Contemporary jewellery’s subtle progression towards becoming more reflective of sociopolitical phenomena will be ‘officially’ recognised (and given a name) in Munich this March.
The exhibition SCHMUCKISMUS, curated by Karen Pontoppidan, Professor of Goldsmithing at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste München, will showcase works from a new generation of makers. Over 150 pieces, many of them made for the occasion, will be exhibited in humble plywood boxes under the spectacular glass dome of The Design Museum. It’s hard to name a higher or more important stage for contemporary jewellery.
