Inside Solid Gold
Solid Gold explores 6,000 years of gold in forms that express beauty, joy, ritual, and success. With over 500 gold objects ranging from fashion, jewelry, and luxury objects to painting, sculpture, and film, Solid Gold provides a 360-degree view of our millennia-long fascination and obsession with gold, while discussing the ramifications of its pursuit.
