Craft/Material Studies Lecture: Biba Schutz
Biba Schutz Monday, September 15 at 3:30pm Location Fine Arts Building, Room 238 www.bibaschutz.com New York artist Biba Schutz has combined her various fields of study to create a totally unique look to her jewelry. She has a BA in design from American University in Washington, DC, as well as education in printmaking from Pratt Graphics Center in NY, and fiber from Instituto de Allende, in Mexico. Schutz’s jewelry shows evidence of both printmaking and fiber, as it is rich in positive and negative space, as well as being wonderfully tactile. Her work is also mostly constructed from oxidized sterling silver, bronze, and copper, giving warmth and depth to her already organic look. Biba Schutz has been featured in numerous publications.
