November 20 – December 20, 2024
On the occasion of the "Forgotten Warriors and Eternal Ornaments" exhibition, we are starting a temporal dialogue, inviting jewelers-artists to be inspired by the exceptional archaeological pieces on display, to create contemporary jewelry.
We therefore invite you to discover MUZA, a collective exhibition of contemporary jewelry, in dialogue with the exhibition "Forgotten warriors and eternal ornaments", hosted by the National History Museum of Transylvania. The exhibiting artists are: Alexandra Constantinescu, Alexandra Mureșan, Andra Lupu, András Egri, Dan Alban, MONOM Georgiana Ciceo, Horia Câlțea, Ioana Cloșca, Iulia Crișan, Ludwig Menzel, Raluca Buzura, Tatiana Alban, Teodora Dragoș, Vanessa Singezia, Vasile Cloșca.
Through the meeting between old and new, between historical objects and contemporary artists, we want to create a unique context that reveals the aesthetic evolution of this craft over time. Beyond their prominent aesthetics, jewels made of noble materials and adorned with precious stones have been, throughout all historical eras, emblems of social status and economic power. In this sense, they have proven to be revelatory in their ability to encapsulate the essence of societal dynamics over time.
The exhibition can be visited at the MNIT headquarters, Str. Constantin Daicoviciu no. 2, ground floor (the "Medieval and Premodern Lapidary" exhibition hall).
