[b]Out of this World: Jewelry in the Space Age[/b] The Forbes Galleries, tucked within the lobby of Forbes Magazine's headquarters in New York City, will host an exhibition of jewelry with space-related themes for four months beginning in April 2013. "Out of this World: Jewelry in the Space Age" will showcase jewelry of the 1950s and 60s with Sputnik themes; jewelry made with materials created for the Space Race such as titanium and dichroic glass; jewelry made from materials from space — meteorites (tektites, moldavites, synthetic moissanite); and jewelry taken into space by astronauts and some-related memorabilia. The curator for this exhibition, Elyse Zorn Karlin, is the co-director of the Association for the Study of Jewelry and Related Arts, publisher of Adornment Magazine and editor of two books on jewelry. This will be her third exhibition for [URL=http://www.forbesgalleries.com/]Forbes Galleries[/URL]. Karlin is now seeking examples of such jewelry to be loaned for the exhibit.
