This essay by Ron Graziani addresses the “Golden Opportunity,” a global collaboration of 80 artists in 2006 to contribute to an exhibition about the past, present or future of gold. This show was hosted by Ethical Metalsmiths, formed to stimulate demand for responsibly sourced materials as an investment in the future, social responsibility and a healthy environment.
“Our relationship with the earth has a lot to do with how humans relate with other humans” (e.g. environmental justice and human rights, capitalism and accountability). Graziani calls this “esthetic jurisprudence.”
