Beatrice Lang
Galerie für Schmuck
Named after its founder, the gallery Beatrice Lang - Galerie für Schmuck, opened its doors in 2005. Located in one of the centenary Béarnaise streets under the arcades, the gallery stands out for its modern interior. A big glass acts as a wall and show-window at the same time, allowing total sight into the gallery. One of the walls is covered with a long mural, like a blackboard, where the names of the artists are written every time. Along this surface, little light boxes host the jewellery and objects that are displayed in a very careful and individualized way. The display concept tells already about the main motivation of the gallerist: from the wall cabinet-like structure into the free space in front, it is offered a flexible, changing space for creativity in contemporary jewellery, open to new expressions and new ways of communicating.
Beatrice Lang shows renowned Swiss artists and has an exclusive selection of international work. She also supports the young Swiss talents and establishes collaboration with schools and other groups coming from all Europe, in order to make visible the latest and youngest developments in contemporary jewellery.
The gallery organizes six exhibitions every year and promotes parallel events that inform and attract a wider audience. Show-room, meeting point and laboratory, Beatrice Lang - Galerie für Schmuck works to raise interest and passion for wearing and collecting contemporary jewellery.
