Artist in Residence Programme

Campus Gemstones and Jewellery and the Jakob Bengel Foundation Idar-Oberstein invite jewellery artists to work as "Artist in Residence" at the historical "Jakob Bengel jewellery and watch chain factory" as well as at the ateliers of the university. Invitation depends on the artist's oeuvre and profile, as well as the current requirements of the teaching programme at the Campus.
