EXPO ‘No Problem (?)’ Nine Israeli Jewelers – Gallery Loupe, USA – 9 Fev-14 Mar 2010
« No Problem (?) » addresses the tension that exists between the monumental problems of the State of Israel and the « flippant » jargon of everyday speech that often seems to belie these problems.
This exhibition brings together the outstanding talent of contemporary studio jewelers from two renowned Art Schools — Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem and Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Ramat Gan.
« NO PROBLEM (?) » is curated by Deganit Stern Schocken – a leading force in the field of Contemporary Art Jewelry and one of Israel’s most important studio jewelers.
