About

Founded by Julia Muggenburg in the year 2000, Belmacz is a contemporary art gallery and jewellery showroom situated in Mayfair, London.

The gallery is devoted to collaboration, be this by supporting artists to grow their practices or by nurturing conversations. Belmacz contextualises these collaborations through renowned solo and group exhibitions as well as through expansive publishing and commissioning projects. Artists have proceeded to receive such accolades as the Frieze Artist Award, the German Short Film Award, and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Award for Artists.

Belmacz’s showroom is a design space displaying a selection of Muggenburg’s jewellery. Embracing numerous points of reference, Muggenburg’s jewels juxtapose the highest quality materials to create utterly unique pieces.

Alluding to both Muggenburg’s founding vision for the gallery as well as her expansive design practice, ‘Belmacz’ is a composite name. Combining the male adjective ‘bel’ (from the French for beautiful), ‘maximum,’ and ‘cz’ (from the Slavic alphabet), the space’s title is a further allusion to the seminal Suzanne Belperron.
