For years, the Gothic architecture of the Oratorio di San Rocco in Padua has provided an impressive stage for exciting exhibitions of contemporary art jewelry. An exhibition entitled “Passions transform our works” is currently taking place in this former church, which is now used as a museum.
The group of 12 authors: Claudia Steiner, Maria Rosa Franzin, Gigi Mariani, Stefano Rossi, Corrado De Meo, Gabi Veit, Nicola Heidemann, Judy Mc Caig, Yoko Takirai e Pietro Pellitteri, Elin Flogman, Patrizia Bonati and Lluis Comin has chosen, once again, to follow the path of “influences”. The theme last year was working on how the environment affects one´s work, this year develops towards the more emotional sphere of the individual.

Exploring passion influences our imagination.
Each author searches for his way to convey the idea of passion through his work. Choice of subject matter, materials, colors and of forms connects the expression and personal character of each artist. Traditions, innovations, cultures and origins all impact the creation of works. In the resulting pieces, the different technical qualities of each author are visible.
Influences exhibition first edition and second edition took part in 2018 and 2019 at Munich Jewellery Week.
