SUMMARY:Fused\, Daniel Bare
DESCRIPTION:Merge (number 3)\, post-consumer found ceramic objects\, porcelain\, glaze\, Ni/Cr wire\, steel\, 14″ x 12″ x 13″\, 2018. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nFused \nDaniel Bare\nOpening Reception | Friday\, February 23\, 2018 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through March 23\, 2018 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present new work by Daniel Bare. Bare’s sculptures are a critique on the wastefulness of American consumerism. He collects unwanted pottery from thrift stores\, landfills and abandoned kiln sites and assembles them into stacks that often seem posed on the brink of collapse. Highlighting the uniformity of mass produced goods\, Bare stacks similar items together making it seem as though they are replicating of their own accord. Other forms are more organic\, resembling marine landscapes or waves of discarded consumer goods poised to overwhelm the viewer. \nBare creates his sculptures by stacking the mugs\, plates and bowls in a saggar container inside the kiln\, often securing precarious forms with nichrome wire. He drips casting slip and glazes overtop\, squirting or “glopping” glazes by hand\, spatula or glaze bulb – a tool similar to a turkey baster. This added glaze and the liquid clay\, or casting slip\, work in tandem with the glaze on the collected pottery to fuse it into a finished sculpture. These found objects add an element of the unknown since Bare is not always sure what temperature they can withstand\, which sometimes leads to his sculptures collapsing unexpectedly during firing. The saggar containers protect the inside of his kiln from being ruined by clay or glaze that melts unpredictably. Bare pushes his materials to this precarious brink – hoping they shift or slump in the heat of the kiln without fully collapsing. The resulting fusion of individual objects into a unified whole adds to the unsettling sense that each of these sculptures will continue to grow and absorb more material\, eventually overtaking everything in their path. \nBare is a full-time Lecturer in the Art Department at Clemson University. He has called the Upstate of South Carolina home since 2010. Born and raised in Lancaster\, PA\, he earned his MFA in Ceramic Art from Alfred University (Alfred\, NY) and BFA in Crafts/Ceramics from the University of the Arts (Philadelphia\, PA).  His practice in clay and professional experience includes international and national artist residencies at acclaimed programs in China\, Japan\, Canada and the United States. His ceramic work is featured in Glaze: The Ultimate Collection of Ceramic Glazes and How They Were Made (2014)\, as well as 500 Ceramic Sculptures (2009)\, 500 Teapots Part I & II (2002; 2013). He exhibits and presents public lectures about his work at Beijing Fine Art Academy in China\, the Michigan Ceramic Art Association\, the National Council for Education in the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) conferences and many universities and art centers in the US and abroad.

SUMMARY:A.M. Martens
DESCRIPTION:From Within We See (detail)\, porcelain\, wood\, dimensions variable\, 2018. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nA.M. Martens\nOpening Reception | Friday\, January 12\, 2018 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through February 9\, 2018 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present new work by A.M. Martens. In her artwork\, Martens uses everyday objects and spaces to reveal the inner structures that shape our individual points of view. In this installation\, Martens uses imagery and personal recollections from exploring construction sites with her family as a child to consider the way experiences and relationships shape us and the way memory can be a window into our subjectivity. \nIn the wall-mounted works\, Martens invites us to think about how our recollections\, however factually incorrect\, can illustrate personal truths. These slabs are fractured re-creations of a photograph of Martens and her sister at the construction site of their family home. The image captured a moment Martens did not know she had misremembered until re-discovering the photograph years later. She realized her memory of it described her connection to her family members better than it did the moment captured in the photograph. Martens made these slabs by screen-printing the picture onto drywall using oxide washes\, putting the drywall onto a clay slab and then glazing the work in its entirety. The drywall cracks in the heat of the glaze firing\, changing the original image\, similar to the way Martens’s memory was distorted over time. \nMartens expands on this idea in her installation of wooden beams and porcelain nails. Struck by the novelty of being able to move through unfinished walls when she explored building sites as a child\, Martens has reimagined these