An ambitious retrospective exhibition looking at Lisa Walker’s 30-year career as a pioneer of contemporary jewellery. Previously shown at CODA Museum in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands (2020); Museum Villa Stuck in Munich, Germany (2019), RMIT Design Hub Melbourne (2019), and Te Papa in Wellington (2018), Te Uru is delighted to present this major exhibition across two floors, accommodating over 250 pieces – a homecoming for these works that have travelled across the world.
Since departing our shores, each exhibition has been added to, re-thought and re-designed by Walker to present a constantly updated, contemporary presentation. Te Uru’s exhibition will span Galleries Two, Three and Four – a major installation for Te Uru's 2021 programme. Each space will loosely cover three significant chapters in Walker’s career.
Accompanying the exhibition will be Lisa Walker’s sell-out publication An unreliable guidebook to jewellery — republished by Perimeter Books and RMIT with support from Creative New Zealand. This new iteration features additional pages and information, and is available on ArtNow's Art Books section.
