Intro
Even though it is often exhibited internationally, Swedish art jewellery is seldom displayed in large art institutions in Sweden. With this exhibition, we intend to change that. During the summer we will present works by eleven Swedish jewellery artists at Liljevalchs+.

Artist list

Charlotte Alfort, Tobias Alm, Adam Grinovich, Hanna Hedman, Karin Johansson, Göran Kling, Agnes Larsson, Li Liang, Kajsa Lindberg, Tore Svensson, Mona Wallström
A beloved object, jewellery, may be filled with memories. It may arouse desire and greed, it may be worn as a secret sign or reinforce our roles and identities. Historically, jewellery has always held a social role and has been present in our lives.

The field of contemporary art jewellery is filled with charged objects focusing on the phenomenon of jewellery itself. Involved in a constant exploration of the role of jewellery in relation to people, the eleven artists in the exhibition also provide reflections on how our experiences and emotions can be manifested through the jewellery itself. Featuring in excess of 200 works, the exhibition invites both contemplation, curiosity and humour. / Liljevalchs
