The exhibition Skin: the surface of the jewel looks at the jewellery through a key novel which is that of the surface presenting the works of seventy-seven artists, designers and craftsmen in the different meanings of the skin as experimentation, metamorphosis, narration, contact, dualism, graft.
This museum is the first in Italy and one of the few worldwide to be dedicated exclusively to jewellery.
The Jewellery Museum, a permanent museum space of 410 square metres inside the Palladian Basilica, is a project developed by Fiera di Vicenza in partnership with the City Council of Vicenza.
The new Museum, offers an original, varied aesthetic and educational jewellery experience, enhancing items with ancient origins, deeply rooted in human culture.
Curated and directed by Alba Cappellieri, Professor of Jewellery Design at the Polytechnic of Milan and Italy’s foremost jewellery expert, the museum offers a scientific, learning experience.
On the ground floor, an entrance, with the bookshop as a cultural reference point and a stock of national and international publications on jewellery.
