![Of the entire exhibition -[and there were many spectacular sights dating back thousands of years that touched humans at a time that I can't even fathom]- I was most thrilled to see this piece: "The Jealous Husband necklace" by Alexander Calder from 1940. His jewelry work is an (the?) inspiration for modern jewelry ... and is so clearly behind many of the jewelry trends we are seeing right now. It is one thing to see pictures of these hand crafted objects, and it is another all together to see them with one's own eyes, witnessing the hammer patterns, observing details and unassembling the steps with your eyes. The exhibition explores how jewelry interacted with the human body throughout history to present day. How free we are to disregard history, or even create commentary about history through the materials we choose and the statements we can make. I did not know how ancient the role of jewelry is, nor did I realize that it existed almost exclusively for men for such a long period of history. I bought the exhibition book and look forward to digging in again to absorb more.... (I would guess that you can order the book online from The Met if you aren't able to get to the show?)
