Friday the 14th of February David Bielander’s exhibition Demiurg will open at the Artothek & Bildersaal in Munich.
Friday the 14th of March at 14.00 hours, art historian Jorunn Veiteberg will give an introduction to the work of David Bielander.
Jewellery designer David Bielander (Basel, 1968) creates an unusual universe. Like a true demiurge (craftsman/creator-god) David Bielander builds his world by creating jewellery depicting animals, fruits and other motifs using available materials. Thus the beetle was already present in the closed spoon, and the coloured thumbtacks pointed out the path to the koi carp’s scales.Demiurge has been organized to mark the occasion of the awarding to David Bielander of the Françoise van den Bosch Prize for 2012, the international prize for contemporary jewellery. The exhibition features jewellery from his student days at the Munich arts academy up to the present day. It is based on an idea by Bielander that was further developed by Studio Aandacht. Trompe l’oeil was made the exhibition’s starting point to sharpen the viewers’ perception.
