The Friends of Carlotta Gallery is celebrating its 25th birthday this year. We haven't had so much reason to celebrate, be happy and say thank you in 25 years. To mark the occasion, we are once again organizing the coveted Friends of Carlotta Jewelry and Fellowship Award as part of a thematic exhibition.
For the Friends of Carlotta Jewellery and Fellowship Award 2020, we are looking for a piece of jewellery that is nothing less than:
One material makes us despair. A problem has been fermenting for far too long. The brilliant idea does not want to and will not take shape. Sleeplessly one searches for the inspiration, the grandiose revelation. Weight loss, weight gain, insomnia, signs of insanity - where is the idea that outshines everything that has gone before? And suddenly redemption. Eureka! I got it. Just like Archimedes is said to have called out after he realized the principle of water displacement in the bathtub.
An independent jury will award the best work with the FoC Jewellery and Fellowship Award Prize of Fr. 2000.-- and at least one to three other works will be honoured with an award.
I am looking forward to all the best things since sliced bread - to your ultimate burners and of course the exciting stories about them. Let us write jewellery history.

Judging for the FoC - Jewellery and Fellowship Award 2020:
All works were chosen during pre-selection and on display at the exhibition room Trüffel are nominated for the FoC Jewellery and Fellowship Award 2020 worth CHF 2000.—. The jury will award the best work and at least one to three further works will receive special recognition. For further information on the previous judging, visit our homepage and click on the respective exhibitions.
The jury will meet a few weeks before the exhibition begins in the fully set up exhibition room containing the nominated works. In addition, the complete exhibition documentation will be available to the jury for more detailed information.
The Friends of Carlotta audience award:
We do not only let members of the jury cast their votes but also give exhibition visitors the opportunity to vote for their favourite work during the duration of the exhibition. The winner will receive a fruit basket as well as a piggy bank that appreciates being fed by exhibition visitors. The winner will be announced at the gallery and on our homepage at the end of the exhibition.
Evaluation criteria:
All pieces of jewellery that are placed at our disposal are handled with great care and respect. However, Bruna reserves the right to exclude jewellery that is too fragile to withstand an exhibition.
- The ultimate flash of inspiration.
- A stunning invention.
- Something totally unprecedented.
