All the Brilliant Facets: Power, Collecting, and a Lifetime of Personal Style with Barbara Berger
Thu, Jun 27, 2013
Reflecting the personal history and passion of its owner, each collection is a unique creation. For one special evening, collector Barbara Berger and Guest Curator Harrice Miller trace how a single pair of Chanel earrings in the hands of a 13-year-old girl would evolve into the world-renowned collection on view in the exhibition Fashion Jewelry: The Collection of Barbara Berger. Together, Berger and Miller reveal many glorious facets of a lifetime of passionate collecting, including jewelry’s ability to empower and transform the wearer, collecting as a method for supporting emerging artists, and how each piece becomes a window into personal moments in time,
A book signing of the publication Fashion Jewelry with Barbara Berger will directly follow the event
