The Donna Schneier Collection Arrives at RAM: Art Jewelry of the 1980s and 1990s Opens
September 3, 2009 – January 3, 2010
The Racine Art Museum is excited to announce the debut of a 49-piece gift donated by internationally known art jewelry collector, Donna Schneier. In 2008, Schneier presented gifts of jewelry created in the 1980s and 1990s to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and RAM. Schneier acquired works documenting the two major approaches to art jewelry in the late 20th century-works in precious materials and adornment created in non-precious materials and found objects.
