DescriptionA pin with a pastel drawing of two figures embracing by John Dudley. The modernist forms are reminiscent of Picasso's figures. The figures are in the center framed with a red pastel line across the top and left side of the figures. The background is blue with white deorative forms above. John Dudley collaborated with Armand Winfield who is known as a pioneer in using embedded plastics to make jewelry. He and his brother Rodney assembled a group of art students from the Cooper Union in New York to make miniature artworks that were then embedded in plastic.On View
