Oltre 400 pezzi in mostra nella prima retrospettiva del metropolitan di New York dedicata ad un maestro gioielliere. E' "Jewels by JAR", che apre al pubblico il mondo di Joel A. Rosenthal, artista delle gemme nato nel Bronx ed affermatosi a Parigi, dove lavora sotto lo pseudonimo divenuto ormai celeberrimo di JAR.
Dal 20 novembre 2013 al 9 marzo 2014 il MOMA ospiterà spille, orecchini e altri incredibili pezzi disegnati e realizzati dalle mani esperte del gioielliere che ha studiato ad Harvard.
