Jewellery Design: A Morning Talk with Kim Buck & Klara Bloch is a conversation held at Designmuseum Danmark in Copenhagen. It takes place in the museum's café, FORMAT., and is a relaxed way to spend part of a morning in the city while thinking about how jewellery is made and where it is going.
The conversation
Veteran goldsmith Kim Buck, who has worked with jewellery since 1979, speaks with jewellery designer Klara Bloch. Bloch is in her early thirties and became a designer without completing a formal education, a path that shapes the questions the two bring to the table. Their discussion centres on craftsmanship, experimentation and materials research, and on a playful approach to making. They also look ahead to the future of jewellery.
What to expect
- A talk rather than a lecture, with two practitioners at different stages of their careers
- Discussion of experiments and how materials are explored in the workshop
- Some talk of the upcoming LABORATORIUM exhibition with Kim Buck, which opens on 13 November
The setting suits an audience with an interest in design, craft or the museum itself. Designmuseum Danmark is the venue, so the talk can be combined with a visit to the museum's collections and exhibitions.
