Beading Think Tank ...

Dear Beaders,
It is truly a pleasure to bring you this issue of

Perlen Poesie.
Our autumn issue is just bulging with beautiful

designs and interesting information. You will find
the glamorous, the definitive and the romantic:
earrings, brooches, bracelets, necklaces and
pendants. This time, as well, we present you
with a varied artistic ensemble: our contributing
designers stem from India, Greece, Hungary,
Italy, Israel and more – each with a delightfully
different style.
Bead artist Nadya Gerber has a special gift: the

impressions you get from natural landscapes
hold a special fascination for her – which she
then skillfully implements in her jewelry design.
You can read about her beginning on page 10.
And her autumnally-inspired necklace with its
reddish-gold ears of grain will surely inspire
you.
Perhaps you would like to learn a new

technique? Beginning on page 20 we feature
the Diamond Weave (DW) pattern developed by
Gerlinde Lenz. It has very special advantages,
boasting a multitude of uses and possible
variations; illustrated in Cath Thomas’ Faraday
bracelet on page 80.
And now a look into the future: Grab your 3

® calendar and make a note of the date of the next
BEADERS BEST 2018 Bead Art-Crossover Fair.
See page 22 for more information. It will be a top
class 4-day international event with wonderful
possibilities!
Until then, I hope you enjoy browsing through

and doing the projects.

and was awarded the 3rd
place in the category "Crys-

The basic structure of glass is, in principle, the same as that of
crystals, with the same bonds and basic building blocks - but it is
more like a network. And one sees gradual transitions from one

he skilled glass technician doesn’t only have techni-
cal understanding, but also a courageous and creative
side. Her mother was a mathematics teacher, her grand-
mother and great-grandmother instructed her in needle-
work. Nadya has masterfully combined elements made
from seed beads with leather, wire mesh, crystals, toy figures and
whatever else she feels like – she’s even used a phonograph record
(“Legendary Marlene”, 1st Place at the IBA 2013). Bead embroidery
is most often used for the creation of the basic idea, while additional
elements in other beading techniques make the works light and airy.
Her preferred stitches are herringbone and peyote. “Competitions are
a source of inspiration: a theme is given – what can I do with it? I have
become bolder and have achieved success with the unusual. Through
competitions I can make my works known.” k

I was seized by the Art Nouveau fever

the designer. A neat and

also of respect for the buyer.” The artist in her studio. “Here, I feel like

adya‘s larger designs look like “con-
sciously arranged disorder”: her
compositions are freestyle, never
symmetrical (“too boring”). They de-
light the eye, are harmonious – you
never get tired of looking at them. We asked her:
“Do you have any special method or procedure?”
Her answer: “I continually teach myself things –
I borrow books from the Düsseldorf University
Library on color theory, mathematical theories of
design such as the golden ratio and also stylistic
eras. They influence me. I don‘t want to stagnate – 17
but rather further develop myself.”
What inspires Nadya? “For a time, I was inspired
by a technically abstract style and steampunk ele-
ments, but then I was seized by the Art Nouveau fe-
ver – I’m talking Mucha, Gustav Klimt, the Viennese
Secession (Editor’s Note: Alphons Maria Mucha, a
poster artist, graphic artist, illustrator and painter
born in Prague in 1839; Gustav Klimt was a painter
born in 1862 near Vienna, he is known for his geo-
metrical-spiral lines and his mosaic-like patterns
in gold, silver and vibrant colors; the Viennese
Secession was an art movement founded by Klimt
in 1897, a Viennese association of visual artists who
rejected the conservative definition of art, creat-
ing the Viennese version of Art Nouveau). I love the
flowing lines, floral ornaments as well as geomet-
ric forms of Art Nouveau. Lately, I’ve been letting
myself be inspired by nature (“The Muse”, “Under
the Tuscan Sun”, “Blowball”) and city tours (her
handbag “Amsterdam. Van Gogh. Irises”).” k

The Bead Art Fair
BEADERS BEST +++ April 5 – 8, 2018 ++

Concept update on 15,000 m
For the first time in Europe – 3 creative
trade fairs combined in one exhibition hall.
As everyone knows: Glass beads are used in classical jewelry design, in fashion jewelry
and in the works of jewelry hobbyists. Consequently, the BEADERS BEST Bead Art Fair
has now found its natural place: together with the Kreativ-Messe (Creative Fair) and the
Mineralien-Messe (Minerals, Fossils, Jewellery Exhibition) in the large new Exhibition
Hall 10 at the Messegelände (Trade Fair Grounds) in Stuttgart, Germany.
Many elements and techniques are combined in modern creations: glass beads,
cabochons, silk ribbons, jewelry wires, chain maille rings and other handicraft
components are brought together to create wearable treasures. These components as
well as the know-how for how to use them are available at the fair!
Professional designers, jewelry shop owners, hobbyists, lovers of individually-crafted

unique jewelry, lampwork bead artists, and even occupational therapists will find
22 everything they need in one exhibition hall at the BEADERS BEST and the neighboring
Creative Fair and Minerals, Fossils, Jewellery Exhibition. The unique concept is ideally
suited to inspire your creativity!
As is our tradition, the BEADERS BEST location – with its lounge atmosphere – invites
you to experience its relaxed manner while buying your supplies, exchanging information
and learning new things. Workshops on jewelry-making techniques and designs can be
booked in advance or spontaneously taken. National and international artists lend their
knowledge and present their works. On the first day of the fair, “The Night of the Senses”
begins at 6.00 pm, with the “Tutors’ Reception”, where you are able to meet and mix with
the workshop artists.
We cordially invite you to enjoy this event together with us. Details for exhibitors
are available on the website at the end of September. Workshop offers can already be
uploaded here: www.perlen-poesie/beaders-best/workshops

n the white walls hang framed paintings – not in
oil or watercolor, but three-dimensional – like
pastures “painted in beads”. They are not mere-
ly embroidered next to one another, but super-
imposed on each other, peeking out – mostly
bouquets of flowers, some solitary and delicate, others in
lavish abundance, as spring, summer or autumn bouquets.
“Painting” is the right term here: light, shade, hues, depth,
leaves are laid out in shadings of green, the individual flow-
ers consist of light to dark (bead) tones – you can see the

Dorothea Therese Plenhart, born 1924 in Gdańsk-Ohra
(then a free state with mainly German-speaking population,
now part of Poland), is the creator. Even as a little girl she had
loved to play with beads and buttons, had embroidered the
clothes for her doll. She also studied tap dancing and ballet.
During the war she had dance engagements on the stag-
es in Hanover, Gottingen, Bochum and Donaueschingen (all
in Germany). At the end of the Second World War she re-
turned to the bombed-out Gdansk to bring the family to the
West, was persecuted politically and even imprisoned for a
while. Financial compensation and reparation for that time
finally took place some decades later. For the time being she
stayed in Poland, learning the language, earned a Diplom [a
European university degree] as a choreographer and trained
the Polish National Ballet, for which she also designed and
embroidered costumes.
After a brief marriage she left Poland, as many did at that
time, with her small daughter. Again in Bochum, Germany,
she opened her ballet school in the 1960s. Through an acci-
dent on stage at a young age she suffered a knee injury that

never healed properly, and which hindered her in free dance

movements. But she concentrated on what she could do:
she designed choreographies for floor gymnasts, tourna-
ment dancers and figure skaters, organized ballet matinees,
and designed costumes for the performances at the festi-
vals, such as the Ruhr Theater Festival in Recklinghausen, 55

the thread ends into the beadwork helps to

The part marked in red is the outer edge of
