1. Aufl. Nordic Jewellery ist frischer Schmuck aus Nordeuropa, eine umfassende Auswahl aktueller Arbeiten von Künstlern aus Dänemark, Finnland, Island, Norwegen, Schweden und dem Baltikum. Das Beste und Innovativste der skandinavischen Schmuckkunst wird als Bestandsaufnahme der Möglichkeiten und Potentiale im beginnenden 21. Jahrhundert vorgestellt. Das in dieser Publikation dokumentierte, in einem Symposium und einer Wanderausstellung mündende Projekt fordert stereotype Vorstellungen nordeuropäischer Schmuckkunst heraus: Kann man heute noch wie in den 1990er Jahren über typische nordische Trends sprechen? Oder allgemein von Trends im skandinavischen Design? Oder ist die internationale Ausrichtung in der Gestaltung mittlerweile so dominierend, dass es keine regionalen Besonderheiten mehr gibt? Renommierte Spezialisten haben eine Auswahl repräsentativer Arbeiten getroffen und erforschen davon ausgehend die Stellung des nordeuropäischen Schmucks im internationalen Kunstkontext.
