The Real Thing - Jewellery and Objects by Kim Buck (Chinese, Danish, English, Hardcover)
Expected to ship within 9 - 17 working days

Kim Buck is partial to using well-known jewellery motifs such as
hearts, daisies, signet rings, and crosses as a point of departure,
but the materials can be anything from precious metals to found
objects and ready-mades. With surprising combinations, wordplay,
and a touch of irony, he questions the conventions of the jewellery
business as well as the way national and religious symbols are used
and abused. Even Denmark's national jewellery piece, the daisy
brooch, is up for scrutiny. To a conceptual artist, raising
questions and prompting reflection is of utmost importance. The
questions raised by Kim Buck through his jewellery and objects
touch upon values, ethics, and social status and reach far beyond
the jewellery field itself, disrupting our cultural habits and
understanding of the self. Text in English, Danish and Chinese.
