kunst.wirt.schaft is a non-profit art initiative founded in 2002, dedicated to authorship and contemporary jewellery. Its mission is twofold: to present the work of contemporary artists from Austria and beyond, and to foster a context in which jewellery gains greater significance within the broader field of contemporary art.

To this end, the organisation develops and organises four to six exhibitions per annum. Notably, the project functions as a significant platform for emerging artists, offering recent graduates a professional setting in which to showcase their work. In addition to the management of the gallery, the three resident jewelry artists are engaged in their own projects and commissions within the on-site atelier.
The kunst.wirt.schaft team now consists of Andrea Zahlbruckner-Jaufer, Chiara Longari and Claudia Stuhlhofer-Mayr.
On-site facilities: temporary exhibition gallery, meeting room, atelier, contemporary jewellery showcase, selection of contemporary jewellery books.
