The Sting of Passion
Date: 10th Jul 09 - 2nd Oct 09
Location: Manchester Art Gallery
Time: 10:00 - 17:00
Cost: Free
Curator Jo Bloxham has selected twelve of Manchester’s Pre-Raphaelite paintings, to provide a platform on which to inspire 12 international jewellery artists.
The paintings portray woman as a Femme Fatale, a seductress, and in some cases, purely an object of beauty and each of the jewellers has responded individually, with astonishing results.
The jewellers have created an exciting body of work using a diverse selection of materials, from gold and garnets to concrete and broken glass. The Sting is an opportunity to explore an area of jewellery design rarely seen in the UK.
