Intro
Alongside our inexhaustible commitment and curiosity about modern artworks and practising artists, we aim to gather and are hoping for more and more insightful and analytical content and reports on the status of contemporary jewellery. However, we can’t give a comprehensive overview of the present condition of this field, unless we look back on some of the forerunners, game-changers and inspirational characters of the past years. Not only the pioneer individuals but the social settings, the environment and the economic climate that influenced how some artworks, in the present case jewels came to light and have been preserved.
