These pieces will be displayed alongside 59 two- and three-dimensional artworks from the institution\u2019s collection and five promised gifts. Artists include Roy Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Georges Braque and Louise Nevelson.French collector Venet\u2019s interest in artists\u2019 jewellery began when the sculptor Bernar Venet proposed to her by placing a twisted bar of silver on her finger in 1985. Her now husband then gave gifts made by his artist friends, inspiring her to start collecting pieces herself. She now owns and wears artists\u2019 jewels dating from the 1930s to the present day.J Rachel Gustafson, chief curatorial operations and research officer at the Norton, hopes the new exhibition will prompt reconsideration of an artist\u2019s jewellery within their larger body of work, as she says this is overlooked in art history teaching. \u201cMaybe less omission and more inclusion in terms of the vastness of artists\u2019 creativity\u2009.\u2009.\u2009.\u2009that would be success,\u201d she says.Venet\u2019s favourite jewels are the unique pieces made for her by artist friends, including Robert Rauschenberg and Frank Stella. \u201cThe close relationship between me and the artist is very important because it gives the idea that it\u2019s sentimental,\u201d says Venet. \u201cI\u2019m not a gallerist \u2014 I never sell, I collect [out of] love.\u201dShe says that while artworks are mostly made to be sold, an artist\u2019s jewellery has tended to be made out of friendship or love. Gustafson adds that some female artists also made pieces for themselves.Venet says artists have typically made jewellery later in their lives, \u201caccepting the challenge to change scale\u201d. \u201cBecause making or deciding a piece of jewellery for an artist is not just doing in tiny what they do in large in their everyday work,\u201d she says. She adds that not all artists can manage the change of skills required.A 23-carat gold Pablo Picasso pendant, \u201cLe Grand Faune\u201d (1973), made by French goldsmith Fran\u00e7ois Hugo, and two brooches will be shown alongside two of Picasso\u2019s 1950s earthenware pieces with painted faces and the 1956 painting \u201cL\u2019Atelier\u201d (The Workshop). \u201cYou actually will see the faces or the eyes of the figures that are both on the medallion and on the vessel,\u201d says Gustafson. \u201cSo it\u2019s a really nice combination to see that the gestural making of these artists can cross media.\u201dThe museum will display Andy Warhol\u2019s \u201cVesuvius 365\u201d (1985), a colour lithograph on paper in its collection, for the first time, pairing it with the only wristwatch in Venet\u2019s collection: Warhol\u2019s black steel Times 5 (1987).Gustafson hopes the exhibition will propel visitors to question why artists\u2019 work in jewellery is lesser known. \u201cI hope a visitor will see that there\u2019s this relationship that is happening where an artist is thinking of a form or colour or a composition in perhaps what we would call the fine arts\u2009.\u2009.\u2009.\u2009and now it\u2019s translated into jewellery, which is more traditionally linked with craft,\u201d she says.\u201cAnd so because of that, especially in art historical circles, perhaps there\u2019s not as much value placed on it. But the reality is, these artists are using the same modes of creativity to create two different realisations.\u201dGustafson\u2019s feminist art history interpretation of why artists\u2019 jewellery has been undervalued is because jewellery is something predominantly worn by women in the past few centuries. \u201cYou have to ask yourself: how much has the patriarchy embedded [itself] into our ways of thinking that a jewellery piece is frivolous?\u201d she says, adding that jewellery is usually bought by women, or by a man seeking a woman\u2019s affection. She hopes that pairing pieces with paintings and sculptures means the jewellery will not be considered \u201cless than\u201d.The reality is, these artists are using the same modes of creativity to create two different realisationsFollowing an introduction featuring a sound piece created by the Italian artist Sheila Concari, the exhibition will be arranged into seven sections in which the jewellery and artworks are grouped by an art historical movement or theme. The museum will be treated as \u201cthe body for the artwork\u201d, says Gustafson.Rather than being installed at typical viewing height, some paintings will be hung close to the ceiling to mimic the wearing of earrings. Others will appear to be hanging from rope. \u201cSo a painting now becomes a pendant on the body that is the museum,\u201d says Gustafson.Jewellery will be arranged on table cases that resemble dressing tables. A selection of pieces including the Warhol watch will be enclosed in acrylic but with space that allows a visitor to slide their hand underneath to get a sense of how it would look to wear the piece.The experience of curating the show has changed Gustafson\u2019s view of jewellery, which she now believes is \u201cunequivocally\u201d art. \u201cI will never look at jewellery the same way after this exhibition,\u201d she says. \u201cI personally do not wear a lot of it, so I will be very much more intentional about what I put on and explore as my own form of creative expression as a wearer.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in Arabic Unlock the Editor\u2019s Digest for freeRoula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.A new exhibition in Florida will show pieces from a leading collection of artists\u2019 jewellery alongside a large selection of paintings and sculptures by the same<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":259756,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-259755","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-culture"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259755","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=259755"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259755\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":259757,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259755\/revisions\/259757"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/259756"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=259755"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=259755"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globetimeline.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=259755"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
