Different Approaches from Different Collections

A jewelry collection is intimate in scale and has a different range of prices than one consisting of sculpture or painting. This means it can grow quickly. You can wear these pieces on your body but also store and display them compactly. All this and more is why we are here: Jewelry artists, collectors, and curators are as unique as the jewelry we love. We want to be good stewards of these objects. So let’s consider the ways we can care for art jewelry while still enjoying the beauty of the pieces. With photos showing the approaches of seven different artists and collectors.

Join us for a studio visit and discussion with David Harper Clemons. Last year, the James Renwick Alliance of Craft recognized Clemons as Master of the Medium in jewelry and metals for his excellence in craftsmanship, influence in the medium, and overall contributions to the field.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about how this thoughtful maker embraces the craft of metalsmithing and its collected history of techniques and objects. The resulting works—rendered in metal and mixed media—and his handmade artist books are objects positioned across a spectrum, from vehicles to communicate ideas surrounding identity to forays into formal material- and process-based work.
