Itineràncies

Behind a creative act there is always the view of the artist responsible for it. Becoming aware of their intention helps one to understand and appreciate their work. Itineràncies sets out to be an online/offline space with room for these views and the intention to go beyond what is established.
Itineràncies will regularly present a more complete selection of the work of the Gallery’s artists to help find out about both their career and their latest designs. This space also aims to publicise new ideas in contemporary jewellery from the various groups working in Catalonia and elsewhere.
