The Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery is pleased to present After ‘Women in the News’: Kari Marboe, Friends, and Colleagues, an exhibition celebrating the life and artistic legacy of ceramicist Kari Marboe (1984-2022).
Kari Marboe was a celebrated artist and educator known for her innovative approach to ceramics and her commitment to exploring historical narratives, personal archives, and material storytelling. This exhibition brings together 11 artists—friends, collaborators, and colleagues—whose work reflects Marboe’s influence and artistic values.
Inspired by Marboe’s sculpture Women in the News–Viola Frey, from the 2022 exhibition After Viola at Yolo Arts, this show embraces the spirit of collaboration and community that exemplified Marboe’s approach to artmaking. Featuring works in a variety of materials—from fiber to clay to video—the artists explore themes of identity, memory, and materiality, echoing Marboe’s deep curiosity and expansive creative practice.
Kari Marboe was a fellowship artist at Greenwich House Pottery in 2019 and passed away in 2022. This exhibition was made possible with the support of Sunny A. Smith, Dean of Fine Arts, California College of the Arts and the Kari Marboe Estate.
Presented in partnership with HB381. Exhibition on view at 381 Broadway, New York, NY.
