From the east coast to the west coast and in between, with a lack of formal metals education, jewelers were looking for ways to develop their voice and create a “wearable” art form.
Relying mostly on their own entrepreneurial spirits they led the charge for change. Recognized by museum curators across the country, who organized groundbreaking jewelry exhibitions, they banded to create metal guilds and were collected by women who considered themselves patrons of the arts. Not unlike today, these jewelers lived in a challenging time both socially and politically and used jewelry, their medium of choice, to communicate with the world at large. These young jewelers, inspired by current trends in fine art and design have become part of the cannon of studio jewelry. We will also explore the work of the second generation of studio jewelers who carried on the legacy of their predecessors into modern times. During the five-week course, we will take a deep dive into the work of Alexander Calder, Sam Kramer, Margaret de Patta, Art Smith, Winfreid Mason, Ed Weiner, Earl Pardon, Claire Falkenstein, merryrenk, FrankRebajes, Harry Bertoia, Betty Cooke, Peter Macchiarini, and others. The class will consist of three lectures and two talks.
This course is available for "remote" learning and will be available to anyone with access to an internet device with a microphone (this includes most models of computers, tablets). Classes will take place with a "Live" instructor at the date/times listed below.
