Meeting Point(s) - 25 Years of Interventions in Ar.Co's Jewellery Department

Marking the 25th anniversary of Ar.Co’s Jewellery department (and, at the same time, the school’s 30th anniversary), the exhibition “Ponto de Encontro/Meeting Point(s) – 25 Anos de Intervenções no Departamento de Joalharia do Ar.Co”  takes place at the Center for Modern Art of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, between February and March of 2004.  The presentation brings together the work of 64 Portuguese and foreign artists (mostly jewellers, but not only jewellers), including teachers, ex-students and finalists. All of them shared their own references at Ar.Co and were, in various ways, responsible for the growth and development of the Jewellery department. The exhibition also marks the end of  Tereza Seabra’s orientation of the department she had founded in 1978 and leaves in the hands of Cristina Filipe. In fact, one of the pieces on view is the collective hommage "A chain for Tereza Seabra". The artists/jewellers included in the show are Alexandra Serpa Pimentel, Ana Campos, Ana Henriques, André de Sá Pessoa, Andreas Fabian, António Marques, Armanda Duarte, Catarina Simões, Charlotte Gorse, Christoph Zellweger, Chris Green, Cristina Filipe, Diana Silva, Elizabeth Callinicos, Esther Brinkman, Fausto Maria Franchi, Fernanda Fragateiro, Filipe Faísca, Filomeno Pereira de Sousa, Francisco Tropa, Gudrun Maas, Inês Nunes, Iris Eichenberg, João Martins, Jorge dos Reis, Kadri Mälk, Katharina Menziger, Leonaldo de Almeida, Leonor Hipólito, Lidija Kolovrat, Lúcia Abdenur, Luis Moreira, Manuel Júlio Machado, Manuel Vilhena, Manuela Sousa, Maria José Oliveira, Marília Maria Mira, Marta Eliseu, Miguel Gomes, Nininha Guimarães dos Santos, Paolo Marcolongo, Paula Crespo, Paula Miranda, Paula Paour, Paula Roush, Pedro Cruz, Ramon Puig Cuyas, Rita del Rio, Rita Faustino, Robin Fior, Rosário Rebello de Andrade, Ruudt Peters, Salette Aranda Brandão, Sarah Bettencourt, Sofia Serrano, Stephan Maroschek, Susana Beirão, Susana Van, Ted Noten, Teresa Milheiro, Tereza Seabra, Thierry Simões, Thomas Gentille, Tine Vindevogel and Zélia Nobre.
