Jewelry That Makes You Think.
Wednesday, May 26, 12 p.m. EST
 
Join us for AJF Live with Kalkidan Hoex, a recent master's graduate from Maastricht Academy of Art. Her work speaks directly to those she considers a part of her own identity: youth of mixed descent, who were adopted out of their country of origin or had to flee with their families from their birthplace.

This event is free, and open to members and non-members alike. For more information and to register, follow this link.

We invite you to pore through our Library, a sortable database of digital media related to art jewelry that gives you another way to discover our field. Providing a place for art jewelry to be enjoyed and researched is just one of many ways AJF and our members celebrate art jewelry. Here's a sampling of what you'll find:

  • The exhibition catalog for Pilosities, the latest show at Galeria Tereza Seabra
  • Jorunn Veiteberg's book on Kim Buck, It's the Thought That Counts
  • A review by Urmas Lüüs of Kadri Mälk's book, Hunt:
  • The exhibition catalog for Striking Gold: Fuller at 50
  • Anni Nørskov Mørch's curatorial statement for The Splendour of Power

Our digital library supports the jewelry community by providing online access to jewelry scholarship that would otherwise be impossible to find. Library items are generously contributed by readers. Do you have an item to share? If so, please submit your digital media to the Library so AJF's readers can enjoy it!
