At the moment, there's a lot of new jewellery to see at Gallery Beyond in Antwerp, Belgium! First of all, you can visit the triple exhibition by Mielle Harvey, Jelizaveta Suska and Alejandra Solar. A great show with a fantastic match of different designers. Each of them created their own little 'landscapes'. As you can see in the picture below, their work is presented next to each other. Even though they have different concepts, there's a coherent atmosphere; a dreamy and poetic one. Next to this exhibition, you can see pieces by Alexander Blank and Adam Grinovich, who were recently added to the permanent collection of the gallery. In my humble opinion, they are both great additions to this already fascinating group of designers! There are also new pieces on display by designers who have been in the permanent collection for a while now. Here, you can discover wonderful new pieces by Jillian Moore; one of my favourite designers at Gallery Beyond! Now is the time to visit this gallery! Trust me, you won't regret it! 'Till 26 November 2017, Antwerp, Belgium WEBSITE From 23-26 November, Gallery Beyond will also participate in "To Be"; a project in Antwerp where recently graduated Antwerp students will present their graduation projects at 43 different locations. Gallery Beyond will be showing pieces by Dabin Lee.

Sadly enough, I will miss Munich Jewellery Week this year. I've visited every edition since 2012 and consider this week to be the highlight of the year in the world of contemporary jewellery. Normally, I would prepare myself to this trip by looking up all the events and exhibitions and making a list of things I'd really want to visit. Even though I'm not able to physically be there myself, I've made a list of the six events I really would have liked to visit. My top 6: 1) Die vier at IHM This is a collaboration of four jewellery designers: Julia Obermaier (DE), Pia Groh (AT), Catalina Brenes (CR) and Denise Ebert (DE). They all approach stone carving in a different way and each of them has her own aesthetic view on using this old technique. Even so, their work will create a cohesive whole. Their work was also shown at Inhorgenta last February and will also been shown at Unique; an international fair for applied arts and design from 19 until 21 May 2017 in Karlsruhe, Rheinstetten. During MJW17 it can be seen at the International Handwerk Messe in Munich from 8 until 14 March in Hall B1-728. www.facebook.com/Die-Vier-Idar-Oberstein 2) noMAD's Since 2014, the master students of PXL/MAD University of Hasselt, Belgium have organized a mobile exhibition concept at MJW. The previous projects where MAD About Schmuck, MAD Exhibitionists and MAD Pixels, where the students showed their work in a wearable jewellery exhibition. This year's students are: Moana Andreani, Kristy Bujanic, Lara Ceuterick and Pia David. The 2017 masters will visit Munich as the noMADs. They are 'urban nomads'; modern travelers who move between cities and are looking for new challenges. They will show a part of their graduation project in a portable presentation while visiting exhibitions and other events from 8 untill 12 March. And like every year, the students will be handing out a gadget! Every year the MAD gadgets where a must-have! Be sure to get your hands on one before they run out!

Time Perception vol.3 The Hatara project was started in 2015 by Annea Lounatvuori and Christine Jalio. Last year's Hatara Project was one of my favorite exhibitions during MJW 2016. I remember a great 'tour' of the expo by Christine Jalio; a great guide for a great expo. Together, all the different artists created a beautiful cohesive exhibition, still with a lot of diversity in designs, materials and concepts. I would be very surprised if this year's project would be any different! This year's participating artists are: Marine Dominiczak (FR), Morven Downie (AU), Elin Flognman (SE), Yasuyo Hida (JP), Anke Huyben (NL), Christine Jalio (FI), Helmi Lindblom (FI), Melina Lindroos (FI), Annea Lounatvuori (FI), Sara Malm (SE), Wiebke Pandikow (DE), Jelizaveta Suska (LV), Susanna Yläranta (FI), Ginta Zabarovska (LV). Lovaas Fürstenstrasse 6, 80333 München Facebook link: www.facebook.com/events/892767830865493/ n°42 on Current Obsession map 4) Selection by Christian Hoedl Four of my favorite jewellery designers in one exhibition! Anne Achenbach (DE), Karin Roy Andersson (SE), Paul Adie (SCH) and Sébastien Carré (FR) were selected for this expo by Christian Hoedl. 9 until 11 March Zieblandstrasse 2, Munich 5) Off The Shelf An exhibition of work by staff and students of Central Saint Martins, BA Jewellery Design course. Their expo last year was very cleverly thought out. The space where they where showing was well-used and the flyer they designed fitted the expo perfectly. When the flyer was folded it looked like a book, which you could place on a... shelf. I believe it's always interesting to see what students are creating and to see an exposition combining the works of students and teachers makes it even more interesting: the next generation and their mentors. Works by: Scott Armstrong, Coline Assade, Elena Lara Bonanomi, Caroline Broadhead, Lin Cheung, Lucie Davis, Yichen Dong, Veronika Fabian, Yayun Fang, Naomi Filmer, Melanie Georgacopoulos, Lucie Gledhill, Emily Grimble, Katy Hackney, Erica Heng, Stacey Huang, Miho Ishizuka, Jing Jiang, Kigen Kamijima, Jasleen Kaur, Giles Last, Michelle Lung, Marlene McKibbin, Maria Militsi, Sam Rodway-Smith, Carola Solcia, Florance Tebbutt, Anna Tuhus, Chloe Valorso, Max Warren, Silvia Weidenbach, Scott Wilson, Ariel Yi-Chen Tsai Facebook link: www.facebook.com/events/1327301107337667/ n°9 on Current Obsession map 6) No Expiry
A duo expo by Dimitar Stankov and Jonathan Hens; two Belgian designers who've collaborated before. Their work really compliments each other and will make for a very strong exhibition. I love the organic feeling that is present in both of their jewellery collections and... I simply just love black pieces of jewellery! From 9 until 12 March Welserstrasse 15 Facebook link: www.facebook.com/events/1848444578709971/?active_tab=discussion n°58 on Current Obsession map |
