Silver Triennial International: 20th Worldwide Competition -9783897906860

描述

Since 1965, the Association for Goldsmiths’ Art and the German Goldsmiths’ House Hanau have been organizing the Silver Triennial International to promote contemporary silversmithing. The 20th competition demonstrates the variety of works at a high level: 121 silversmiths from 21 countries submitted hollow- and flatware or free-formed works. The focus is not only on technical and artistic aspects; a large number of the entries also have a socio-critical and contemporary historical background.
An expert jury was again assembled this year: Dirk Allgaier, head of arnoldsche Art Publishers, Stuttgart; Dr. Claudia Banz, curator for design at the Kunstgewerbemuseum Berlin; and JaKyung Shin, silversmith and assistant professor at Seoul National University, Korea, selected 67 impressive silver works.

With a contribution by Francesco Colli and a foreword by Hartwig Rohde and Christianne Weber-Stöber.
