Press Release
Tincal lab Challenge 2021 Jewelry and Nature
Opening: 6 November, 4pm-8pm
Exhibition: 6 November to 31 December 2021
Address: Tincal lab - CCBombarda, Rua Miguel Bombarda, 285, shop 25 - Porto, Portugal
web: https://tincallab.com

With the main objective to show the quality and diversity of contemporary jewelry, opening its doors to the general public, Tincal lab invites every year jewelers from around the world for a Challenge: the creation of up to 3 pieces with the maximum price of 100€ each, inspired by a theme.
In 2021, the 7th edition of this initiative suggests a reflection on the theme “Jewelry and Nature” and brings to Porto pieces from 79 artists from nearly 30 different countries, created exclusively for this event.
The opening of this amazing collective exhibition of unique characteristics will be at Tincal lab, shop 25 of Centro Comercial Bombarda, on the date of Simultaneous Openings at Porto Art District: 6th of November and it can be visited until the end of 2021.
On the opening date, the catalog of this edition will be released and the winner of the Jury Selection Award will be announced. The public will also have the opportunity to choose their favorite artists, in person or through online voting until the end of the year. The 3 artists will have the opportunity to exhibit at Tincal lab over the following year.
This initiative aims to inspire artists and raise public awareness by allowing jewelry to leave its more conventional commercial circuit while making its artistic side more accessible - also from a monetary point of view. In this exhibition, artists use nature as a source of inspiration, explore colors, textures, shapes and materials, look to the world around, think about the dangers of progress and present not only pieces of jewelry, but also reflections, stories, works of art.

PRATT PRESS rELEASE FOR THE WINNERS OF PLATINUM DNA AWARDS REVEALED
WINNERS OF PLATINUM DNA AWARDS REVEALED
Virtual ceremony celebrated culmination of inaugural Pratt Institute and Platinum Guild International USA collaboration
January 27, 2021 (New York, New York) – It was all about earrings as the winners of the inaugural Platinum DNA awards were announced earlier today to a virtual audience of notable industry members. The first, second and third place awards all went to female students of Pratt Institute’s Jewelry Design program, which partnered with Platinum Guild International USA on the competition. The next step of the program, which served as an opportunity for the renowned Institute to introduce their students to the unique characteristics of the world’s most precious metal, will now provide the unique opportunity for winners to work with New York-based manufacturer Paul Catania, of PCAT Custom, to produce their designs.
“We could not be happier with the results of this inaugural program,” shared Kevin Reilly, PGI-USA’s Vice President. “The designs submitted truly pushed the boundaries of innovative platinum design and have us very excited to watch these talented young designers progress in their jewelry journey. The future of platinum jewelry is truly bright.”
The judging criteria for submissions focused on the design’s originality, creativity, manufacturing viability and engineering, and commercial appeal. Design requirements included the intention for the piece to be made exclusively in platinum, with the addition of select gemstones if desired.
The panel of judges included Professor David Butler, Professor Russell Jones, Professor Patricia Madeja, and Professor Katrin Zimmerman of Pratt Institute. From the jewelry industry at large, the judging panel included Zoltan David of Zoltan David; Marion Fasel of The Adventurine; Deirdre Featherstone of Featherstone Designs; Michelle Graff of National Jeweler; Patricia Gumuchian of Gumuchian; Michael Pollak, former CEO and co-founder of Hyde Park Jewelers; and John Carter of Jack Lewis Jewelers, the immediate past president of the American Gem Society.
Professor Katrin Zimmermann shared “Material exploration is a central tenet of our jewelry education at Pratt Institute. Introducing our students to the most precious of materials, platinum, through this amazing collaboration with Platinum Guild International is a meaningful and important expansion of our teaching. The impact on the students has been immediate, positive and measurable.”
The award-winning designs, along with all of the competition’s entries, are available to view on CritiART’s website, www.pgi.critiart.com. The organization, co-founded in 2020 by Xin Xu, a Pratt Institute Jewelry Design alumna herself, is “committed to building an innovative online art community to support artists, art organizations and in general, art enthusiasts to exhibit, communicate and critique art virtually”. The designers’ biographies, as well as their design inspiration, are also included on the website. The finished pieces will be featured at the Pratt Design Show, currently scheduled for Spring 2021.
