Hollow goose eggs, natural sponges, packaging, balloons, shoe soles, even his mother’s gallstones – the repertoire of things elevated to jewellery knows no bounds for the Norwegian artist Sigurd Bronger. His “portable objects” are turned into "wearables" by means of artful hanging mechanisms. Bronger's works invite us to see things anew; through the witty yet subtle cosmos of this extraordinary artist, our own world of things is becoming a good deal greater.
With contributions by Knut Astrup Bull, Paul Derrez, Petra Hölscher, and Céline Robin, and a foreword by Angelika Nollert. Featuring over 100 colour illustrations. Texts in German and English.
