Description
The Las Cruces Museum of Art is proud to present “Innovation and Change: Great Ceramics from the Ceramics Research Center, Arizona State University Art Museum Collection.” The exhibition will open December 12, 2008 and run through January 24, 2009.
“Innovation and Change: Great Ceramics from the Ceramics Research Center, Arizona State University Art Museum Collection” highlights seventy-nine masterworks by many of the leading international artists of our time, offering a panoramic survey of the potential of clay as an expressive art form. The objects on view range from functional ware for everyday use to more expressive art forms. The exhibition features works by such prominent artists as Peter Voulkos, Stephen DeStaebler, Jun Kaneko, Tanya Batura, and Eddie Dominguez, to name just a few. Influenced by European modernist design, as well as Asian pottery traditions, these ceramic pioneers created a new American aesthetic.
The showing here in Las Cruces is part of a ten city national tour over a three year period. The exhibition was curated by Peter Held, Curator of Ceramics and was developed and managed by Smith Kramer Fine Art Services, as exhibition tour development company in Kansas City, Missouri.
All exhibits at the Museum of Art, located at 491 N. Main St. in the downtown mall, are accessible and free to the public. For more information about exhibits and Studio Programs art classes, please call 575-541-2137 or visit the website http://museums.las-cruces.org
