Do you secretly spend your bucks on prints of your favorite
artist? Or perhaps your favorite hangout is an art exhibition on a Friday night
and you don’t own a house, but you do own an original painting that hangs
against your rented wall? Whatever you do, don’t make the mistake of thinking
pearl jewelry is old-fashioned or even classic. Because while it can be both
those things, pearls are also known for their incredible versatility when
accessorizing. With the right design, pearls can say ‘Eclectic’ and ‘Modern’ as
much as any other brass and bright colored geometric shapes can.
Contemporary art is any art produced in the second half of the
20th century and after. It encompasses both modern and post-modern art, and
while the one defining characteristic is that there is nothing much that holds
it together in theme, it’s also true that there are some masters of the
movement who can be recognized by a few things. These are, firstly, a no-care
attitude towards the viewer.
Have
a look at these contemporary art inspired pieces on Cultured pearls TimelessPearl:
Bold
Black Shapes In All Forms – Anything Goes, Right?
So, back to pearl jewelry. Bold primary colors? Check. Geometric shapes? Check. Child-like pictures and images sold to adults (because we can do what we like, right?) Check. Eclectic combinations that don’t always make sense or look like they belong together? Check.
Cartoons?
No People, It’s Art.
Contemporary art says ‘I don’t care what you think or expect of me, I’m doing what I want.’ Secondly, some of the early masters were known to use a lot of bold, primary colors paired with geometric shapes.
And thirdly, recognizable characters, which previously would not have been seen as art, isnow raised to art status: cartoons, famous actresses, cute drawings – everything goes.
Blue
Is All You Need.
