Jewelry exhibition for the eyes by IED




Jewels for the mind and the eyes. Those on display for two days at the ESH Gallery in Milan (via Forcella 7, on 14 and 15 July, free admission) are the result of the ideas of the graduates from IED Milan. The exhibition is titled Very very precious and includes nine collections for nine research projects by Jewelry Design Ied.

The contemporary art gallery, in the Tortona district, hosts the research of Italian and international authors between art, design and craftsmanship, in a dialogue between the tradition of decorative arts and contemporary aesthetics. The jewels are the result of the three-year IED course in Jewelry Design: a path that, as the organizers define, embraces the complex scenario of contemporary jewelery with a cultural, technical and design preparation, in a dialogue between two apparently distant realities, the approach personal and experimental and company-oriented design, both essential for future jewelery designers. In other words: they are not jewels designed to be worn, but as a creative expression.

Art design walking to Milan




Special jewels, between art and ornament, for 14 designers: Sara Barbanti, Paula Castro, Laura Forte, Saimi Joutsi, Kaori Juzu, Merıstėma Lab, Valentina Romen, Agustina Ros, Karin Seufert, Yoko Takirai, Giulia Vecchiato, Laura Volpi, Angie Wu, Annachiara Zani. In Milan, the Esh Gallery organized Walking Treasures, a exhibition dedicated to contemporary jewelery. This is the sixth edition of the event. The jewels interpreted by the 14 authors are made with the most diverse materials: metal, glass, ceramic, with stones and natural elements. Glass and metal, for example, are used for the Suri & Ros collection, the result of the collaboration between Agustina Ros and Giulia Vecchiato, exhibited for the first time after a first online presentation at New York Jewelry Week 2020.

Each jewel is born from hand-finished metal plates on which blown glass is applied through a balanced game of contrasts between volumes. The unique feature of the collection is the multifunctionality: the brooches become pendants, the earrings become brooches and so on, with the result of having more jewels in one. Annarita Bianco (Merıstėma Lab), on the other hand, mixes traditional craftsmanship and technology, with jewels made from USB cables, worked with resins set on silver plates and laser engraved to simulate the appearance of modern fossils.

The opposite, in a sense, of the design inspired by the natural world of Annachiara Zani, a young recent graduate of the IED in Milan and nominated for the Klimt02 New Talent Award: she uses alabaster, a semitransparent stone. Against the light, her jewels reveal, behind their elliptical shape, the inscription Visible. The German artist Karin Seufert presents pendants constructed from small points of PVC, empty shapes that have the illusion of weight and recall architecture. The porcelain brooches, on the other hand, follow a continuous search for wearability obtained through the use of uncommon materials in the field of jewelry. Finally, Laura Forte’s gold and silver jewels are characterized by essential lines and shapes, combined with the minimalist style of Yoko Takirai.

Experimental jewelery in Milan





Artistic, contemporary, avant-garde jewels in an exhibition in Milan ♦

Contemporary jewel, artist’s jewel, experimental jewel. All three of these concepts are summarized in the third edition of Walking Treasures organized in Milan by Esh Gallery. The exhibition includes jewelry designed and made by designers such as the Hungarian Orsolya Losonczy, which combines precious metal with raw minerals, or the Israeli Daniella Saraya, a young designer with creations composed mostly of stones and natural elements. The German Carina Shoshtary, on the other hand, started a research on the properties of color and its physiological effects through unusual materials, such as pieces of recovered graffiti and peels of vegetable elements.

The concept of metamorphosis is instead the starting point in the creations of the very young Sara Barbanti, winner of the latest edition of the Joya Award 2018: her jewels are mainly made of wood transformed into charcoal, based on the contrast between poor materials and precious metals. organic shapes and clean geometries, lights and shadows. Also Lodovica Fusco creates jewels reworking elements collected in its territory and in the technique used by Lucilla Giovanninetti and Valentina Caprini that transform textile elements into precious jewels.
The new collection inspired by the punctuation of Eleonora Ghilardi will also be presented, which will be compared with the geometric jewels of Yoko Takirai and the simplicity of Laura Volpi’s creations.

Arte e gioielli, avanguardia e ricerca nella mostra Blu. Segni dal mare organizzata a Milano ♦︎

Come per la pittura, anche nel mondo della gioielleria si organizzano mostre collettive. Avviene quando i gioielli sono d’autore, cioè non legati a grandi brand e a collezioni realizzate in grandi numeri, ma pezzi unico o quasi, piccole raccolte, proposte inconsuete. Fa parte di questa scelta la mostra Blu. Segni dal mare, collettiva organizzata a Milano dalla ESH Gallery (via Forcella 7). Come è facile intuire, l’esposizione ha il suo focus nel mare e nell’elemento acqua. Nell’occasione sono esposti anche alcuni gioielli scultorei della cinese Wanshu Li, vincitrice del Joya Award 2017. A parte quest’ultima, partecipano alla mostra Reiko Tsunashima, Aki Rusu, Andrea Forges Davanzati, Claudio Destito, Fumie Sasai, Shinya Tanoue, Ōki Izumi.

Opening: 5 giugno 18.30-21.00
Dal 6 al 15 giugno: 11-19 (Chiuso domenica)
Dal 18 giugno al 20 luglio: Lun-Ven 11-14 / dalle 14 visite su appuntamento
