EXTINS | contemporary jewelry
Extins – the only designer jewelry exhibition in Romania at its second edition
For the second time in a row, the creations of several young jewelry designers are reunited within an event-exhibition titled Extins, the only one of its kind in Romania. This year’s edition will take place in one of the privileged spaces in Carturesti bookshop and it will run between 18 November – 2 December.
While we are used to discover jewelry in classic settings such as on the shops’ shelves or worn by the admirers of this sort of accessories, and event such as Extins aims to extract jewelry from the commercial realm and present it as contemporary art in the installations created by the designers. This is the leading concept of the event which implies operating a transgression of the object from its commercial state to the artistic one. The exhibition is meant to familiarize the public with contemporary designer jewelry and to implicitly encourage the young designers who have channeled their creativity and resources in this direction. The 2008 selection includes the following designers: Mihaela Tarhuna, Carla Szabo, David Sandu, Kuki Constantinescu, Angi Apostol, Mihaela Zvîncă, Ana Claudia Crişan, Vlad Gherghiceanu, Elephant, Kristina Dragomir and Radu Fulga. Their designs will be on display at Carturesti during the second half of November and they will reflect a curatorial scenario by Dan Piersinaru who also created of the Extins project concept.
