The Hour Glass 40 Presents: The Lives of Artists - A Series of Short Films by The Hour Glass

On the occasion of The Hour Glass's 40th anniversary, the specialist watch retailer will be premiering a series of short films over the next two months on nine of the world’s leading creatives and artisans. Featuring in order of appearance Maximilian Büsser, Sir David Adjaye OBE RA, Rexhep Rexhepi, Daniel Arsham, Wieki Somers, Roger W. Smith, Marc Newson, Oki Sato, Felix Baumgartner, and Martin Frei. Commissioned by The Hour Glass, these portraits profile the journey of these cultural wunderkinds and document their dedication to their craft. The Hour Glass’ fundamental mission is to advance watch culture by celebrating the patrimony and tradition of the watchmaking arts. As an organization that has devoted its entirety to this industry, we felt it was only appropriate that for our 40th anniversary, we pay tribute to this mission. And to do so by beginning a conversation on how watches and its makers intrinsically belong to the cultural milieu of contemporary art and design, providing a new point of departure for watchmaking. The Artling was pleased to be involved in the film shoots for the portraits of Sir David Adjaye OBE RA of Adjaye Associates, contemporary artist Daniel Arsham, Dutch designer Studio Wieki Somers, Australian designer Marc Newson and Japanese designer Oki Sato of nendo, in conjunction with the Then Now Beyond exhibition.

Then Now Beyond: Exhibition Opening

The Artling proudly project-managed Then Now Beyond, an exhibition of limited edition art and design pieces by some of the leading figures in the fields of contemporary art and design, commissioned on the occasion of The Hour Glass' 40th Anniversary. The Artling worked to come up with an initial brief for the artists and designers, inviting them to explore and engage with differing perceptions of time. Then Now Beyond presents these findings with a series of commissioned objets d’art by American artist Daniel Arsham, Australian designer Marc Newson, Japanese design studio Nendo and Rotterdam-based Studio Wieki Somers, that seek to challenge our relationship with the past, the present and the future.  The objects included in the exhibition were selected by a committee made up of Mr Michael Tay, Group Managing Director of The Hour Glass, British architect Sir David Adjaye OBE, and international watch specialist Mr Aurel Bacs.  The exhibition opened in November 2019, and continues until January 2020.
