“Wear fabulous jewelry,” said the invitation to the Museum of Arts and Design’s annual exhibition LOOT: MAD About Jewelry and Opening Benefit sponsored by Paolo Costagli. If you didn’t walk in with a statement piece, not to worry. You could certainly have walked out with one. “It’s the only museum in America that has a permanent jewelry gallery devoted exclusively to contemporary and modern jewelry,” Curator Bryna Pomp explained. “Once a year we hold an event called LOOT which is an exhibition and sale of studio and art jewelry.”
