Ruudt Peters Art Jewellery Historia del vestuario: Inaugurar Nada más bello que el vestuario de las películas del canal TCM, donde aparece una joven Sophia Loren en el antiguo Egipto o una perfecta Tippi Hedren dirigida por Hitchcock. Vestuario complejo, lleno de detalles, que nos deja imaginando la realidad del revestimiento de otras épocas: ¿Qué contextos habrán generado que sean esas las formas y no otras?. Con esta interrogante decidimos inaugurar este recorrido – “viaje” basado en una observación retrospectiva a través de la Historia del Vestuario, para identificar así el origen y la data de muchos de los estilos – aspectos que hoy nos revisten, revisando nombres, materiales, cortes, tallas y texturas. Comencemos el trayecto: Hay tres fundamentos generales, que “hacen ser” al revestimiento humano. a. b. c. La necesidad como origen del primer vestario: En las zonas menos gélidas, el taparrabo fue el revestimiento común: los hombres la pasaban por entre sus piernas y la ataban a la cintura.

Walking the Gray Area Footnotes of a Stead Valeria Vallarta Siemelink So what we are really doing when we walk through the city is thinking, and thinking in such a way that our thoughts compose a journey, and this journey is no more or less than the steps we have taken, so that, in the end, we might safely say that we have been in a journey, and even if we do not leave our room, it has been journey, and we might safely say that we have been somewhere, even if we don’t know where it is. Paul Auster The work of Estela Saez has repeatedly turned to the intermingling, even reciprocity, between identity-construction and physical space (land-home-shelter) and its contingent shaping of memory and time. Former collections of the Spanish jewellery artist bearing titles such as Terra, Goodbye Nest and Recovered Connections, document her preoccupation with reconciling mobility and belonging and alternate conceptual and material references to earth and sky, tradition and modernity, permanence and ephemerality.

On Curating Unexpected Pleasures-The Art and Design of Contemporary Jewellery: Susan Cohn in conversation | Art Jewelry Forum Design Museum, London, England December 5, 2012 – March 3, 2013 National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia April 20 – August 26, 2012 Susan Cohn has a longstanding career working across the art-craft-design divide. Living in Melbourne, Australia, she has been making artwork for more than 30 years and has exhibited extensively in Australia and overseas. Ben Lignel: What did you learn during this experience? Susan Cohn: The first “lesson” I learned from the project is that really not many people in the world know about contemporary jewelry. The second and probably most important thing I got out of this project is an overview of the field. How did you select the work for the show? Susan Cohn: I really wanted a democratic form of application process. I received a total of 553 submissions, featuring roughly 2500 pieces, and did a first selection of the work based on the following criteria. During this first phase, I would put potential themes next to each submission.

Quinta trends: VeraVivanco: joyas que nacen del arte Las pasiones son difíciles de contener. Por mucho que las disfracemos de pasatiempos, siempre terminan poseyendo parte de lo que somos. Algo así le pasó al historiador del arte y restaurador Sebastián Vera Vivanco. Partió haciendo joyas por hobbie hasta que se dio cuenta –animado por sus hermanas y amigas- que debía profesionalizarse, dando vida a su marca de joyería contemporánea Vera Vivanco. Hoy nos cuenta sobre ella. La propuesta de Vera Vivanco “Mis joyas buscan ser protagonistas del look, entregando color y formas atractivas. Los factores que influyen en el desarrollo de colecciones de Vera Vivanco “Influye lo que esté estudiando o investigando en el momento. Ahora estoy trabajando en otra línea que se llama Up, y está inspirada en la película del mismo nombre. Por último mi formación profesional es la historia del arte y la restauración, por lo mismo el mundo del arte es lo que me nutre y me mueve al momento de crear”. Una mirada a la escena de la joyería de autor chilena

Jewelry Design Create a luxurious ornament, a precious keepsake, a fabulous fashion statement What was true for Cleopatra 2,000 years ago is still true today: A fine piece of jewelry is no less than a masterful work of art, one we display on ourselves rather than on a wall. These treasures from past and present can be seen in museums around the world. Today, the creation of fine and costume jewelry is a multibillion-dollar global industry, offering many opportunities for talented people with the right professional training. In intensive classes that emphasize traditional techniques, you’ll master hand-rendering and casting, and analyze and appraise gemstones. Highlights FIT’s Jewelry Design program is the only one in the U.S. that offers not only studio courses (metalsmithing), but also design courses that focus on the two-dimensional aspects of jewelry fabrication. In this program, you’ll: meet industry leaders and have extensive opportunities to create a network of contacts.
