In projects ranging from a mass-produced postage-stamp to weighty and monumental works of sculpture, from architectural friezes for social housing developments to intricate marquetry cabinets, they have created an expressive revival of the decorative arts for the twenty first century.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Following studies at Design Academy Eindhoven during the 1990s, Smeets (1970, Hamont-Achel, Belgium) and Tynagel (1977, Bergeijk, the Netherlands) established Studio Job as a joint enterprise in 1999. Deploying bold graphic patterns and cartoonish vernacular forms, as well as the elaborate decorative sensibilities and dark mood of the North European Gothic, their work was, from their earliest collections onwards, utterly unlike anything else on the international scene. Within a few years, their attention-grabbing creations had become a regular feature of exhibitions in museums and specialist galleries, and had started to find their place in important international collections.<\/p>\n<p><b>METADESIGN<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Key among the early support for the Studio was an exhibition at Hasselt\u2019s Z33 House for Contemporary Art in 2007 \u2013 <i>No. 16 STUDIO JOB<\/i> \u2013 the first extensive monographic show dedicated to their work. The exhibition included cabinets from the <i>Perished <\/i>(2006) series, inlaid with a pattern of zoological skeletons in Macassar Ebony and Bird&#8217;s Eye Maple; outsized \u2018domestic objects\u2019 in bronze, glass and wood from <i>Home Work &#8211; Domestic Totems and Tableaux <\/i>(2006-2007); a patinated bronze castle and bust from <i>Oxidised<\/i> (2003); and jagged blackened and polished bronze seating from <i>Rock Furniture<\/i> (2003-2004).<\/p>\n<p>By the time of the exhibition, Studio Job had already worked with celebrated design firms including Bisazza, Koninklijke Tichelaar Makkum and Swarovski, but while they exhibited at design fairs and exhibitions, and were represented by design galleries, their work did not (and does not) fit comfortably into a utilitarian discipline. Instead, one might see their oeuvre as artwork that uses the vernacular language of design. Or perhaps as meta-design \u2013 objects that appear to be functional, but the actual \u2018function\u2019 of which is to provoke questions surrounding use, making, collecting and the acquisition and display of wealth and taste.<\/p>\n<p>Taste, and its related snobberies, are prime Studio Job territory. The trappings of class and social position are regularly inverted or subverted. In the <i>Home Work<\/i> series, domestic objects including pots and pans, a coal scuttle and a mug tree are rendered in outsized, polished, bronze. These objects are not only mundane, but represent a superannuated nostalgic vision of a simple, unpretentious working homestead. In the <i>Gold Biscuit<\/i> (2006-2007) series, gilded crockery stands in for the \u2018best\u2019 china of a bourgeois home, the tasteful pattern motifs of the original here replaced with symbols of the counterculture of another age: CND insignia and peace signs.<\/p>\n<p><b>ICONOGRAPHY<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The <i>Robber Baron<\/i> (2007) collection includes a bronze wardrobe with \u2018shot through\u2019 doors and a glistering surface relief compiled from iconography relating to weaponry, toxicity and pestilence. A table top is formed from polluting clouds pouring from factory chimneys and a safe is opened by twisting a clown\u2019s nose: wealth, of the kind required to purchase pieces such as these, is traced back to roots in violence, dirt and exploitation.<\/p>\n<p>Already, in these earlier collections, Studio Job drew on the skills of expert artisans to explore and expand the language of traditions such as marquetry and bronze casting for a contemporary context. In the following years, the studio repertoire expanded to include works in stained glass, hand-painted Delftware, and cast iron. Their work steadily established itself as an ongoing reproach to the anti-embellished minimalist forms that functioned as shorthand for good taste, and which seeped further and further into the mainstream in the decades that followed Modernism. Studio Job relished kitsch; the clash of ancient tradition and modern iconography; painstaking handiwork and cartoonish graphic shorthand: they represented the laughing triumph of form over function.<\/p>\n<p>The Z33 exhibition featured many works already purchased for the collection of the Groninger Museum in the Netherlands. Other significant monographic shows at major institutions followed, including the Groninger Museum itself in 2011, and, more recently, the 2016 exhibition Studio Job MAD HOUSE at New York\u2019s Museum of Arts and Design. Their work is represented in leading collections worldwide, including the Cooper Hewitt and MoMA museums in New York; Rijksmuseum and Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, London; Al-Sabah Collection, Kuwait; and the Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein.<\/p>\n<p>While their studio practice has expanded over the years to include commercial (if highly unconventional) product designs for brands such as Moooi and Seletti, Studio Job\u2019s core concern remains an exploration of the teetering edge between use and ornament, excess \u2013 be that of ideas, materials, references or all of the above \u2013 and clean, precise, composition.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3815\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-960x960.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-960x960.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-656x656.jpg 656w, https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wanderful.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/StudioJob-PerishedScreen-1920x1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1536px) 66vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Hettie Judah: <i>We often look into an artist\u2019s early life and the atmosphere and geography in which they were raised, and try to identify the origin of particular preoccupations and themes in their later work. If we were to do this with you as a designer, what elements from your own background would you identify that have fed through into your later work with Studio Job?