This is the first time a publication has been devoted to drawings by jewellery artists, thus focusing on a multifaceted subject that has hitherto been entirely underestimated. Text in English and German. The multifarious relationships between drawing and jewellery constitute a largely unknown aspect of contemporary art jewellery. Private Confessions, the first publication on this topic, therefore focuses on graphic work by well-known and aspiring artists, opening up new perspectives through its juxtaposition with jewellery objects. In addition, it also deals with drawing as an artistic action and as autonomous expression, transgressing disciplinary boundaries through experimental expansion and the pursuit to broaden familiar terrain. It accompanies aesthetic reflection and exemplifies the creative back-and-forth that enables intimate dialogue with artistic impulses. A groundbreaking work, which showcases the fusion of applied and fine arts before your very eyes!
