The Art of Movement, Van Cleef & Arpels
The Art of Movement, Van Cleef & Arpels
Design Museum, London
23 September – 20 October 2022
Featuring almost a hundred creations from Van Cleef & Arpels' patrimonial collection, numerous archive documents and lender masterpieces, this exhibition illustrates the French High Jewellery Maison's constant quest to impart movement into precious materials.
Van Cleef & Arpels has constantly blended the excellence of its High Jewellery savoir-faire with great delicacy of vision in order to imbue the most precious materials with lightness and dynamism. Notable for their unique designs, their three-dimensional volume and their composition, the creations showcased stand out as manifestos of the Art of Movement.
Amongst a selection of pieces from the Maison's patrimonial collection, archives documents and private collector's creations, this exhibition draws visitors into a dreamlike world of movement and harmony.
This artistic journey is divided into four themes: Nature Alive, Dance, Elegance and Abstract Movements. Each highlights a facet of motion explored by Van Cleef & Arpels since its foundation in 1906.
