Jingchu culture is a strong local culture represented by the Hubei region of our country. It has a long history and is an important branch of the splendid local history and culture in our country. The combination of Jingchu cultural symbols and turquoise culture to create jewelry has a long history. This paper discusses the application of Hubei Jingchu cultural symbol in the design of turquoise jewelry under the guidance of these two cultural contents. 1. Jingchu Culture Symbol and Turquoise Culture Jingchu culture is the representative of the local culture of our country. It is a special cultural content formed in a specific historical period and a specific region. At that time, in order to inherit the cultural content of Chinese vinegar, carry forward the long history, integrate the Jingchu culture into many treasure jewelry, and form the characteristic jewelry type with the cultural symbol of Jingchu as the background, it is the turquoise jewelry which combines the Jingchu culture.

  • Lauren Kalman Press Release
    ARTIST LAUREN KALMAN COVERS JEWELRY CASES FROM MUSEUM’S PERMANENT COLLECTION IN OVER 2,000 GOLDEN BRASS KUDZU LEAVES Lauren Kalman: But if the Crime Is Beautiful… October 20, 2016–March 15, 2017 NEW YORK, NY (October 14, 2016) – From October 20, 2016, to March 15, 2017, the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) presents Lauren Kalman: But if the Crime Is Beautiful.… Taking up the subject of gold, specifically its use in jewelry and adornment, the installation by metalsmith and performance artist Lauren Kalman is the second POV exhibition in MAD’s Tiffany & Co. Foundation Jewelry Gallery. The title refers to Austrian architect Adolf Loos’ 1908 treatise “Ornament and Crime,” an essay that has been called one of the most radical polemics of design criticism in the twentieth century. In it, Loos declares decoration regressive, degenerate, primitive, and criminal— characteristics he associates with women and minorities, and makes synonymous with moral decay. He advocates instead for a new aesthetic based on rational and unornamented design, which became known as Western-European modernism. In Kalman’s installation, she protests Loos’ spare aesthetic and commits a “crime” by covering the inside and outside of MAD’s upright white jewelry cases in thousands of golden brass 2 COLUMBUS CIRCLE NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10019 P 212.299.7777 MADMUSEUM.ORG leaves. They weave in and around modernist and contemporary jewelry pieces from MAD’s collection, upending the minimalist austerity of the gallery. To create the installation, Kalman surveyed MAD’s jewelry collection and chose over 60 gold pieces from the midcentury forward.

  • Jennifer Shaifer Thesis
    50 specialized in the lost-wax casting method to create his work and even wrote a textbook on the subject.113 Winston influenced the work of MAG members Robert Dhaemers, Florence Resnikoff, and Irena Brynner, among others. Robert Dhaemers utilized techniques and surface treatments such as patinas and engraving to give his jewelry a worn appearance. He didn’t believe in the “artificial maintenance” of keeping jewelry polished.114 Florence Resnikoff’s jewelry showcased her interest in color and metallurgy. She utilized several techniques to achieve her designs including casting, enameling, electroforming, and anodization of refractory metals.115 Franz Bergmann, an immigrant from Vienna, was one of the few jewelers in San Francisco who maintained an atelier. He forged wire and cut sheets to produce his works with a constructivist and/or surrealist designs.116 Irena Brynner, who apprenticed with Bergmann briefly, looked at jewelry as sculpture and applied techniques such as forging and piercing to realize her designs. Her later works simulated the appearance of the lost-wax casting techniques; however, she developed a new aesthetic using a tool called a water welder.117 Peter Macchiarini, another studio/shop owner, incorporated ideas of constructivism and anthropomorphism in his designs. His designs showcased internal structures with the use of patinas as well as found objects.118 Merry Renk replicated the geometric abstract structures found in nature. Her early works were nonobjective designs that emphasized the potential of metal by using interlocking forms, metal folding, and enamel. As she developed her design philosophy, she progressed into more realistic and less abstract forms.

  • Relationships with Jewellery?
    How might a collaborative approach between maker and wearer yield sustainable `end-user' relationships with jewellery?

Clare Elizabeth Poppi (Bachelor of Fine Art) A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master of Visual Arts Queensland College of Art Arts, Education and Law Griffith University December 2018 Abstract In recent years, there has been a growing movement within contemporary jewellery that engages notions of sustainability. Part of this movement has involved focusing on the ethical concerns surrounding jewellery manufacture and production, from precious metal mining and gemstone sourcing through to studio techniques, including recycling, chemical reduction, and energy use. While these issues are imperative because of their social and environmental impacts, many jewellers focus solely on the role of the designer in ethical jewellery making. By contrast, my research examines the role of the wearer in accepting responsibility for their consumption habits. This exegesis explores how maker and wearer can collaborate in various ways to create ongoing, sustainable relationships between the wearer and their jewellery. i Statement of Originality: This work has not previously been submitted for a degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the thesis itself.
