Geography is an international exhibition organized by Art Jewelry Forum, including 60 contemporary jewelers and 35 galleries from around the world, that reflects on the global nature of contemporary jewelry and the different ways jewelers react to their environment. Playfully making reference to the science of Geography, this exhibition suggests that contemporary jewelry has a singular ability to construct culture and place in a rapidly changing and increasingly interconnected world. This is Geography.
