These have been Founder Members, Chair or Board members, and include many of the most respected British jewellers of the 21st century.
Visions: the second part of the exhibition shows a selection of the best work from 31 current members, juried by our Panel: Kath Libbert, respected gallerist, Peter Taylor, Director of the Goldsmiths’ Centre, Rebecca van Rooijen, Editor of Benchpeg newsletter, and respected jeweller John Moore.
This part of the exhibition will show the full breadth of materials and techniques being used in cutting edge jewellery. ACJ currently numbers some 500 members. Here is a selection of the best of their current work with materials ranging from paper, plastics and mixed media to gold, silver, copper, brass, titanium, aluminium, found objects and electronics. New technologies and techniques sit with traditional methods of construction.
All of the pieces are wearable, however the scale covers the miniscule to the majestic. Conceptual work contrasts with the purely decorative, and all the pieces are made to the highest standards.
The selected makers:
Dauvit Alexander, Kate Bajic, Hendrike Barz-Meltzer, Jessica Briggs, Toby Cotterill, Karen Dell'Armi, Amanda Denison, Gail Ferriman, Gill Forsbrook, Irmgard Frauscher, Anne Havel (USA), Joanne Haywood, Susi Hines, Courtney Hyland, Christine Johnson, Stephanie Johnson, Emily Kidson, Loveness Lee, Katy Luxton, Fritz Maierhofer (Austria), Lieta Marziali, Jo McAllister, Annamária Mikulik (Slovakia), Jane Moore, Jo Pudelko, Zoe Robertson, Louise Seijen ten Hoorn, Elizabeth Shaw (Australia), Rebecca Skeels, Anne Walker, Anastasia Young