internal spaces as a liminal place between events and our internalization of them. Experiences and relationships accumulate\, shaping our identities and daily lives even though we do not actively think about the way this happens. Martens likens this to the way that nails surround us\, holding together the buildings we live and work in\, despite how little thought we give them. By making facsimile nails out of porcelain instead of using common steel nails\, Martens encourages us to think about the way seemingly inconsequential moments are valuable parts of our perspectives. Like the structure of a home\, our interpersonal interactions shape our understanding of the world and are the foundation of who we are. \nMartens grew up in South Dakota\, which continues to inform her artistic process. She began creating installations while obtaining her MA in Studio Art at Minnesota State University\, Mankato. Martens continued her education at Michigan State University where she was awarded a University Distinguished Fellowship and obtained an MFA. After graduating she became the Ceramics Artist in Residence at Kansas State University. Martens has exhibited her work throughout the United States including at Axis Gallery (Sacramento\, CA); Gallerie Noir (Dallas\, TX); Red Lodge Clay Center (Red Lodge\, MT); Schacht Gallery (Saratoga\, NY); Sculpture Center (Cleveland\, OH); and Sullivan Galleries (Chicago\, IL). She currently lives in Chicago and is the Ceramics Studio Manager at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

SUMMARY:Naomi Dalglish and Michael Hunt
DESCRIPTION:Yunomi\, ceramic\, 2017. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nNaomi Dalglish and Michael Hunt\nOpening Reception | Saturday\, December 2\, 2017 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through December 22\, 2017 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present new work by Naomi Dalglish and Michael Hunt of Bandana Pottery. Dalglish and Hunt are uniquely involved in their artistic process and that deep connection is evident in the lively character of their wood-fired utilitarian pottery. Their work is raw and yet refined\, similar to buncheong ware but more gestural than those 14th century ceramics. That white-slip-decorated ware was prized for its wit and candor — qualities Dalglish and Hunt’s work shares — but where the decoration on the Korean ware is detailed\, Dalglish and Hunt’s is free form. They carve\, brush and run their fingers through the slip on their vessels\, creating pottery with a presence to match its predecessors but with a contemporary aesthetic. Dalglish and Hunt’s work is remarkable for its enigmatic quality\, which gives the user the impression that the soul of the clay is revealed in each one of these handcrafted vessels. \nDalglish and Hunt are able to bring their warm\, charismatic ceramics to life because of their dedication to their making process. They source their clay from local deposits in North Carolina. Processing the raw clay is labor intensive and the artists spend days screening\, mixing and drying it before they can use it. They form their vessels: carving trays from solid blocks of clay\, slumping plates over plaster molds or paddling wheel-thrown cylinders into rectangular vessels. Dalglish and Hunt wood-fire their work in a kiln they built in 2003. It is modified from a Thai kiln design that mimics the shape of a flame. In order for the kiln to reach the desired 2350 degrees Fahrenheit\, they stoke the chamber with wood for up to 20 hours – a demanding task that requires precision\, timing and attentiveness. This commitment to their work is what enables Dalglish and Hunt to create utilitarian ware that is as lively as it is functional. \nNaomi Dalglish and Michael Hunt live and work in the mountains of western North Carolina where they collectively operate Bandana Pottery. They both studied ceramics at Penland School of Craft in Penland\, NC. Dalglish received her BA from Earlham College in Richmond\, IN and has studied with potters in Tlayacapan\, Mexico. Hunt’s education includes the comprehensive research of traditional kilns and potteries in South East Asia including an apprenticeship with Onggi potter Oh Hyang Jong in Kwangju\, Korea. Dalglish and Hunt have built wood kilns in North Carolina\,Pennsylvania and Virginia and taught workshops at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts (Deer Isle\, ME); the Craft Guild (Dallas\, TX); and the North Carolina International Woodfire Conference (Star\, NC). Dalglish and Hunt exhibit their work widely\, including at the Korean Cultural Center (Washington\, DC); Northern Clay Center (Minneapolis\, MN); Schaller Gallery (St. Joseph\, MI); Wayne Center for the Arts (Wooster\, OH); The Clay Studio (Philadelphia\, PA); Southwestern University (Georgetown\, TX); Red Lodge Clay Center (Red Lodge\, MT); and AKAR Design Gallery\, (Iowa City\, IA).

