Contemporary Swedish Silver - DEKO | DEMO

Mellan den 18 oktober och den 1 december ställer trettio av Sveriges främsta silversmeder ut verk i två salar i Liljevalchs+.

Nutida Svenskt Silvers utställning tar avstamp i konsthantverkshistorien och utgår från frågeställningar som påvisar samspelet mellan värdet och hantverket.

The works on display will include jewelry, jugs and vases, made from a variety of materials including silver, pewter and other metals. The diversity of works reflects the different smiths' reflections on the common power of message and craft. Even decorative objects demonstrate ideas about taste, affinity and opinion. Throughout history, art and craft have been charged with ideals in all their forms, whether they take place in gallery spaces or through a brooch on a lapel.

The following blacksmiths/artists participate in the exhibition DEKO | DEMO at Liljevalchs: Anna Nordström, Annika Daevel, August Happ, Aviva Scheiman, Beata Grahn, Caroline Lindholm, Christina Sommarström, Christine Ramel, Filip Palmén, Hanna Havdell, Helena Sandström, Hubert Hydman, Ingrid Bärndal, Josefine Davidsson, Judit Fritz, Kajsa Avila, Karolina Hägg, Katarina Henriksson, Magnus Liljedahl, Margareth Sandström, Maria Börjesson, Mia Larsson, Niklas Ejve, Pamela Wilson, Pernilla Sylwan, Sarah Hurtigkarl, Simon Westling, Tobias Birgersson, Tove Knuts and Åsa Elmstam.
