| Summary: | "Contemporary gold- and silversmithing encompasses a vast range. Increasingly, a daring, (self-)critical, and inventive scene is edging its way to the fore, focusing on challenging the innovative expansion of classical forms and motifs of jewelry, vessels, and hollowware. Purpose, function, and our normative understanding of beauty are placed on a new footing through experiments with materials and performative stagings. Socially relevant considerations and artistic references inform the objects' designs and are an invitation to an entertaining yet recondite "tour de plaisir" featuring 120 works by 29 artists--proof once more of gold- and silversmithing's controversial creative potential today." -- |
