Mission Statement

Without an audience, without the presence of spectators, these jewels would not fulfil the function for which they came into being. The viewer, then, is the ultimate artist. His sight, heart, mind – fusing with and grasping with greater or lesser understanding the intent of the creator – gives them life.Dalí

Inflow International Contemporary Jewelry Exhibition and Conference

Highlighting the international platform and ensuring the outstanding quality of the exhibited objects are primary considerations.
Launched in 2024, Inflow invites both emerging and established artists from around the world to share their unique perspectives and showcase their creations.
What Makes Inflow Unique?
At its heart, Inflow focuses on the personal narrative space. It emphasizes that jewelry is far more than beautiful adornment—it’s a medium of storytelling, cultural exploration, and personal expression. Each piece presented in the exhibition carries a meaningful concept, making it not just an object of art but a profound message.
A Fusion of Art and Discourse
In addition to its exhibitions, Inflow incorporates a conference aspect, providing a platform for dialogue and learning. This allows artists, curators, and enthusiasts to exchange ideas, discuss innovations, and deepen their understanding of contemporary jewelry’s role in art and culture.
Curated Excellence
Organized by Frangipani Stúdió és Galéria, Inflow reflects a strong commitment to supporting emerging talents and established voices in the field. The 2024 event included a range of stunning works and thought-provoking discussions, all under the theme of personal narrative space.
Inflow aspires to grow into a globally recognized platform that fosters collaboration, inspiration, and the appreciation of contemporary jewelry as a unique art form.

This will be achieved through an active marketing strategy on both national and international platforms, the provision of high quality exhibition space and the professionalism of an international, expert jury.

The Jury

The international Jury members select the artworks to be featured in the exhibition and award prizes to jewelry pieces across three competition categories.

The call is open to all contemporary jewelry designers and artists, collectives, schools, and galleries from Hungary and abroad, regardless of age, education, and experience.

Venue

The 19th-century building of the former sawmill is one of the most interesting and special exhibition venues in Hungary. Based on the idea of painters Dezső Korniss and Pál Deim, the gallery was opened to the general public on the initiative of For Szentendre’s Art Foundation in cooperation with the Szentendre Architects’ Club in June 1999. The founders aimed to establish a modern artists’ center. The museum currently hosts temporary exhibitions.

It is the atmosphere, the diverse, special spaces, and the over one and a half decades of professional history of the ArtMill that makes it a definitive center for contemporary art not only on a local but also on an international scale. It is the third most important exhibition space in Hungary thanks to its features and its temporary exhibitions visited by a large number of people.
