BACKSTAGE

Jewelry Exhibition ANAMMA

On the occasion of its 15th anniversary, ANAMMA Contemporary Jewelry School is organizing a group exhibition by its students, titled BACKSTAGE; a comprehensive jewelry exhibition where tradition and contemporary practice coexist in an open dialogue.

The exhibition focuses on the behind-the-scenes process of creation – backstage becomes the protagonist – shedding light on the process behind the final outcome. The space is transformed into a living workshop and functions as an intermediate site where visitors can follow the story of a piece of jewelry coming into being — from raw material and technique to inspiration, deconstruction and reinterpretation.

Jewelry is stripped of its purely decorative role and reveals its unseen narratives. It is an invitation for viewers to look beyond the shine and discover jewelry as a bearer of human experience, emotion and identity.

While placing its emphasis on jewelry, the exhibition also incorporates other artistic forms of expression, including photography, video and parallel events.

Exhibition duration: May, 14 – 17 2026

Opening: Thursday May 14, 19.00 – 22.00

Opening hours:
