Hundreds of fascinating colour photos reveal the wearable artwork created by today's top art jewelers of Europe, including one-of-a-kind necklaces, brooches, bracelets, rings, and earrings in gold, silver, mixed metals, glass, enamel work, found objects, and more. The artists are arranged alphabetically so readers may see the entire scope of their work on the page together. The artists provide personal statements about their work and its significance. These artists have created small sculptures that adorn the body and draw attention. This is the first book in the series to focus solely on the artists of Europe. Included among them are new artwork from artists readers have come to know in the previous volumes and an introduction to the work of artists whose jewellery has not been previously seen. This is a valuable guide to current trends in art jewellery design for buyers, jewellery enthusiasts, collectors, and artists alike.

A musical instrument is a witness of the many human visual and aural sensibilities, beliefs and dreams. It is not just a technical object, but one with its own aesthetic properties, an object that makes a variety of characteristic sounds without necessarily the existence of a connection between its visual and sound aesthetic. Preserving an instrument means therefore preserving our culture, our history, our dreams.The conference, open to all museum professionals, was intended to present and critically discuss the latestresearch about diagnostic techniques applied to musical instruments as well as advanced conservation practices, use of materials, collections management, through the presentation of case studies. Its main objective was to be a forum for the exchange of information, seeking to promote the transfer of knowledge regarding the daily activities of preservation and to facilitate the exchange of scientific information and opportunities for collaboration among researchers from different backgrounds. The proceedings contain a selection of the papers presented in 2010 and 2011.

The human figure has been represented in clay throughout history and continues to evolve today. Artists are working with the figure in new ways, playing with materials and forms, and making use of new technologies to produce challenging and unconventional work, from the intact whole figure to the fragmented, hybrid and abstract. Ceramics and the Human Figure profiles an international range of ceramic artists, all practicing within the fields of installation and sculpture. Divided by broad themes, each chapter explores a variety of different expressive works. The book explores the role of figurative ceramics through history and in contemporary contexts. It also reveals the methods of six key artists, using how-to images to illustrate their techniques. For artists, collectors, and anyone interested in these themes, Ceramics and the Human Figure is an exciting survey of the state of the figure in clay today.

Dank der bewussten Reduktion in Form und Farbe entfalten die Keramiken der Schweizerin Sonja Duo-Meyer (geb. 1953) eine enorme Ausdruckskraft. Fast meditativ wirken die flieenden Silhouetten, finden sich Fixpunkte in der leichten Asymmetrie der Formen und es entwickelt sich ein raffiniertes Spiel von Licht und Schatten. Oberflache, Material, Korper und Technik sind durch ein minimalistisches Gestaltungskonzept verwoben, das Leere und Stille zelebriert.Objektfotografien und Ausstellungsansichten zeigen Gefae, Objekte und Wandinstallationen aus den Jahren 1992 bis 2017. Arbeiten und Eindrucke aus dem Keramik-Zentrum Tajimi, in dem sich die Kunstlerin als Artist in Residence intensiv mit den Techniken Japans auseinandersetzte, werden besonders hervorgehoben.Diese erste umfassende Monografie uber Sonja Duo-Meyer prasentiert in spannungsreichen Abbildungen und informativen Beitragen die Entwicklung einer nun uber 40 Jahre andauernden Karriere in der gegenwartigen keramischen Kunst.

This book looks at decorative tiles manufactured in Germany, Austria, Hungary and Bohemia/Moravia/Czechoslovakia in the years between 1895 and 1935. These ceramic tiles, used primarily on walls, floors, and stoves, but also furniture, trays and more, were an affordable decor element that made art accessible to many. They would also turn out to be some of the best examples of the Jugendstil and Secession movements in design: Both were variations of international art nouveau and rejected the conservative aesthetics of mainstream art. In Part I of the book, the author places these movements within the context of art history, then explores the history of the tiles. In Part II, a broad look is taken at arts and crafts and art nouveau tiles, including influences from other Western and Central European nations. With almost 600 color photos of tiles, this book will appeal to art historians, decorative arts aficionados, and anyone who appreciates beautiful, inspirational design.
