Arnoldsche 2005, cm.23x29, pp.272 ill. colori. legatura editoriale cartonata, copertina figurata a colori. Gijs Bakker's career has been one of perpetual revolution rather than steady evolution. He made his radical break with the traditions of jewelry design around 1965, since when incessant renewal has been the only constant in his work. Bakker is certainly not on some quest for the ideal jewel: the designs grow out of his interest in what's going on in the world around him. What drives him to experiment with materials and techniques is the need to find the most appropriate form for those designs. The results amount to a fascinating survey - a kind of cultural diary of the past five decades.
