Anna Hu in exhibition at Christie’s, it’s the top of her fast career fast as a light (of genius) ♦
Everybody know she is one of the stars of the world jewelery. But few would have guessed that Anna Hu would be the first contemporary designer to be invited by Christie’s to exhibit in her new hall at St James in London. A selection of his refined jewels, which are considered artworks, were on display for five days. On the other hand, in addition to incredible architectures with gemstones, the jewels of Anna Hu often inspire paintings and sculptures. In short, in many cases they are a kind of meta-art, that is art of art.
Anna Hu was born in Taiwan in 1977, but since childhood she has travels the world together with her father, a merchant of precious and rare gems. Curiously, however, she began her artistic fortune as a cellist: she even won several prizes, but a shoulder injury forced her to stop. Luckily, you could add. She then took the jewelery road. After the Gia, she placed in the drawer two academic titles related to jewelery from Parsons School of Design and Columbia University. A sort of record.
She worked at Christie’s, Van Cleef and Arpels, and Harry Winston. Then, she opened her exclusive jewelery boutique in December 2008, just 29 years old, at the New York Plaza Hotel. She create about than 30 exclusive Haute Jewelery pieces per year for lucky (and wealthy) collectors. In short, she has already achieved success. But in reality her career is still to be written.
