ART IN MOTION
Najja Moon & Yayoi Shionoiri in Conversation
Watchmaker Vacheron Constantin celebrates “Art In Motion,” a special project with artist Najja Moon, in dialogue with the work of the late Christ Burden. Whitewall‘s editor Katy Donoghue will moderate a discussion between Moon and Executive Director of the Chris Burden Estate, Yayoi Shionoiri. “Art in Motion” is on view at Vacheron Constantin’s Miami District Boutique November 29, 2021—January 2022, and is inspired by the watchmaker’s American 1921 driving watch and the fascination of movement and craftsmanship found in art and watchmaking. Pushing physical limitations each innovates in their respective metiers d’art.
