Museum of Arts & Design  (NYC) Acquires two works by David Bielander for the permanent collection

Museum of Arts & Design (NYC) Acquires two works by David Bielander for the permanent collection

Two works by the Swiss born artist David Bielander are now part of the prestigious Museum of Arts & Design's permanent collection!

 

The Crown necklace from Bielander's Cardboard series- a trompe l'oeil play on value and hierarchies, wherein gold has been formed and manipulated into works perfectly mimicking corrugated cardboard, was chosen for acquisition and is currently exhibited in the exhibition MAD Collects.

 

The Cardboard Crown, which debuted in Bielander's 2015 exhibition DIY at Ornamentum, is number 3 of a very limited edition of up to only 5 (+1 AP) hand-made works.  Examples have recently been exhibited in Museum exhibitions in Switzerland, Italy and Denmark.

David Bielander given prize at the International Silver Triennial

David Bielander given prize at the International Silver Triennial

Cardboard Crucifix and Paper Bag vessel awarded the Robbe & Berking Prize

Germany, 2016 - 18th International Silver Triennial, worldwide competition.

 

Jury statement: The expectation placed on silver and its handling has been cleverly

overthrown and at the same time creates an appeal in the objects Crucifix

and Paper Bag (Wine), which, in turn, poses many a question. The materiality of

paper has been overridden through the utilization of silver. It is a subtle play on

traditional conceptions and values, in the material aspect as well as with regard

to the impact of the two objects. The design, form, structure, and technical execution

are all successful and convincing down to the smallest details.

 

The Paper Bag is available exclusively at Ornamentum and will be exhibited at Design Miami, 2016
