RAM is proud to host an artist talk and book signing with metalsmith Eleanor Moty on First Friday, September 2, for the artist monograph, Quiet Elegance: The Jewelry of Eleanor Moty. Don’t miss this conversation hosted by RAM Executive Director and Curator of Collections Bruce W. Pepich, who co-authored the book. Admission is free and open to the public.
This dialogue coincides with an exhibition of Moty’s work that borrows the title of the book. Featuring over 35 works, including several from RAM’s holdings and recently finished pieces borrowed from the artist, Quiet Elegance: The Jewelry of Eleanor Moty follows a similar arc to the book in representing Moty’s working career to date—over 50 years of making.
