Beyond Bling: Contemporary Jewelry from the Lois Boardman Collection
from 2 Oct 2016 at Los Angeles County Museum of Art
· Los Angeles
Beyond Bling: Contemporary Jewelry from the Lois Boardman Collection presents a compelling survey of modern jewelry as art. Drawing from the distinguished Lois Boardman Collection, the exhibition highlights works that challenge conventional notions of adornment, material, and craft.
The pieces on display demonstrate how contemporary jewelry makers transform unexpected materials and bold concepts into wearable — and unwearable — objects of artistic significance. Far from mere decoration, these works invite visitors to reconsider what jewelry can be and what it can say.
