The fundamental goal of the Budapest Jewellery Week is to provide a common platform for contemporary jewelry artists. This year a large-scale exhibition showcases artworks by outstanding artists whose oeuvre has been significantly impacting the way contemporary jewelry develops and evolves. The show is entitled IDOL, and it intends not only to present exemplary careers but also to show respect for professional commitment.
The György Ráth Villa, which constitutes an auxiliary part of the Museum of Applied Arts and will host the exhibition, will provide an exciting ambience with its art nouveau enterieur for the contemporary objects reflecting on the traditions of object design.
