Wunderweek pop up shows
Wunderrūma, the contemporary jewellery show curated by Warwick Freeman and Karl Fritsch is coming to Auckland Art Gallery July 18 - November 2015. In conjunction with this show, the contemporary jewellery community is organising a weekend of satellite events (July 17-19). We are working with the K Road Business Association to create a series of pop-up events, putting displays generated by contemporary jewellers from around the country into shop windows along K Road.
