Working with materials or symbols, seeking simplicity or abundance of detail, creators push the boundaries of contemporary jewellery. Behind the most successful creations, are artists who are constantly searching for perfection and innovation.
Aesthetic, formal, poetic or controversial, contemporary jewellery has many faces. It reflects the present times.
By working with materials or symbols, by seeking simplicity or abundance of detail, the creators push the boundaries of this perpetually transforming discipline. Behind the most successful creations, are artists who are constantly searching for perfection and innovation. This year again, the WCC-BF invites you to discover them during the European Triennial for Contemporary Jewellery. After the United Kingdom in 2002, Spain and Estonia in 2005 and Netherlands and Switzerland in 2008, this time Germany and Portugal are the invited countries of this fourth edition of the triennial. Their artists will compete with a selection of Belgian artists.
Sixty artists, chosen by German, Belgian and Portuguese curators, masters of art or young talents, will gather in thegreat Halle of the former slaughterhouses of Mons for one of the major events in the field of European contemporary jewellery.
