The project AFTERMATH of art jewellery discusses perspectives on contemporary jewellery art. Numerous artists have been successfully active in this fi eld over the past fi ve decades. Jewellery art has established itself as an independent form of artistic expression. What is required now is to pursue new paths into the future and establish productive connections not only between the jewellery centres, but also beyond the limitations of jewellery. Four artists from the Oslo jewellery scene and four from that of Munich have joined together for this purpose. This book presents a creative and ground-breaking assessmentof the role and potential of contemporary jewellery art in the early twenty-first century, based on exchanges between these artists.
