CONFRONTATIONAL CERAMICS

This Confrontational Clay exhibition is a monumental encore to its 2000 predecessor. The show highlights the work of over 60 artists creating original and riveting work that prompts viewers to see clay as a medium completely unbound from its tradition, as these artists confront social, political, and environmental issues that effect us all.



Event
Judith Schwartz will lecture about the artists and the social issues related to their work. The show will have an exhibition catalog as well as a book signing of Dr. Schwartz’s new book, Confrontational Ceramics, published by A&C Black, London.