SUMMARY:Vibrant Things\, Andrew Casto\, Evan D'Orazio\, Hilary Harnischfeger
DESCRIPTION:Hilary Harnischfeger\, Diana ceramic\, paper\, hydrostone\, mica\, pigment\, druzy quartz\, wood\, 17.5″ x 27.5″ x 11″\, 2016. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nVibrant Things\nAndrew Casto\, Evan D’Orazio\, Hilary Harnischfeger\nCurator: Aimee Odum\nOctober 19\, 2017 – November 17\, 2017 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Vibrant Things\, a three person exhibition featuring Andrew Casto\, Evan D’Orazio and Hilary Harnischfeger\, curated by Aimee Odum. Undertaking the near-impossible and intricate task of absorbing the world around them\, the artists transform ephemeral events from their environment into tangible and vivacious ceramic assemblages. Each creates their own distinct aesthetic using layers of clay slip\, encrusted hydrostone or brightly colored ceramic mounds. Casto\, D’Orazio and Harnischfeger are influenced by geological processes\, banal spaces or personal moods or relationships. They channel day-to-day experiences into objects that preserve the gestures that made them\, giving these static forms a sense of movement. Vibrant Things connects these lively ceramic forms with stress\, humor and memory – provoking us to evaluate the forces that shape us. \nAndrew Casto’s forms are loosely structured branches that seem to divide infinitely\, rising and gracefully melting into their own formations. Casto builds strata with soft hues and flecks of gold that flow over mounds of fluid slip and glaze. He extracts a visual language from geological processes like erosion\, linking these dynamic changes to the repercussions of stress and how it shapes us physically\, mentally and emotionally. Creating a tempo with his work\, Casto repeats and evolves each ceramic form\, relating these transformations to our fluctuating surroundings. \nCasto presented solo exhibitions at Galleria Salvatore Lanteri (Milan\, Italy); and Mindy Solomon Gallery (Miami\, FL). His work has been included in national and international group exhibitions at Puls Contemporary Ceramics (Brussels\, Belgium); Patricia Swaton Gallery (Oakland\, CA); Gallery 8 and Cynthia Corbet Gallery (London\, UK); and Sight Unseen Offsite for Design Week (New York\, NY). His work is in numerous permanent collections such as the Regidoria de Cultura (El Vendrell\, Spain); The Arizona State University Museum of Art Ceramics Research Center (Tempe\, AZ); and The Archie Bray Foundation (Helena\, MT). Casto currently serves as the Assistant Professor of Art in Ceramics at The University of Iowa. He received his MFA from the University of Iowa and is represented by Mindy Solomon Gallery in Miami. \nEvan D’Orazio’s objects serve as actants for his interests\, identity and physical and mental stress. Through a cathartic process\, the work become manifestations of D’Orazio’s anxieties as he piles\, throws and manipulates clay into heaps\, often resembling debris. D’Orazio brings lightness to his work by incorporating colors of the 1980s and processed and artificial foods. Bright\, saturated surfaces act as a counter response to his negative day-to-day experiences. The objects pulsate with a sense of liveliness and humor\, pushing and pulling the viewer through D’Orazio’s responses to his daily routine. \nD’Orazio has held solo exhibitions at Morpho Gallery (Chicago\, IL) and Pleasant Street Gallery (Dekalb\, IL). He has been invited to show his work in group exhibitions at Forum Gallery (Bloomfield Hills\, MI); Museum of Contemporary Art (Detroit\, MI); Galleria Salvatore Lanteri (Milan\, Italy); Palazzo Cisterna (Turin\, Italy); and Morpho Gallery (Chicago\, IL). D’Orazio currently lives and works in Ferndale\, MI. He received his MFA from The Cranbrook Academy of Art (Bloomfield Hills\, MI). \nPerceptive of the subtleties in her environment\, Hilary Harnischfeger uses spaces and events to inform her raw\, yet intricate forms. Mounted on the wall and in the round\, the works are filled with dichotomies\, acting as a truthful\, yet mystical memory of her surroundings. Harnischfeger’s process involves taking molds of objects from her daily life and casting their likeness in hydrocal\, further pairing them with colored porcelain\, minerals and handmade paper. She finds inspiration from the architectural maquettes of German Expressionist\, Hermann Finsterlin\, her children’s interest in animated cartoons and a broken cliff face. Both entrancing and quiet\, the objects act as passages for us to understand our own environments in a way that is fleeting\, yet grounded. \nHarnischfeger has had solo exhibitions at Rachel Uffner Gallery (New York\, NY); American University Museum (Washington DC); Halsey McKay Gallery (East Hampton\, NY); Neverwork (New York\, NY); and Moody Gallery (Houston\, TX). She has participated in numerous group exhibitions\, among them shows at Cleveland Museum of Art (Cleveland\, OH); MOCA Cleveland (Cleveland\, OH); James Cohan Gallery (Shanghai\, CH); James Fuentes (New York\, NY); and Grimm Fine Art (Amsterdam\, NE). Selected press includes reviews by Jerry Saltz in New York Magazine and Roberta Smith in The New York Times\, among others. Harnischfeger lives and works in Brooklyn\, New York. She received her MFA from Columbia University and is represented by Rachel Uffner Gallery\, New York.

