Be the first to know all things jewellery here!
MJW Paper offers a tangible yearly snapshot of the field of contemporary jewellery, beyond Munich and Europe. With both physical festival events and ‘print-only exhibitions’ for those further afield, The Paper serves as a kind of documentation; a reference point for this moment in jewellery.
In this edition you’ll find interviews with artists showing work in Munich — Claire McCardle, on view at the IHM; Bezalel Academy, showing as a group Under the Stairs, and artist collective Externalities, with an off-site show at Atelier von Gierke-Berr.
The centre spread this year belongs to one of contemporary jewellery’s most elusive and unique masters — Therese Hilbert, honoured this year at the Pinakothek der Moderne. And a sampling of the field’s practitioners share the events they have their eye on in a new column, Pulse.
A mesmerising journey through the practices of David Clarke, David Bielander, Karl Fritsch, Paul Kooiker and Rudolf Bott, in our cover story, 5 Gentlemen Doing Things.
