Atelier S+M+L_XL, metal and jewelry studio of the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava

The Neue Sammlung has invited Atelier S+M+L_XL Metalwork and Jewelry, the jewelry class at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in the Slovakian capital Bratislava, to present its work at the Pinakothek der Moderne in 2017. This is also the year in which the class celebrates its 25th anniversary. Founded in 1992 by renowned jewelry artist Anton Cepka, one of the fathers of studio jewelry in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, the class has been headed since 1995 by jewelry artist and architect Karol Weisslechner. For the first time, the exhibition in Munich will be showing examples of student works from the past 15 years.
Following its presentation in Munich, the exhibition will go on show at the DMY international design festival in Berlin. The project is a collaboration with Atelier S+M+L_XL Metalwork and Jewelry at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava and is supported by the Slovakian Embassy in Berlin.