SUMMARY:Teapot
DESCRIPTION:Teapot\nA National Juried Exhibition\nOpening Reception | Friday\, September 9\, 2019 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through October 6\, 2017 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Teapot\, A National Juried Exhibition with works selected by juror\, John Neely. Neely’s selections demonstrate the plethora of inventive approaches to creating a teapot and the object’s adaptable nature\, inviting the most eccentric or subtle changes to form. The teapot\, a device designed for brewing and serving tea serves as a sacred participant in the Japanese tea ceremony and a symbolic element for Victorian era upper class society. It is also an object of fetishism\, expression and iconography\, a truly versatile object. When covered with extravagant embellishments\, it is highly collectible kitsch or a political statement or both. The maker can imbue the teapot with a narrative that adds context to the form as a means of communication. Artists in this exhibition expand our experience of a teapot’s function and the possibility of surprise through elaborate and decorative deviation. \nCreating a teapot often requires attention to how the object moves or is handled during use\, engaging a curiosity for how to adapt construction and invention. The works in this exhibition are a result of those skills\, trial and error\, experimentation and tenacity. For utilitarian teapots\, this might pertain to how the belly of the form contains tea or how it transitions through and out of the spout. For non/semi-functional teapots\, movement is emphasized more through design\, textural curiosity and/or conceptual fascination. As a result\, artists see to fruition teapots with wood-fired surfaces\, representations of nature\, decorative pattern-making and\nimplications of humor. \nExhibiting artists include Posey Bacopoulos\, Hayne Bayless\, Jim Budde\, Todd Burns\, Mary Elizabeth Cotterman\, Scott Dooley\, Christopher Drobnock\, Stephen Heywood\, Steve Hilton\, Jamie Kirkpatrick\, Chris Pickett\, Louis Reilly\, Taylor Robenalt\, Meryl Ruth\, Josh Scott\, Nathan Willever\, Tripti Yoganathan and Dan Zulawski. Featured image is courtesy of Chris Pickett. \nJohn Neely is the Professor of Ceramics at Utah State University and is an accomplished ceramicist having presented his work in over 100 domestic group exhibitions as well as solo and international exhibitions which include China\, Korea\, Australia\, Japan\, New Zealand and Yugoslavia. John has lectured and conducted workshops at the International Woodfire Conference in Flagstaff\, AZ; Functional Ceramics Workshop in Wooster\, OH; Utilitarian Clay Conference in Arrowmont\, TN; Mendocino Arts Center in Mendocino\, CA\, and the Experimental Porcelain Workshop in Jingdezhen\, China. He will provide a one-day workshop in conjunction with Teapot on Friday\, September 8\, 2017 at Greenwich House Pottery\, New York\, NY.

