Galerie Rosemarie Jäger presents an exhibition by Ike Jünger and Otto Baier, with jewellery and forged objects produced by each artist respectively. While Ike Jünger explores the abstract forms of nature and the enamelling technique, Otto Baier prefers to explore forms and textures through the forge.
Artist list
Ike Jünger, Otto Baier
The German jeweller Ike Jünger was born in Munich in 1958. She trained at the Staatlichen Fachschule für Glas und Schmuck in Neugablonz, then studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Amsterdam. Following this she took a course in painting at the Ryksacademie van Beeldende Kunsten, Amsterdam.
Her intriguing and finely-detailed jewellery captures the beauty of often disregarded aspects of nature - such as crumpled dead leaves, a bundle of dry twigs, or as in this case curling bark - and presents them as abstract forms of great beauty. Her subtle enamelling conveys both colour and texture with extraordinary sensitivity.
"Bezeichnendstes Merkmal der Arbeiten von Otto Baier ist ihre ausserordentliche Schlichtheit - und ihr Ausdruck von zwingender Kraft, mit Formen und Proportionen, die wie selbstverständlich aus dem Werkprozess gewachsen scheinen." (Florian Hufnagl).
