Dinh van, Eternally Contemporary
"Dinh Van, 60 Years of Freedom and Creation": this is the title of the new exhibition to be discovered from September 3rd to 13th at Christie's Paris, on the occasion of the brand's sixtieth anniversary.
An avant-garde sculptor, Jean Dinh Van , the founder, brought a breath of fresh air to the jewelry industry by advocating a very unique vision of jewelry and a stylistic language recognizable to all. At the crossroads of functionalism and aesthetics, Dinh Van quickly drew inspiration from everyday objects. In the 1960s, he made the Link, hitherto considered by jewelers as a secondary figure, the centerpiece of an entire collection. One also thinks of the dinh van handcuff jewelry, whose clasp is inspired by an apartment key, the Lock collection born in 1976, or the Razor Blade jewelry, Jean Dinh Van's tribute to his father's razor blades. A visionary brand that has undeniably shaken up the codes of jewelry, to which Christie's pays a beautiful tribute. A must-see!
