A cooperation of Silver Summer Gallery with Neues Museum, Staatliches Museum für Kunst und Design in Nürnberg and Internationale Handwerksmesse München.

Silver Summer Gallery is an international platform for young artists to present their handcrafted, contemporary tableware to the public. Silver Summer Gallery has been managed by Alessandra Pizzini since 2009. Its goal is to bring innovative tableware to the public in order to promote the development of a new table culture. Continuously collaborating with numerous European art schools, Silber Summer Gallery has been able to present a wide and inspiring panorama of events.

The Silber Sommer Galerie 2014 will host an symposium, which will take place at The New Museum – State Museum for Art and Design in Nuremberg, as well as in Internationale Handwerksmesse Munich. Six international contemporary silversmiths will take us on a trip through the creative process of their work. Which stories are hidden behind the objects which we use everyday. Which language do these objects speak. How does communication between people and things develop . The event will seek out the „World Beyond the Things“.
