Happenings in the year of the Yellow Dog

Lots of momentum in the new year and I am looking forward to sharing work in shows all over the country!

 

Deconstructing the Conversation

Several of my pieces will be at the 52nd Annual Conference of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. CrossCurrents: Clay and Culture, is the theme for NCECA’s 2018 conference and reflects Pittsburgh as a city of rivers, bridges, complex immigrant history, gritty perseverance, and reinvention.

Morgan Contemporary Glass Gallery is hosting a collection of fantastic ceramic artists and I am honored to be included in the show:

Art Palm Springs

Also in February, my work will be represented by Maria Elena Kravetz Gallery at Art Palm Springs, the premier art fair in the Southwest presenting post-war and contemporary art. The seventh annual edition will bring nearly 80 galleries from Asia, Europe, North and South America representing hundreds of artists to the Palm Springs Convention Center. I’m excited to be part of this cultural mecca and meet some of the 15,000 visitors of the Fair!

Three Generations: Moving Beyond Boundaries

In March, I am very excited to share the gallery at Abrams Claghorn with my stepfather and my daughter, a painter and a fiber artist, respectively. This exhibition showcases three different approaches to the question of place. All three of us carry our worlds within, irrespective of our geographic location. Yet we each find a distinct path, transcending limitations of language and focusing on our individual gift of imagination, sharing our worlds of possibilities and transformation.
