Do prezentacji w Paniach Przodem wybrałam te prace, które należą do grupy bardziej innowacyjnych spośród reszty - czy w kolorze, tworzywie czy formie - np. złote kolczyki Niny Ehmck urzekają delikatnością i wyrafinowaniem, bransoletki Urlike Hamm skupiają wzrok na swojej niesamowitej strukturze, a praca Erich Zimmerman to piękno prostoty i subtelności.
Zachęcam do obejrzenia całej galerii pod adresem: www.thedavidcollection.com
Tymczasem prezentuję prace godne szczególnej uwagi wg mnie.
Jenny David founded The David Collection in New York City in 1990. Having been involved with the American Craft Museum (now the Museum for Art and Design) for many years while practicing law, Jenny identified a lack of representation in the United States of international artists working in many of the traditional craft media. Ready to begin a new professional career, Jenny opened the gallery in a loft in Chelsea, pioneering in what is recognized today as NYC's premier gallery location.
During the 1990's the collection focused on European artists who were either just emerging or who had substantial recognition abroad but not in the United States. The emphasis was on sculptural work in glass, clay and metal as well as jewelry.
In the Fall of 1991, within six months of opening the gallery, The David Collection was invited to participate in the international New Art Forms show in Chicago, known today as Sculptural Objects and Functional Arts (SOFA). SOFA is recognized as the premier international exposition of handmade work in the United States.
In 2002 The David Collection relocated one hour north of NYC and changed its focus to international contemporary studio jewelry. Now a "gallery without walls," The David Collection participates annually in SOFA Chicago and New York, as well as at select private shows across the country. The collection is also shown by appointment and through this web site.
The David Collection is recognized internationally for its representation of the best established and emerging jewelry artists around the world. Its artists work in many materials-from traditional fine metals and precious stones to more unusual and alternative materials such as paper and material fibers. Representation today includes more than 25 artists from over a dozen countries. (www.thedavidcollection.com)
For my presentation I selected those works which in my opinion are the most innovative - either in colour, form or material.
