Anton Cepka: Kinetic Jewellery

The jewellery and object artist Anton Cepka is one of the most important jewellery makers of the 20th century. Born in 1936 in Sulekovo, Czechoslovakia – now Slovakia – Cepka was a leading exponent of the modern jewellery after the Second World War. Today he is respected as the doyen of both Slovakian and Czech jewellery artists. Thanks to a formal language reminiscent of Constructivism, he remained untroubled by affairs of state over many years – unlike many fellow artists.
