Alongside their large-scale, world-famous works, many renowned artists of the European avantgarde created minuscule works in relief and sculptures, jewellery and decorative miniatures.
Karel Appel and
Arman,
Alexander Calder and
Max Ernst,
Pablo Picasso and
Niki de Saint Phalle,
Robert Rauschenberg and
Andy Warhol, and, more recently,
Heinz Mack,
Günther Uecker,
Louise Bourgeois and
Anish Kapoor – have all designed jewellery. This exhibition will present roughly 140 works by 34 artists. The artists' small-scale works will be as far as possible juxtaposed with their larger works.
