Jonas Noël Niedermann

March 14 - April 4

Chesterfield Gallery is pleased to present the first solo exhibition of Swiss sculptor Jonas Noël Niedermann, in the United States, entitled LOOPS. Ever-fascinated by the opportunity to create new styles and techniques, LOOPS is the result of a years-long dedicated exploration combining hot and cold sculpting techniques, including modular assembly, to invent new ways of designing and creating in glass. Developed by the artist during his time as Glass Master at Holmegaard Værk, the Nordic design museum in Denmark, Niedermann’s LOOPS and Modular Shapes are distinct bodies of work built using the same visual vocabulary to create a seamless look into the future of what is possible in glass and the history of where it came from.

Blown, carved, assembled, and etched, Niedermann’s Modular Shapes series brilliantly builds on his LOOPS and illustrates the artist’s forward-thinking design sense, drawing on the mastery of his craft honed over the course of almost 20 years of glassmaking. Niedermann’s command of the material is evident through his sleek lines and smooth shapes, with thoughtful brass finishing on the bottom of each piece that creates a subtle glow underneath the glass.

Jonas Noël Niedermann is represented by Chesterfield Gallery in New York and has shown widely throughout Europe, including Italy, Germany, Denmark, Austria, Bulgaria, and his native Switzerland.
