This final exhibition in the year-long Treasures In series examines visual artists’ relationship with metals. Mankind’s association with metal can be traced back to 6000 BCE. Prized for its tensile strength, durability, luster, and malleability, this selection explores in both two and three dimensions humankind’s fascination with the beauty and alchemy of metal.