SUMMARY:Ceramics Now 2017
DESCRIPTION:Ghada Amer\,  Study for a Black Sculpture On a Blue Base\, glazed ceramic\,  7 3/8 x 2 ½ x 5 ¼ in. 18.7 x 6.4 x 13.3 cm.\,  2017. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nCeramics Now\nGhada Amer\, Judy Hoffman\, Alice Mackler\, Ellen Robinson\nOpening Reception | July 21\, 2017 | 5:00-7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through August 18\, 2017 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present work by Ghada Amer\, Judy Hoffman\, Alice Mackler and Ellen Robinson exhibiting their research as Artist-in-Residence at Greenwich House Pottery. The residency at GHP is a distinguished program offering artists an environment to explore and generate new bodies of work in ceramics. \nGhada Amer returned this year to complete her second residency at GHP\, spending rigorous hours in the studio and developing a tactile expertise with clay. Using this knowledge\, she generated a body of ceramic sculptures\, both large-scale paintings and miniatures\, thoroughly investigating the marriage between the sensual nature of clay and her message of female empowerment. She continues to cultivate this theme further\, bridging the span between her painting and ceramic work. \nGhada Amer is an American artist\, born in Egypt\, living and working in New York City. Amer received her MFA in the arts at Villa Arson in Nice\, France. She has held solo exhibitions at the Brooklyn Museum of Art; Musee d’Art Contemporain de Montreal; and the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma\, Rome among others. Ghada Amer is represented by Cheim & Read in America\, Kukje in South Korea and Goodman Gallery in South Africa. \nWith a studio practice that reflects the characteristics of her work\, Judy Hoffman took full reign in experimenting with new forms\, parts and surfaces\, creating a database of urban\, organic sculptures. Hoffman meticulously organized shapes and surfaces from this playful chaos. Her sculptures are constructed by assembling these individual parts. Hoffman utilized the residency as a place to focus and reflect\, dedicating time to technical problem solving and conceptual evolution. As a result\, her work presents a dream of playful environments that are other-worldly\, lively\, biological and urban. \nJudy Hoffman is an American artist living and working in Brooklyn\, New York. Hoffman attended the New York Studio School and received her BA from Grinnell College in Iowa. She is a recipient of grants from the Women’s Studio Workshop and the Brooklyn Arts Council. Her work has been included in Sculpture Magazine and the New York Times. She has exhibited in numerous exhibitions including the Museum Frauenkultur\, in Fürth\,Germany and Bric House in New York\, NY. \nDuring her residency\, Alice Mackler created female figures vibrant in color and grotesque in texture. Mackler immersed herself in the work\, connecting instinctually with the tactility of the material. Her background in painting informs her eye for color and source of expression. The residency provided her with the opportunity to further develop eccentric forms and radiating surfaces. Experimenting with scale\, Mackler challenged herself to move beyond her 12 inch tall figures\, doubling their size. Mackler continues to allure viewers with the quizzical nature of her ruby-lipped females\, communicating a body language that is their own. \nAlice Mackler is an American artist born in 1931 in New York and received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York. Mackler has exhibited in the group exhibitions Unorthadox at The Jewish Museum\, New York\, NY\, The Avant-Garde Won’t give Up: Cobra and its Legacy\, at Blum & Poe\, Los Angeles\, CA and Gardens of the Pure at MOCA Tucson. She has also held solo exhibitions at the Independent Art Fair and Kerry Schuss Gallery in New York\, NY\, 2017. Alice Mackler’s work will be included in the upcoming book from Phaidon\, Vitamin C: Clay and Ceramic in Contemporary Art. \nEllen Robinson’s residency served as a place of quiet contemplation for textural assemblages and soft surfaces. Her invented constructions\, at first glance\, pass as organic natural forms\, but further looking reveals these forms as abstractions of those ideas. Yet\, Robinson transforms these associations into objects full of dichotomies and contrasting impressions. The work invites either a quiet or intense response through her use of monochromatic tones and whimsical arrangement. During the residency\, Robinson was able to explore a variety of surface treatments and assemblage choices\, working through new forms and ideas. \nEllen Robinson is an American artist living and working in Brooklyn\, NY. She received her MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York\, NY\, where she began working in ceramics. She has been an Artist-in-Residence at the Henry Street Settlement and has shown her work at galleries such as Alona Kagan Gallery in New York\, NY\, One Main Street Gallery in Buffalo\, NY and Diamantina Gallery in Brooklyn\, NY.

SUMMARY:Déesse Terre\, Ghada Amer
DESCRIPTION:Installation view of Déesse Terre\, 2017. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nDéesse Terre\nGhada Amer\nExhibition on view April 6 through May 17\, 2017 \nGhada Amer’s solo exhibition Déesse Terre was produced during an intensive three-month artist-in-residence at Greenwich House Pottery. \n“There is no precedent for Ghada’s ceramics beyond her own body of work. Since the 1970’s\, Figurative art has experienced a renascence in the ceramics’ sphere. Ghada’s large wall hangings are undulating curvilinear forms with raised rounded edges framing the image. These ‘ceramic paintings’ contain portraits of women made bright with color and fierce through their rugged organic forms. These pieces grew in size and formal complexity\, one might say\, anticipating her sculptures. The sculptural work\, zigzagging freestanding slabs she developed are far more conscious of their arrangement. They reference her paintings torn from their stretchers\, folded and crumpled. These brilliant and imposing slabs are viewable in the round necessitating larger figures and subsequently more developed narratives.” \nGhada Amer is an American artist\, born in Egypt\, living and working in New York City. Amer received her MFA in the arts at Villa Arson in Nice\, France.

