The online exhibition titled “Beauty Is In the Eye of the Beholder<\/a>” is an exhibition that is accessible to everyone with a computer…Showcasing some of the finest Jewelers and new stars on the horizon…247 images from over <\/span>55 artists representing North America, <\/span>South America, Europe, Australia, Central America, Africa and <\/span>Eurasia.<\/span> <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/span>

But this one is a little different – you won’t find elaborate designs in Gold & Platinum…with precious metals pricing designers out of their own market…this exhibit demands that we think outside our comfort zones…<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/span>

“Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder<\/a>” is a visual trip through contemporary jewelry design from around the world, focused on some surprising material choices. This exhibition features work by jewelry artists who are exploring the concept of jewelry as wearable art using a wide range of materials, many not commonly thought of as “jewelry” materials. One of the driving goals of the exhibition is to show the quality and range of work that can be created using materials other than the “big three” – platinum, gold and silver. While these may be used as accents in the work, they do not compose the primary material.<\/span>

<\/span>Design choices drive material choices, and the entries in this exhibition show the tremendous range of possible materials which can be used to create cutting edge jewelry. Materials used range from metals used for thousands of years, such as copper and bronze, to “new” metals such as titanium, to natural materials such as vertebrae and wood, to surprising man-made materials such as plastic drinking straws and colored pencils.”<\/span><\/p>\n
