Artist list
Annelies Planteydt
From 5 June to 1 October inclusive, CODA Museum presents work by visual artist Annelies Planteijdt from the period 1982-2016. From the very first works she made at the Rietveld Academie to the last works she created in 2015. Mooie stad is the first retrospective in the Netherlands and with this exhibition CODA Museum charts Planteijdt’s development as a jewellery designer from 1982 on.
Mooie stad shows the spectator the course and the interconnections in her work. Whether seen chronologically or from recent to older pieces: Planteijdt's work is always worth discovering. Besides finished work, CODA also exhibits design sketches and archive material like sources, articles and photos, which show the link between various disciplines and her work. They reveal the relationship with the world around her as well as the different perspectives. Together, her work and her archive form a whole. Like she says herself about this: I take things from my surroundings and then show the work again, in a much wider setting than the one where it originated. It is an exchange, a dialogue.
For the neck jewellery displayed in the exhibition, Planteijdt drew inspiration from her interest in structures and maps of place and time, like cities, rooms and cabinets. The necklaces in the series ‘Mooie stad’ can be read as such maps and have titles that tie in with this. For example, long necklaces that have the same origins bear titles like years or rivers and are then subdivided in quarters (of time or place), moments and crystals.
Her neck jewellery manifests itself on two levels: in an unworn or static form and in a worn or dynamic form. To Planteijdt, these two forms represent two worlds that, through all the intermediate shapes the necklace can take, stem from each other. Their flat elements make the necklaces two-dimensional, with a distinctly graphic character, especially when lying down.
A short biography
Annelies Planteijdt (Rotterdam, 8 January 1956) is a jewellery designer/precious metal worker and attended the Vakschool Schoonhoven (1974-1978) and the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam (1978-1983). Here she was trained by, amongst others, Onno Boekhoudt and the Italian guest lecturer Giampaolo Babetto, who both inspired her. In 1977, Planteijdt did an internship with Jan Tempelman and one with Cees and Anne Mulder. Planteijdt chiefly specialised in making neck jewellery, often working with gold and tantalium, pearls and pigments.
Besides this exhibition in CODA, new and recent work from 2017 is shown at Galerie Marzee in Nijmegen.
