INTERVIEW
Juror for the 2022 AJF Young Artist Award
By Melis Agabigum
 
The three distinguished jurors for the 2022 Young Artist Award are curator Chequita Nahar, 2020 Young Artist Award winner MJ Tyson, and collector and gallerist Karen Rotenberg. In this interview, Rotenberg talks about what art jewelry derives its value from, the fact that she chooses what jewelry to wear based on the specific event she's attending, and how wearing the jewelry is the most important affirmation of the work itself.

The 2022 Young Artist Award offers a prize of US$7,500 for the winner and US$1,000 for each of the four finalists, as well as an exhibition at Schmuck in March 2022.We encourage ambitious contemporary jewelry artists age 35 and under to apply for this international prize. Applications to the biennial competition are open through January 9, 2022.

EVENT
Ripple Effect: A 25-Year Survey
November 10, 2021, 3 p.m. EST
 
Join us for a studio visit and discussion with Blanche Tilden and Katie Scott, of Gallery Funaki, about Tilden’s traveling exhibition, Ripple Effect: A 25-Year Survey.
 
Tilden plays with the forms of industrial modernity in impeccable works assembled from purpose-made glass and metal components. Often these are long, sinuous chains that invoke the imagery of mass production. While they seem removed from human intervention, each part is lovingly crafted, and something of their emotionally remote perfection speaks of nostalgia for a mechanically ordered view of the universe.
