IX Contemporary Goldsmithing and Jewelry Curated Exhibition: Crafting the Future of Ornament

The IX Contemporary Goldsmithing and Jewelry Curated Exhibition, organized by AdOC (Asociación de Diseñadores de Orfebrería y Joyería Contemporáneas), is a landmark event dedicated to promoting contemporary jewellery and metalwork on an international stage. Held at the prestigious Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas and Museo Cerralbo in Madrid, the exhibition brings together artists whose work challenges the traditional definitions of ornament, craftsmanship, and wearable art.

As part of Madrid Design Festival 2024, and coinciding with ARCO Art Week, the event creates a dialogue between contemporary jewellery and the broader world of design and visual culture. Visitors experience pieces that merge concept and technique, revealing the evolving identity of jewellery as a medium for personal and artistic expression.

The exhibition presents a curated selection of works by international creators, each exploring themes through innovative forms, materials, and narratives. Every piece is a reflection of the artist's approach to metal, symbolism, and the human experience—ranging from sculptural forms to poetic, minimal expressions of adornment.

Kostin’s Lab is honoured to participate in this forward-looking exhibition, continuing our mission to merge material science with artistic vision. Events like this are vital for showcasing the future of jewellery—where technology, emotion, and heritage coexist in bold new forms.
