Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum
Ronald Pearson: Silver and Gold
April 28, 1978 – October 15, 1978
On display are 42 works—small sculptures and jewelry as well as a complete place-setting of a newly-designed flatware inspired by pieces from a John Quincy Adams service in a Smithsonian collection.
Also included are a fork and spoon from the Adams flatware, two dozen design variations of Pearson's fork and drawings documenting the development of its design.
Peterson's workshop is at Deer Isle, Maine.