SUMMARY:Future Archaeology\, Bryan Czibesz and Shawn Spangler
DESCRIPTION:Installation view\, Future Archaeology\, 2017. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nFuture Archeology\nBryan Czibesz and Shawn Spangler\nFebruary 17 – March 17\, 2017 \nFuture Archaeology is a collaborative two person exhibition with Bryan Czibesz and Shawn Spangler. Together\, they assemble human and machine-made vessels by utilizing the potter’s wheel and a custom 3D printer. Czibesz and Spangler draw inspiration from archaeological vessels. They reinvestigate these forms with their own wheel or 3D printer as a way of integrating objects into a new context. The aesthetics of Czibesz and Spangler’s work echo their creative methods and tools for production – altogether presenting fluidity\, geometry and precision. \nBoth the potter’s wheel and ceramics 3D printer function as fresh tools of invention\, bringing undiscovered opportunities for the material. For Czibesz and Spangler\, their tools become an extension of themselves. Czibesz fabricates and customizes his 3D printer\, instructing the machine how to mold the clay with digital scans\, designs and alterations. Spangler uses the potter’s wheel as an efficient\, tangible method for forming vessels. His manipulation of the material leaves impressions on the clay. With this unification of two contrasting tools\, Czibesz and Spangler demonstrate the intersection between past human activities and cultural materials of the future. Spangler states “we bestow these objects with the power to narrate our experience…” guiding us to locate “where we once were and where we are going.” Together\, they question authorship\, explore artifacts and present us with dazzling emblems of this process. \nBryan Czibesz earned his MFA from San Diego State University and has shown his work at the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art\, the Riga Porcelain Museum and the Ceramics Annual at Scripps College. He has been an Artist-in-Residence at The International Ceramics Studio in Kecskemet\, Hungary\, c.r.e.t.a. Rome\, the Clay Studio in Philadelphia and the University of Hawaii at Mānoa. He is currently Assistant Professor of Art in Ceramics at SUNY New Paltz. \nShawn Spangler holds an MFA degree from Alfred University in NY and has been an Artist-in-Residence in Jingdezhen\, China\, Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts and the Clay Studio in Philadelphia. Spangler is a founding member of the artist collective\, Objective Clay and currently serves as Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Hawaii. \nCzibesz and Spangler have previously collaborated for exhibitions at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft in Houston\, TX\, The Center for Craft\, Creativity & Design in Ashville\, NC and the United States Department of State in Karor\, Palau.

SUMMARY:Saddle Up\, Dorodango\, Anika Schwarzwald and Samuel Stewart-Halevy
DESCRIPTION:Saddle Up\, Dorodango\nAnika Schwarzwald and Samuel Stewart-Halevy\nOpening Reception | October 7\, 2016 | 5:00  – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through November 5\, 2016 \nAnika Schwarzwald and Samuel Stewart-Halevy are architects who have long been fascinated by the materials and procedures of ceramic work.  In Saddle up\, Dorodango\, they have tracked the sediments of the earth’s crust into the specialized and highly technical realm of industrial ceramics.  Here they have discovered previously unimaginable forms and functions and an expanded array of possibilities for a material that has always been plastic in nature.  They hope to understand what remains universal about clay matter once it passes into these unfamiliar states and through the global supply chains of contemporary ceramic production.  Anika is a designer of cultural\, educational and public building projects at Studio Gang in New York.  Samuel is pursuing a doctoral degree in the history and theory of architecture at Columbia University.

