Bernice Steinbaum Gallery is pleased to present Painters and Sculptors Making Jewelry You Can Afford: The Grass Is Always Greener! A Jewel You Can Wear (and Deserve), a group exhibition celebrating artists who approach jewelry as a form of contemporary art rather than luxury commodity.
Jewelry is often positioned as something rare, expensive, and reserved for special occasions. This exhibition invites visitors to rethink that idea. The works on view propose jewelry as something accessible, personal, and joyful—objects meant to be worn, touched, and lived with rather than stored away.
The twelve participating artists are not traditional jewelers. They are painters, sculptors, and mixed-media artists who have stepped outside their primary disciplines to explore adornment as a new creative language. Some work with precious metals and stones, while others embrace fabric, resin, wire, paper, found objects, and recycled materials. These choices challenge conventional ideas of value and beauty, suggesting that meaning, imagination, and craftsmanship matter more than price or permanence.
As longtime advocates for contemporary art, Bernice Steinbaum Gallery embraces this playful crossing of boundaries. In translating their artistic sensibilities into wearable form, the artists discover that working at an intimate scale opens new possibilities—where humor, texture, and experimentation replace hierarchy and prestige. As the exhibition title suggests, the grass may not always be greener in another medium, but it can be full of unexpected color, surprise, and delight.
Visitors are invited to experience these works during private viewing hours every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10 AM to 4 PM, and to discover jewelry that is as expressive, original, and thoughtful as the artists who created it.
The exhibition remains on view through January 26, 2026.
