The Art & Times of Daniel Jocz, Hardback Book

The Art & Times of Daniel Jocz Hardback

Edited by Sarah Davis

Hardback

Description

The Art & Times of Daniel Jocz presents the entrancing and challenging work of American jewellery artist and sculptor Daniel Jocz.

There is a spontaneous quality to the work, yet it is always rich with meaning.

His open spirit is fully embodied in the 2007 neckpiece series An American's Riff on the Millstone Ruff.

Inspired by the extravagant scale of 17th-century Dutch ruffs at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, he decided to update them with automobile paint. Jeannine Falino takes an in-depth look at the twists and turns of Jocz's long career, from his early geometric sculptures to the fashion-forward flocked Candy Wear collection, and from his ruminations on Marlene Dietrich in the form of necklaces featuring enamel smoked cigarettes to the wall reliefs he explores today.

Wendy Steiner considers Jocz's place in the avant-garde through the lens of fashion and culture, while Patricia Harris and David Lyon explore his involvement in the rollicking Boston jewellery scene of the late 20th century.
