Charity Pin Badges by Liam Gillick
The Charity Pin Badges Project started in 2012 with British artist, Liam Gillick – who designed the German Pavilion at the 53rd Venice Biennale in 2009 – in support of the children’s charity, UNICEF. With Gillick on board, B.H. Mayer's had gained a major figure representing »socially engaged artistic practice«, a genre that does not forsake its social responsibility. With his wide spectrum of artistic activity, ranging from brightly coloured minimalist sculptures and expansive installations through to music, publications and plays, this artist picks up on a key impetus for the modern spirit: the interaction of the aesthetic with the social.
The piece of jewellery is kindly marketed for us by renowned art and audio book publisher »Brigade Commerz«. The net proceeds from sales go to the children’s charity, UNICEF.
Limited edition of 50 pieces.
