THEME OF THE YEAR
As last year the theme of the year was chosen by Eurus Gallery founders Anna Minakova and Zakhar Borisenko in a conversation with Mr. Sitthichai Parinyanusorn, Deputy Director of GIT.

As Mr. Sitthichai states: “In my viewpoint there are several trends come to play in this year and next.

For the competition I would say Nostalgia would be the trend as I see vintage jewellery come to auctions a lot, and the jewellery that is inspired by Art Deco in particular and Nostalgia in general comes to be the biggest trend”.

As Anna Minakova, the founder of Eurus Gallery, states: “We are very much in harmony with the words of Mr. Sitthichai. It is no coincidence that one of the collections we worked on for our own brand, Epic Jewellery, last year, which we will present in March this year at the Art Central exhibition in Hong Kong, is NeoDeco, where we interpret the heritage and traditions of Art Deco in the context of the methods and meanings at the turn of the first and second quarters of the 21st century. In art, there are two major methods—illustration and counterpoint. Unfortunately, jewelry art often becomes merely illustration. However, we, as advocates of the idea of jewelry art as a major genre of art rather than a decorative-applied craft, find interest in works that contain counterpoint, where we not only see beauty but also discern meaning. I hope that we will receive the most applications of this nature.”
