Heard Museum: Young Jewelers
EXHIBITION ANNOUNCEMENT


The Young Jewelers: Forging a Future

Heard Museum

Now through September 7, 2008


The Young Jewelers: Forging a Future exhibition and the Shop are sure to come alive with the frenzy only great jewelry can inspire. Ranging in ages from 25 to 43, Curator of Collections Diana Pardue has chosen eight of the best in a new generation of jewelers; artists who work magic creating contemporary styles in silver, gold, diamond and other fine stones.

These young artists have worked hard to earn name recognition at an early age. At 43, the oldest of the group, Cody Sanderson Navajo/Hopi/Pima/Nambe, describes his jewelry and metal work as “fun—visually digestible.” His designs are bold. Deep repousse’ lends dimension to a bracelet. Layers of spikes adorn a buckle. Sanderson reflects on his career as a jeweler, “It is a labor of love. You have to enjoy what you’re doing.”

It is clear from this exceptional exhibition that these artists do more than enjoy their work, they excel at it.

Each has developed an individual style and level of craftsmanship not usually seen so early in a career.

These artists continue to grow and explore with out departing from their signature style.
