Saturday, January 23, while the pavilions VicenzaOro were crossed by a crowd of buyers, in the center, in the noble Palladian Basilica of Vicenza, was inaugurated the exhibition «Skin: the surface of the jewel» set in the halls of the Museum of Jewelry. The inauguration was a success more than an excess: a crowd does not yet satisfy golds view the stands has poured into the beautiful but relatively small rooms of the museum. The exhibition, which will remain on display until May 1, 2016, has as philosophy the consideration that the first encounter with the objects, of whatever nature, is purely superficial, and only then can you appreciate or not elements such as wearability, materiality and weight. Curated by Alba Cappellieri and Livia Tenuta, the exhibition is accompanied by the permanent display (so you can see both). The jewels are all surface, but in particular, the exhibition deals with the pins, through the use of traditional and innovative techniques, the color, structure and volumes. Not surprisingly, the brooch is experiencing a revival in the world of jewelery trade. On display are jewelry products from more than 70 artists and designers and goldsmiths Italian international.
