Jewelry without Boundaries x NYCJW 2024 at R & Company
November 22, 2024 3PM
Contemporary jewelry has often spoken to itself, featured mostly in jewelry-exclusive exhibitions that keep the field siloed compared to contemporary clay, glass, and other mediums. As the lines between “craft,” “design,” and “art” blur, jewelry and metals merit playing well with others to generate new conversations about the work in the wider scheme of contemporary culture. This panel explores the potential of bringing jewelry into different, multidisciplinary spaces, with Objects: USA 2024, on view at R & Company, as an active example.
Join Objects: USA 2024 artists Georgina Treviño, Mallory Weston, Sulo Bee, MJ Tyson, Myra Mimlitsch-Gray, steven KP, and Barbara Paris Gifford, Senior Curator at the Museum of Arts and Design, for this discussion led by Objects: USA 2024 co-curator Kellie Riggs

How can adornment and self expression empower us to move through the world as our true selves? Designers, art jewelers, genre-pushing jewelry houses, and culture makers join for one day of discussions about how their work creates new platforms for inclusion, individuality, and freedome to live authentically in a post-digital world.
