| book description |

The first English-language monograph on silversmith, sculptor, jeweler, and artist Wiwen Nilsson, whose work is a gem in the history of Swedish design. Featuring superb new photography, stunning archive imagery, and texts by leading international curators, commentators, and experts, this book is the first English-language monograph dedicated to the life and work of Wiwen Nilsson, a pioneer of art deco and mid-century design and silverware. Lavishly illustrated and deeply insightful, the book provides an overview ofÂ Wiwen Nilssonâ€™s personal and professional development, bringing the main facets of his artistic and functional production into sharp focus, as well as presenting important new research about his achievements. A particular emphasis is placed on the interdisciplinary nature of Wiwen Nilssonâ€™s practice, and notably on the bridge he built between the realm of fine arts and the world of design. The book includes thematic essays focusing on his silverware productsâ€”his sculptural oeuvre, his jewelry production, and his participation in Swedish and international exhibitions. Contributors include Dr. Flavia Frigeri (National Portrait Gallery, UK), Alice Rawsthorn (award-winning design critic), Dr. Teresa Kittler (University of York, UK), and Clare Philips (Victoria & Albert Museum, UK).
