TAMAR DE VRIES WINTER: a silver and enamel beakerLondon 2008 With a flaring lip, the sides enamelled in a wave design over a linear ground, height 9cm, weight 10oz.Footnotes:Born in Jerusalem to a family of immigrants from Europe, Tamar was trained in the UK, where she lives and practices her work. Personal memories inspired by two cultures have had a major impact on her life and career as an enameller, jeweller and silversmith. The art of enamelling is central to her work. Digital technology—printing and fusing her own photographic images onto her metalwork—has enabled her to transform her ideas into objects that tell a story. Her interest in the marking of important life events with objects led her to create a range of ceremonial work.Tamar's work has been commissioned and collected both by private individuals and public institutions: the Victoria and Albert Museum (which recently acquired her 'Fragment' Bowl), the Jewish Museums in London and in New York, and the National Museum of Scotland. In addition to teaching in the UK and abroad, since 1996 Tamar is a co-director of Studio Fusion, a London gallery dedicated to contemporary vitreous enamel.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
