HOOROON, a Curatorial Studio founded by Eleonora Varotto, dedicated to making contemporary jewellery accessible and understandable, joins forces with the Cultural Association Arte Design Venezia, led by Lisa Balasso, which promotes art and design while enhancing Venice’s artistic heritage.
Together, they present The Value of Nothing, an exhibition that questions what makes jewellery truly precious. Proposing that value lies not in materials but in the immaterial: it is the idea, intention, and artistic vision that give depth to each piece.
The exhibition brings together an international collective of artists working across diverse media and techniques, creating a rich dialogue between traditions and innovations, cultures and geographies. The collective spans generations – emerging talents work alongside established artists with extensive exhibition histories. What unites them is a shared commitment to conceptual depth, whether balancing classical craftsmanship with avant-garde vision or celebrating imperfection as beauty.
