American Faberge and World Renowned Jewelry Maker and Sculptor, Zadora, to Woo the Bespoke Middle East Market
Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof, the American Faberge and world’s foremost glyptics aka gemstone artist, has announced his plans to target the young, affluent Middle East consumer base market with unparalleled supply and demand credentials. Zadora is poised to open his first-ever atelier and an interactive online atelier in Dubai before the end of 2019 to exhibit his timeless pieces from his collections displayed in Forbes Magazine Galleries in New York (1992), Park Avenue Armoury Exhibition (1995, 1996 and 1997), Hamilton Gallery in London (2007), as well as replicas of his art pieces made for VVIP clients such as members of the British and Moroccan Royal Families and Duke of Bavaria, Hollywood Actors Johnny Depp and Sylvester Stallone, Multibillionaire and art collector Philip Niarchos, Fashion design powerhouses Valentino and Adolfo, Corporation giants such as Johnson & Johnson, Heinz, Campbell, Forbes and mega-developer and art collector Steve Wynn, to name a few.
Speaking about his expansion in the Dubai market, Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof said, “I am extremely happy to be in the center of now, Dubai. This city is an incredible place to be an artist and express yourself. The city has an incredible amount of talented people and discernment to luxury and aesthetic products. My brand creates bespoke jewelry from timepieces, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and brooches to custom-made housewares, figurines, and clocks.”
Recently, Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof transforms the works of M.C. Escher into sculptures. Escher is known for his mind-bending mathematical drawings and woodcuts from the 1930s that show people climbing up staircases on ceilings and other optical illusions.
After years of developing a relationship with the Escher Institute in the Netherlands, B.C. gem sculptor Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof and his team turned 10 of Escher’s drawings into large-scale sculptures made out of stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals.
Commenting about his exclusive rights to work with world-famous M.C. Escher, Zadora said, “I am not trying to better Escher. He was way ahead of his time. All I am trying to do is bring in a 3D element to his works – so they are fun for children and adults alike and I cannot think of a perfect destination to display these designs than the UAE and the Middle East market.”
