胡茵菲(Anna Hu)是唯一一位在巴黎羅浮宮開辦個展的藝術珠寶設計師,她以色彩絢爛的藝術風格獨樹一格,有時單一作品甚至使用5至10種不同色彩的寶石進行創作,對於寶石色彩光澤有著高度掌握,在造型構思上更兼具西方現代設計與深厚的東方文化底蘊。
本書記胡茵菲最近5年的創作軌跡,引領讀者一同認識這位珠寶設計界的璀璨明星。
Anna Hu is a focused and single-minded artist, reaching new heights in haute jewelry design. Approaching her art with a distinctly East-meets-West philosophy and aesthetic, she constantly breaks new ground in haute jewelry design. Her extraordinary palette of colors, her knowledge of precious and semiprecious gems, and her daring experimentation with metallurgy and physical geometry have all contributed to works of unearthly beauty. Here, in the second volume of a projected multivolume series, Anna Hu looks back at the last five years and singles out a carefully curated collection of exceptional rings, bracelets, necklaces, and brooches.
Born in Taiwan, Anna Hu was trained at the Walnut Hill School of the Arts near Boston as a concert cellist. After receiving degrees from the jewelry design program at New York’s FIT, the history of decorative arts and design program at Parsons, and arts administration at Columbia University, she served apprenticeships at Christie’s jewelry department, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Harry Winston. In 2007 she opened Anna Hu Haute Joallerie, a French-Chinese fine jewelry brand specializing in one-of-a-kind jewelry executed by French ateliers using the rarest stones in the world. For nearly fifteen years, Anna Hu’s professional development has been guided by jewelry historian Janet Zapata, who first recognized Hu’s gifts when the young designer was studying at Parsons. In Symphony of Jewels: Opus II, Zapata surveys the impressive trajectory of Anna Hu’s career and looks to her future as one of the brightest diamonds in the world of contemporary fine jewelry design.
