Daniel Brush,
the Art of Line and Light

L’ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts presents an exhibition dedicated to the American artist Daniel Brush (1947-2022), from June 8th to October 4th, 2026, in Paris.

“Daniel Brush, the Art of Line and Light” showcases more than 75 of the artist’s jewels and objects, some of which leave his New York studio for the first time.  This monograph explores the work of this modern artist, sculptor, draftsman and thinker, who was also a goldsmith and jeweler.

Daniel Brush, a modern-day alchemist

A self-taught artist, Daniel Brush embodies a vision that transcends artistic boundaries, fuelled by his exploration of light, materials and line.

He has profoundly transformed our perception of jewellery by questioning its functions — whether decorative, emotional or talismanic — as well as its connections to the body, femininity and fashion.

Curated by his wife and collaborator Olivia Brush, alongside jewellery historian Vivienne Becker, the exhibition demonstrates Daniel Brush’s ability to transcend the boundaries between art and jewellery.
