Anders Ljungberg
Distinctions
12 January – 18 March 2020
Swedish silversmith Anders Ljungberg’s work is an investigation of functional objects and our relationship to them. He peels back layers of everyday use to reveal something hidden under the blanket of habitual, daily actions. He says, ‘I‘m describing a situation where user, room and object are elements in a story that hopefully can say something significant about our time.’
Rudolf Kocéa
Clowns
12 January – 18 March 2020
Inspiration comes from any- and everywhere for Rudolf Kocéa – something seen or heard or read in a newspaper. His simple forms are profoundly evocative, and in this new exhibition his jewellery talks of politics, ancient history, myth and material. The eponymous Clowns, rendered in fine silver and enamel, are drawn from the global political stage
Iris Bodemer
Past and Present
12 January – 18 March 2020
Iris Bodemer is an artist led by instinct, with an unmistakable affinity for her materials. Ideas percolate in her mind over time and find voice in her jewellery – things she cannot put into words.
‘I design jewellery just like I draw. The jewels are my drawings.’ Drawing into her materials, Iris explores their possibilities of use and expression and seeks simple solutions to the technical challenges of joining, closing, attaching.

On the Road
3 November – 8 January 2020
Jewelry is more than an aesthetic experience—it is intimate architecture. For this reason, some artists who are primarily jewelers often applied this foundation and craftsmanship to other artistic disciplines. That is typical for the work of Eva Eisler, who aside from jewelry, designs sculptures, furniture, lamps, interiors, exhibition installations, and everyday objects.

Moon, Sun, Earth
3 November 2019 – 8 January 2020
Moon, sun and earth is a three-part brooch series, employing heavenly bodies to mirror our own corporeal and mental states. The reflectivity of the moon, the absorptive quality of the earth and the sun’s radiation: the pieces invite the viewer and wearer to explore these qualities in themselves and others.
Julia Walter
Camping with Friends
3 November 2019 – 8 January 2020
CAMPING WITH FRIENDS is a new series of work by Julia Walter. For Julia the material and spiritual worlds are closely connected. She takes inspiration from her dreams, her journeys and real life and sees ‘everything connected in a constant flow of movement and transformation, action and reaction’.
Carmen Hauser
Blattwerk
3 November 2019 – 8 January 2020
For Carmen Hauser it is not theory and concept that guide her work but feeling and intuition. Nature is her driving force as she transforms her surroundings into her materials.
