For this “Best Of” section, we told our jury members to look for pieces that made their heart skip a beat.
Schmuck 2016 offered more than 70 exhibitions and events. How do you find the best of the best and give justice to this eclectic palette of jewelry expressions?
Alchimia’s second year MFA team of students visited Schmuck 2016 with its curatorial studies tutor Antonia Alampi. They spent their time analyzing and closely discussing a select number of exhibitions among the more than 70 organized for this year’s event.
What can we say, words are not exhaustive to describe how incredibly excited we are to share with you the pride about “Unbearable Lightness”, a solo-show of our recent MFA graduate Federica Sala in Munich, featuring her MFA collection. The exhibition was mentioned in the prestigious Art Jewellery Forum as one of the ten best presentations in the Munich Jewellery Week this year, and one of her pieces as one of the ten artworks that make the heart of experts skip beat.
ederica Sala, who recently finished her Masters at the Alchimia school in Florence (with Jorge Manilla as tutor), presented her work “Unbearable Lightness” during these days at Schmuck in Munich, with her strong passion for glass (no wonder she worked with the great Giorgio Vigna), her surprising technical talent and admirable determination.
