WEAR THE MAGIC POWER
Lucia Massei, Letizia Plankensteiner,
Isabell Schaupp, Salima Thakker
Exhibition period: 2 March to 3 April 2010
At Galerie Slavik spring is coming - in the midst of magic, enchanting and powerful visions.
The Austrian jewellery artist Letizia PLANKENSTEINER seduces with fantastic forms in exciting compositions. Wave-like matt-finished gold straps intertwine to a miniature wearable ring sculpture.
Lucia MASSEI enchants with imaginative creations for the neck and the hand. A delicate, seemingly dry twig on the pendant of the "Nina ....Nina" necklace – silver, 18 carat gold, shibuichi, pearls and pigments - sprouts golden leaves.
Isabell SCHAUPP, bearer of Galerie Slavik’s 2008 Grassi Award, presents powerful and imaginative creations in her special enamel technique. The red pistils in the "Small red flower" brooch made of silver, copper, enamel and sponge coral radiate in welcome of spring.
Open-work surfaces - interspersed with shiny brilliants, diamonds and colourful gems - imbue the enchanting gold and silver rings created by Salima THAKKER with life. Delicate and slender bracelets and necklaces in silver and patinated silver adorn the wearer.
Stefano MARCHETTI fascinates with his brooch and ring of gold cured with epoxy, which makes his works reminiscent of fairly lands.
Come and visit Galerie Slavik, let yourself be enchanted and find new power and energy.
