Metal & Silver

Adi Toch explores the world of mirrors in a compelling new series of work which is on view in an exhibition titled, Between Presence and Absence, at Galerie Marzee in The Netherlands, until April 22.

Spazio Nobile Studiolo presents Fabian von Spreckelsen, Soul Memories, a solo exhibition of new work featuring von Spreckelsen’s unique paintings made with metallic materials including bronze, copper and steel, as well as his functional collectible furniture collection in which he uses leather and iron.

TLmag spoke to artist and jewellery designer, Wallace Chan, ahead of his new exhibition, TOTEM, which opened in Venice on April 20th.

Valcke Art Gallery’s recent exhibition presents the transformative works of three distinct craftsmen: David Huycke, Christophe Desvallées and Guy van Leemput. TLmag talks to director Johan Valcke about the exhibition, as well as his take on the contemporary Belgian art scene.

What people get up to during a polar vortex might not be that newsworthy but in rare cases, these periods of extreme weather can inspire experimentation and spawn fresh output. For Chicago-based Steven Haulenbeek, one such occasion served as a defining moment in his career.

TLmag caught up with metal artist Adi Toch to talk about her fascination with sound, how it’s incorporated itself within her work, the essence of performativity embedded in her practice and creating objects that intentionally “misbehave”.

Renowned artist David Huycke discusses his unique practice in the technique of granulation and the “risky business” of silversmithing in the 21st century
