David and Sybil Yurman, the couple behind the iconic David Yurman jewelry empire, reflect on their origins as artists in New York in a new book, *Sybil and David Yurman: Artists and Jewelers*, published last month. The book draws from their personal archive of paintings, sculptures, photos, and jewelry, tracing their journey from working under sculptor Jacques Lipchitz and ceramicist Shōji Hamada to building a global brand. In an interview with CULTURED, the Yurmans share stories of their first date, Sybil's early career as a ceramicist and painter, and how their partnership evolved from art to jewelry.

prospect new orleans archival book project 1234747026

Prospect New Orleans, the citywide triennial launched in 2007, will not mount a seventh edition in 2027. Instead, the organization will focus on creating a publication titled "20 Years of Prospect," featuring oral histories, critical essays, and archival imagery from its first six editions. The decision, driven by factors including legacy preservation and funding constraints, was characterized by former executive director Nick Stillman as a holistic step back from the demanding three-year cycle to ensure the organization's accomplishments are recognized and organized. Prospect has operated on budgets between $5 million and $6.3 million per cycle and has received NEA grants since 2019.
