research based in museum storerooms and library archives provides the opportunity to examine the technical making of Taonga Māori; of particular interest is the creation and variation of complex woven patterns. The variation of pattern in my work is a reflection of a continuing investigation and exploration of the whakapapa of weaving.”

Excitement of the unknown, can’t wait to see what kind of exciting future will happen next! The inspiration for the piece comes from the feeling of living in the age of disruption.

The excitement for a better future should be our navigator to change the world.
