ABOUT


WITH & WITH is an experimental exploration of place.  Starting in October 2014, WITH & WITH will attempt to exhibit the selected works of established and emerging jewellers from around the world with works of those in museums. 

Museums exist as a connection to the past; as a catalogue of the established and accepted makers & artists of days gone. They are a way of looking to the past through the lens of art and what was accepted as art. WITH & WITH will attempt to connect the past with the present in context.


HOW WILL THIS WORK


http://www.thenoemi.com/" target="_blank">The Noemi, the artist behind this museum subversion, will play the roles of artist, curator, collaborator and facilitator who will coordinate, select, wear, document and publish the selected works to be featured on a weekly/bi-weekly basis.  

Los Angeles is home to many world-renowned art establishments like http://www.lacma.org/" target="_blank">LACMA, http://www.hammer.ucla.edu/" target="_blank">UCLA's Hammer Museum and http://www.moca.org/" target="_blank">MOCA are just a few of the collaborative spaces that will be the stages to the works featured in WITH & WITH. The year-long project will journey through these museums as well as many others through out the USA and abroad based on the The Noemi's travel schedule.

Every week will feature a new collaboration that will take place with a new artist's work, placed in a new museum or gallery that will be selected based on the work submitted and the in-house works on view. Appropriate online publicity will executed and on the day The Noemi will wear the work(s) into the space and document it accordingly.
