In 2025, Heidemarie Herb, together with Lithuanian curator Jurgita Ludavičienė, presents a second exhibition, Unexpected Amber: Strong Feelings, which brings together European and Lithuanian myths, once again confronting artists with amber. The exhibition features 20 jewelry artists from 8 countries—artists who have mastered working with amber, alongside those who have previously avoided it.

The exhibition starts at the Palanga Amber Museum, a departament of the Lithuanian National Museum of Art, where it will be on display from 26. September 2025 until 16. April 2026.

Curators: Heidemarie Herb (DE), Jurgita Ludavičienė (LT).
Organizer: Lithuanian National Museum of Art, Palanga Amber Museum.
