Goblet?

So this year, August 2010, with more advanced notice, I'd like this show to be bigger and better. I want the gallery to runith over with goblets galore answering these deep and probing questions...

The goblet is a classical form made and augmented though the ages. Its significance has usually been to imply the regal standing of the owner. But what is the contemporary purpose of these ancient objects? Who are they for? In what ceremony are they participating? What is their place in everyday society? These are just some of the questions that our group of artists has attempted to answer. Some are more serious, while others turn this ancient artifact on its cup.

I'm definitely not looking for the traditional interpretation. I'm looking for the you. Let's show Phiadelphia your flare and dare them to drink from your cup.

The Body Adorned

The show came out beautifully. Thank you all who participated. We're so pleased we are going to repeat this for December, so plan your pieces now. Below are some overview pictures of the show and details. I made the displays in the shape of mirrors as they are what we look into for placement and jewelry is a reflection of ourselves. I plan on adding more for December.
