Bijoux d’Artistes

Description

For thirty years, Diane Venet has collected artists' jewels: unique pieces by Picasso, Calder, Dalí, Koons and more than a hundred others. A nomadic collection, a pocket museum in perpetual motion.
The scenography bypasses conventional vitrines: transport crates, stripped back and deployed in their raw materiality, form the backbone of the display. Mounted on trestles or hung in a zigzag, they create miniature landscapes where jewels meet stone and cardboard offcuts.
Nothing was built that could not live on. The crates are now reused at the NJOY studio as stands for projects, materials and references - a radical stance against disposable design.
This scenography is itself one more jewel.
