Below is a description of Iron 2010. The show opens May 29th 2010 at the Ornamental Metal Museum in Memphis, Tennessee.

Iron: Twenty Ten
Juried Exhibition of American Blacksmithing

With an eye toward the future of a vital art form, Iron: Twenty Ten will offer a survey of the finest contemporary blacksmithing in the United States. Making use of both traditional and innovative approaches, the selected work demonstrates the tremendous breadth of ideas and depth of talent found in American blacksmithing today. Work was selected by a jury of prominent blacksmiths and scholars, including Anna Fariello, Tom Joyce, Richard Quinnell and James Wallace.

May 29 - July 19, 2010
The exhibition is timed to coincide with the 2010 ABANA conference in Memphis. After the initial exhibition, the show will travel for up to two years to other venues, which are currently being secured.