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Job Smeets:<\/b> To answer your question with a thought: aren\u2019t there always also other reasons? I totally believe in influences from our youth: not only for artists, but for everyone. But in adolescence, university and later, crucial influences \u2013 a breakup, for example \u2013 play an important part.<\/p>\n<p>The length of the \u2018early life\u2019 depends from person to person. Personally \u2013 and I don\u2019t think I am an old soul \u2013 it might be that my early life continues until the end. Within the work it\u2019s different though. It\u2019s more visual. <i>Containers<\/i> (2000), our first bronze works are lovely, na\u00efve and raw, but our work changes through the influence of time. In work you become increasingly expert, but life stays abstract.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>The design world is very international: you sell your work in London, New York and Miami and have collectors all over the world. Do you think that there is still a \u2018sense of origin\u2019 in your work as a designer from Benelux?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>JS: <\/b>The more you travel, the more you become universal or international. You gain icons, archetypes and memories. Yes, we\u2019re from Europe. Benelux is too small a categorisation \u2013 it\u2019s just a political or commercial border. When it all goes well, you leave the nest and try to fly on your own. To develop a voice of your own.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>Do you think a sense of origin is tangible in your work though?<\/i>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: \u2018Le Plat Pays\u2019 \u2013 as Jacques Br el puts it. Literally a thick fundament of humus, clay, soil, bricks and turf in the Low Countries. All nicely compressed and solid: hardened by time.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ:\u00a0<i>We\u2019ve spoken in the past about your interest in particular museum collections in Europe \u2013 could you tell me about the aesthetic and decorative arts traditions that inspire you and on which you draw in your work?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: Well I must admit, looking at our work, it becomes more and more universal, and less connected to a specific area. It took four years for us to study Modernism, ten years to study the ornament and more than fifteen years to study Europe. We work a lot in the US right now, which is also inspiring! Donut!<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>What role have museums played in your own career? Is support from non-commercial institutions important?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: Museums are very important. They give you the chance to focus solely on the work and the installation. The story\u2026 Collectors collect the bricks and the museum builds. Although these days, private collections more and more take over the public collection. Is that a pity? Maybe\u2026 maybe not. But without the collector there is no museum\u2026 I\u2019m equally happy with both: institution &amp; private sector. Both feed each other.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>While art and modern design are popular exhibition subjects in museums, decorative arts seem not to be \u2013 at the Wallace Collection in London for example, visitors tend to look at the paintings but not the beautiful pieces of furniture or porcelain. Do you think people no longer know how to \u2018read\u2019 these works? Do you think that we\u2019re so used to mass-produced goods that we have lost our appreciation for them?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: Is that true? I always look at everything to be honest. Don\u2019t underestimate the viewer! But if true: decorative arts need better PR and maybe even a better name.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>We last spoke quite a few years ago after perhaps the Delftware collection or a collection of marquetry cabinets \u2013 you were very inspired at the time by what seemed like a constant search for different artisans to work on each subsequent collection. I have a couple of questions in connection to this. Are you still regularly engaging with new disciplines in the applied art and crafts?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: Yes, sure, but only because we need them. It\u2019s not because we want to display crafts per se.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>How much does your investigation into craft techniques inform your design work <\/i>\u2013<i> is the craft always at the service of the design or do you sometimes design to showcase a particular craft?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: The craft is always at the service of the design: always. The brain is the filter, not the machine. Unless the brain asks me to leave the decision to the machine of course!<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>It seems to me that the high production standards in your work rely to a large degree on your engagement with groups of skilled artisans \u2013 are you always able to find the skills that you need or have there been some techniques that interest you that have slipped out of the makers\u2019 repertoire?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: Well, it depends on whether we\u2019re working on an object or a product. We are very \u2018Renaissance\u2019 and occupy a broad field: sculpture, design, fashion, music, architecture and graphics. As long as the translation is perfect and the work contributes we are happy.<\/p>\n<p><b>HJ: <i>I regularly hear the complaint that young people are no longer interested in learning applied skills that will lead to a role in making \u2013 they all want to design, be that in fashion or products \u2013 does it worry you that you might be part of the final generation of designers that can work with highly skilled and experienced artisans in the way that you do?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>JS: No, we do it all. Super unique and super industrial\u2026a ten-meter-high sculpture in Miami and the King\u2019s postage stamp in The Netherlands that\u2019s produced in an edition of ten million. But also: do you really believe avant-garde design is becoming more and more industrial?
