Intro

The õhuLoss group of Estonian jewellery artists is opening its exhibition in the framework of the Schmuck jewellery show on 5 March.

The vanguard of the international jewellery artists is gathering in Munich for the 51st spring in a row for one of the top events in the field, Schmuck. It will bring together thousands of jewellery aficionados and professionals. Besides the main exhibition, satellite exhibitions, lectures and meetings will also take place.

A group of Estonian artists called õhuLoss is also opening its own exhibition. Close to 70 pieces of jewellery from recent years will be on display at the gatehouse of the Alter Nordfriedhof on Arcisstr 45. The exhibition will be open until 7 March.
õhuLoss consists of the artists Eve Margus-Villems, Kadri Mälk, Kristiina Laurits, Piret Hirv, Tanel Veenre and Villu Plink. Founded in 1999, the group has exhibited its work in Estonia, the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Spain and Portugal.
Accompanying the exhibition is a publication in 15 languages with an essay by Peeter Laurits. Laurits has said regarding õhuLoss: ”They belong to a category of artists – so rare in today’s world – who have not forgotten what it means to (be) sublime.”
