Crevoshay’s “Beyond
Color” Collection
When Paula Crevoshay was invited to participate
it a special show at The Headley-Whitney Museum to commemorate the opening
of their new jewelry wing Crevoshay decide to create a special collection. Crevoshay
who is known as the “Queen of Color” decided to create a
collection that went beyond color to focus on the forms that are recurrent
in her work and to stretch her artistic expression. Thus was born
the collection titled “Beyond Color”.
In the artist’s words: “Beyond Color is my contribution to
the opening of the new wing at the Headley Whitney Museum dedicated
to the art, and history of jewelry design. I chose the theme "Beyond
Color” to encapsulate my three decades of designing jewelry with
an emphasis on color. I felt in order to put my best foot forward I needed
to incorporate color as a primary element in the collection I produced
for this wonderful institution. The beyond in the series was solved by
reaching a little higher for amazing gemstones and carvings from
some of North America's greatest lapidary artists and to stretch
into designs that break out of the box in a myriad of ways. The vision
found any artist's work is in this world but not of it and "Beyond
Color" hopes to touch that sensibility in the eye of the beholder.” |
