Jewelry That Makes You Think.

ARTICLE SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT Contemporary Jewelers and their Contemporary Cameos by Art Jewelry Forum In the June Report, AJF linked to an Artnetnews article about artists Catherine Opie and Cindy Sherman, who recently unveiled a line of carved cameo pendants made in collaboration with Liz Swig. The original article describes the pieces as having “an unlikely mission: to make antique cameo jewelry cool again.” Metalsmith and writer Marjorie Simon contacted AJF to point out that art jewelers have been making cameo work all along, many of them pushing the boundaries of the form. Read her letter and find a link to an article she wrote about contemporary cameos for Metalsmith magazine.
