« El proceso de creación empieza siempre con una « página en blanco ».
Un espacio vacío que, poco a poco, es transformado hasta que toma su forma final.
Objetos, fotografías, dibujos, … que hayan sido fuente de inspiración, o, que hayan formado parte de la ejecución de las piezas que se muestran, servirán para reflejar los diversos procesos creativos de cada uno de los artistas. »

« Transition is a never-ending movement, a perpetual passing by without stopping. The artistic creation process is a walk along unforeseen and unknown paths. A jewel is an object in transition, especially when it leaves its ornamental function and becomes an artistic work piece, when it acquires the strength to move us, when it sets in motion the symbolic being that lies within us. » Ramon Puig Cuyas.

« Transitar es un estado de contínuo movimiento, un pasar perpetuo, sin detenerse. El proceso de la creación artística es un transitar por territorios imprevistos y no conocidos antes. La joya es un objeto de tránsito, sobre todo cuando abandona su función decorativa y se convierte en objeto artístico, cuando adquiere la fuerza para conmovernos, cuando pone en movimiento a nuestro ser simbólico que todos llevamos con nosotros« . Ramon Puig Cuyàs Escola Massana (Barcelona)

« Si marcamos sobre un mapa el recorrido de nuestros pasos por este mundo desde el día en que nacimos, nos saldrán un montón de garabatos apretujados alrededor de unos pequeños nodos y algunas líneas más sinuosas, largas o cruces. Uno, nos ha conducido a la escuela, donde estamos en tránsito hacia la experiencia en nuestro quehacer como joyeros, pero ahora, es esta exposición de nuestras creaciones, prueba de ese viaje extraordinario que nos lleva hasta una nueva encrucijada en nuestra trayectoria: Schmuck München ».

SCHMUCK 2014 – 66th International Trade Fair, Munich – 12-18 Mars 2014

Schmuck ‘2014
55th Special Jewellery Show
66th International Trade Fair, Munich
de 12 Mar a 18 Mar 2014

 

This special exhibition is the eldest exhibition of contemporary jewellery work in the world. It takes place since 1959 every year during the International Trade Fair in March. Except the transport cost until Munich the participation in the special show is free of charge for you. Three contributions of Schmuck 2013 will be awarded with the Herbert Hofmann Prize. The prize commemorates Dr. Herbert Hofmann, the founder of the special show in 1959. In addition the jury of the Bavarian States Prize will look at the works in the special show. The Bavarian States Prize is awarded to 10 contri-bution of applied art within all contribution of the International Trade Fair. This prize is awarded with 5.000€.

More than 552 goldsmiths from 43 countries around the globe applied to participate in the special “Schmuck” (Jewellery) show at the International Crafts Fair in Munich next year. This great interest once again confirms the importance of this event in the context of contemporary jewellery-making and the significance attached to it worldwide. An above-average number of applications were received this year from Australia, Japan and Taiwan, but also from New Zealand and Argentina, the latter having been among the applicants for only a few years now. The selection for 2014 was made especially interesting thanks to the many new exhibitors nominated by the curator Jorunn Veiteberg of Copenhagen. Unusually, “Jewellery 2014” features over 25 new exhibitors, who will be represented in this renowned exhibition for the first time.

For the year 2014, a total of 66 participants from 25 nations were invited to exhibit. Numerically most strongly represented are goldsmiths from Germany, the Netherlands, Japan, Australia, Denmark and Sweden. The applicants grow younger by the year, an indicator that even before or immediately after finishing their training goldsmiths seek to compete in our special show, present their work to an interested public, experts, gallery owners and museum curators, and rapidly find their way into the jewellery avant-garde. “Jewellery” is an important venue for making a name for oneself in international goldsmiths’ circles, establishing contacts, and not least, witnessing the award of the prestigious Herbert Hofmann Prize on Saturday.

The special “Jewellery” show is characterized by the choice of certain themes which, in the eyes of curator Jorunn Veiteberg, represent salient traits of current jewellery design. As signs of our times and selection criteria, she sees found objects of metal or wood, things that bear definite marks of use, materials that speak an expressive, earthy language, forms and structures reminiscent of architecture, as well as masks, a tendency to mysticism, and forceful color schemes.

Honored as next year’s Modern Classic will be Dorothea Prühl, a goldsmith who lives in Halle. A teacher at Burg Giebichenstein Art College, she not only helped shape an entire generation of young goldsmiths but, over and above her teaching activity, has created an admirable, original oeuvre that holds a very special place within contemporary jewellery design.

Curator of “Jewellery 2014” is Jorunn Veiteberg, a Norwegian art historian who lives in Copenhagen. An arts journalist and exhibition curator, Veiteberg has taught since 2002 at the National Academy in Bergen, Norway. Since 2013 she has been guest professor at the University of Göteborg, Sweden, and chairwoman of the Norwegian Crafts Association. She has published in the fields of contemporary jewellery and ceramics. Veiteberg says it was a great honor for her to make the selection for “Jewellery 2014.” She was especially impressed by the quality of the submissions and their international range. For her as a Scandinavian, it was an enriching experience to see so many submissions from South Korea, Japan, Argentina, the U.S., and many other countries from around the world.

The Handwerkskammer organizes the special shows Exempla, Talente, Modern Masters and Schmuck at the International Handwerksmesse München with the Herbert-Hofmann-Award 2014 ceremony on Saturday 15th March at 4 p.m. We will show in our Galerie Handwerk the exhibition WUNDERRUMA – Jewellery from New Zealand.
