From The Gallery at UTA:
“The Gallery at UTA is pleased to present a group exhibition showcasing the creative possibilities of contemporary ceramics. Reminiscing the Now features the work of fifteen prominent ceramic sculptors exemplifying the breadth and diversity of stylistic and conceptual directions in contemporary clay. Curated by UTA art professors Yana Payusova and Nicholas Wood, the works selected for this exhibition coalesce around the broad potential of clay and the ongoing elastic concept of what sculpture can be amidst the historical, cultural, social, and media-soaked environments reflected in artists’ studio practices today.
Payusova and Wood state that they “have responded to a multiplicity of styles, techniques, and media explorations in clay sculpture and have selected an eclectic array of works produced by contemporary clay artists from across the United States.” The artists chosen through their curatorial collaboration are Eliza Au (TX), Susan Beiner (AZ), Jason Briggs (SD), Anne Currier (NY), Jennifer Ling Datchuk (TX), April Felipe (OH), Del Harrow (CO), Molly Hatch (MA), Janice Jakielski (MA), Peter Christian Johnson (OH), Nick Lenker (PA), Lauren Mabry (PA), Matthew McConnell (AR), Hannah Pierce (CA), and Hirotsune Tashima (AZ).
In association with the exhibition in The Gallery at UTA, a reception will occur on Friday, September 9 from 5:30 – 8 pm with brief remarks beginning at 6:30 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.
