A celebration of creative alchemy featuring
Jewelry by Jacques Jarrige ~ Photographs by Alex Korolkovas
Opening Tuesday, November 13th with a reception from 5–9 pm, Valerie Goodman Gallery presents EVES, a collaborative exhibition featuring sinuous jewelry by Parisian sculptor Jacques Jarrige alongside photographs celebrating Jarrige’s jewelry, by Brazilian native Alex Korolkovas, which depict three dynamic women adorned with the wearable art. The event will be a lively, multi-faceted presentation: the jewelry — a collection of animated ribbons and curls in hammered brass, gold-plated brass and silver; the photographs — Korolkovas’s three muses in images from ethereal to edgy, an opportunity to meet and mingle with the artists and models, refreshments, and at 7pm, a panel discussion with the participating talents.

A portion of the sales of Jarrige’s jewelry and Korolkovas’ photographs will benefit the two organizations. The exhibit runs until January 22, 2019.
