Timeline
Warwick Stephen Freeman (born 5 January 1953) is a New Zealand jeweller.
Freeman was born in Nelson in 1953, and was educated at Nelson College from 1966 to 1970.
He began making jewellery with Peter Woods in Perth in 1972.
He returned to New Zealand the following year and established a workshop in Nelson before moving to Auckland in 1975.
In 1977 he worked with Daniel Clasby, and with Jens Hansen in 1978.
Freeman was a member of the Auckland-based jewellery co-operative Fingers between 1978 and 2003.
In the early eighties, Freeman was a prominent member of a group of jewellers who began exploring the use of local materials in contemporary jewellery.
Their work reflected a changing New Zealand cultural and political environment.
“We were caught up in a historical moment triggered by the new Labour government,” Freeman recalls.
“They declared us Nuclear Free, and started developing a foreign policy that was about living in the South Pacific as opposed to being an adjunct of Europe.
Our work got swept up in it and adopted by locals as ‘emblematic’ in the way jewellery can.”
James Mack called Freeman "one of the guiding lights" behind the 1981 Paua Dreams exhibition, which was instrumental in elevating the status of paua shell from its association with the tourist market to a precious material in contemporary New Zealand jewellery.
In 1983, Freeman and fellow jeweller Alan Preston were asked by Mack, then director of The Dowse Art Museum, to select items from the Auckland Museum's collection for a 1984 exhibition at The Dowse titled Pacific Adornment.
Freeman was one of twelve jewellers selected for the landmark 1988 Bone Stone Shell exhibition, developed by New Zealand's Craft Council for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and shown in Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
In 2002, he received an Arts Foundation of New Zealand Laureate Award.
In the same year he was named 2002 Laureate by the Françoise van den Bosch Foundation, based at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
In 2011 Freeman collaborated with Octavia Cook on the exhibition Eyecatch at Objectspace gallery in Auckland.
The first photographic exhibition held at Objectspace, the show looked at the relationship between jewellery and photography.
Freeman was the founding chair of Auckland contemporary craft and design gallery Objectspace, and in 2013 became a Governor of the New Zealand Arts Foundation.
In 2013 he was also the 'featured master' at the German contemporary jewellery festival Schmuck.
In 2014 Freeman co-curated Wunderrūma: New Zealand Jewellery with Karl Fritsch, a touring exhibition of New Zealand jewellery that showed at Galerie Handwerk in Munich as part of the Schmuck festival, at The Dowse Art Museum, and at the Auckland Art Gallery in 2015.
His works are held various New Zealand and international collections, including at the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the Auckland War Memorial Museum, the Powerhouse Museum, the Neue Pinakothek, The Dowse Art Museum, the National Gallery of Australia, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
