Haptic Knowledge and the Artwork of Benjamin Woods
by Meredith Turnbull
"It’s a form of haptic knowledge accepted in this field that jewelry when worn (and increasingly when not) is a sort of locator, an identifying object that can inform the wearer and the viewer about the particular qualities of a subject: where you belong, what you stand for, what you don’t."
AJF is leading a day-trip on Tuesday, November 13, with an exclusive uptown-downtown tour of the very best of NYCJW, curated for AJF members. This day perfectly captures the spirit of NYCJW: in this glorious city, jewelry is everywhere! Registration will open in early October for AJF members.
AJF’s members are a band of artists, collectors, enthusiasts, curators, and gallerists who love what you love—join today.
