Post Holiday interview with Ruudt Peters talking about failure.

I hope you had a good holiday and that you are looking forward to the new year.

To celebrate what the new year might bring, I want to share an interview I did last week with an artist who lives in Amsterdam and has a practice that is both jewlery and art – and sometimes an exhibit fails, as in the one he describes, but that failure is somehow a mark of pride in his work.

Look at his unusual piece below that is cast in silver, gold, and ceramic as well.

Ruudt Peters studied jewellery design at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam; in 1990 he became the head of their Jewellery Department. Peters taught there until 2000. Since then, he has taught at Adellab Konstfack in Stockholm, Sweden; and Alchimia Contemporary Jewellery School in Florence, Italy. In addition to his professorships, Peters also teaches week-long intensive workshops from his summer studio in Ravenstein, the Netherlands.

Peters has exhibited his sculpture, objects, and jewellery in museums and galleries in Europe and the United States. His work is in the collections of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the CODA Museum in Apeldoorn, the Schmuck museum in Pforzheim, the Danner Stiftung in Munich, the MAD Museum in New York City, the Mint Museum in Charlotte, NC and the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY.
