Exhibition Affinities in Contemporary Jewellery

The exhibition is the result of the contest for the pluriannual project ‘Afinidades’, developed by the Soares dos Reis National Museum, in partnership with the Quarteirão Criativo Association, with the patronage support of the Super Bock Group, as well as the support of the Círculo Dr José de Figueiredo – Friends of the Soares dos Reis National Museum.

From 6 July to 16 November, the exhibition presents jewellery pieces made by jewellers and artists from different disciplines, represented in the Bombarda Quarter, inspired by the sculpture and two preparatory drawings of ‘Firmino’, by António Soares dos Reis and belonging to the museum’s collection.
