Ombré Gallery presents GLOSSY, a juried art jewelry traveling exhibition curated by director Jenna Shaifer and hosted by Plumb Club, to debut at the Plumb Club Experience at JCK Las Vegas 2019 and continuing to Ombré Gallery in Cincinnatti, OH, and New York City for NYCJW.
Glossy features contemporary artist jewelers inspired by the images and messages presented in magazines, also known as ‘glossies,” for the paper on which they are printed. Glossies serve as a vital communication tool for messaging in the fashion industry. The fashion world is often influenced by celebrity, art, films, and literature. Artists are also responding to the material culture around them. From enamel and textiles to diamonds and zippers, the jewelry artists in this exhibition investigate the medium that captures the zeitgeist of our times.