SUMMARY:Meditations on an Unending Line\, Lilli Miller
DESCRIPTION:Meditations on an Unending Line\nLilli Miller\nSeptember 9 – 30\, 2016 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present ceramic work by Lilli Miller. Diligently working in clay since 1952\, this exhibition demonstrates a lifelong\, extensive practice exploring the ceramic vessel. Previously studying dance and music\, Lilli Miller translates similar modes of harmony\, repetition and balance towards the manipulation of clay forms. She finds a likeness between these exercises\, as they all provoke a meditative practice. Her variation of size\, shape and color express a search for tranquility and beauty. Working with clay at Greenwich House Pottery for over 60 years\, she communicates that the place has always been a “precious haven” to her and for her work. \n“As a young modern dancer\, I was often preoccupied with how to achieve and extend an unbroken line moving through space. Years later\, studying the cello with my remarkable teacher\, Barbara Mallow\, I understood that the same principle applied: how to give the musical line breath and continuity so as to achieve the deepest expressiveness. \nAnd so\, what I look for in my pots\, and hope the best of them achieve\, is that they grow and breathe – that their forms travel into space and their rims move like the planets\, endlessly.” – Lilli Miller\, 2016 \nLilli Miller was born in 1921 in New York\, New York. At a young age she was exposed to the arts through the University Settlement House in the Lower East Side. While studying at Brooklyn College\, she received a scholarship from the New Dance Group to study the Graham Technique. Miller danced professionally with Anna Sokolow and Jean Erdman and also danced at the Yiddish Theatre on 2nd Street. In 1945 she married Joseph Miller\, eventually discovering Greenwich House Pottery. Beginning on the wheel\, Miller gravitated to hand-building where she continues to devote ample amounts of energy for her ceramic work today.

SUMMARY:Ceramics Now\, 2016
DESCRIPTION:Installation view of Ceramics Now\, 2016. Photo: courtesy of Greenwich House Pottery. Photographer: Alan Wiener. \nCeramics Now\nGiselle Hicks\, Margaret Lanzetta\, Sheila Pepe and Halsey Rodman\nJuly 14 – August 11\, 2016\n \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present\, Ceramics Now\, a group exhibition featuring Giselle Hicks\, Margaret Lanzetta\, Sheila Pepe and Halsey Rodman. The art in this exhibition represents the body of work created during their short-term residencies at Greenwich House Pottery. The exhibition\, bringing together these artists for the first time\, examines their respective idiosyncratic approaches to the material. \nThe Residency and Fellowship Program is designed to support artists and their projects. At GHP we offer artists a chance to learn from clay in a direct way and to foster connections between artist\, material and the larger ceramics community. Ultimately\, these efforts introduce more artists to the pleasure of clay and new perspectives that ceramics uniquely provides. At the Pottery we facilitate relationships where artists can come together to work out ideas and create a new body of work through in-depth involvement in a social sphere rich in history\, culture\, expertise and ideas. Community and collaboration at the Pottery are cultivated through discussions between faculty\, students\, staff as well as immersion in the Pottery’s West Village Community. Our goal is to strengthen our relationship to communities and to nurture creative work within them. \nMargaret Lanzetta\, Sheila Pepe and Halsey Rodman are New York-based artists known for their art in other disciplines. Their time spent as Residents was used to familiarize them with the material and to produce a body of work that they would otherwise not be able to see through to fruition. These artists were given time\, space and technical assistance to actualize their ideas. Giselle Hicks\, an artist living in Helena\, Montana\, was this year’s Fellow. Her time in residence was used to expand upon and produce an entirely new body of work. The fellowship allowed her the time and space within New York City to work but also to be part of the diverse and vital community we have to offer.

SUMMARY:Paul Sacaridiz
DESCRIPTION:Paul Sacaridiz\nOpening Reception | April 8\, 2016 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through May 6\, 2016 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City solo exhibition debut of Paul Sacaridiz. Sacaridiz is at a place in his practice where his skills and intellect collide. Taken on their own Sacaridiz’s objects bear no resemblance or connection\, but placing disparate components into close proximity his art intimates a cohesive narrative. Individually these are hermetic sculptures whose power grows in relationship to the other works\, making their interest grow where otherwise only formal concern might reside. \n“The problem with objects is that they can be so specific…I am interested in the collision of abstraction\, urban planning and utopian systems; and the seemingly impossible task of understanding something in its entirety. My work carefully situates objects within systems that seem to imply an internal logic\, but at the same time appear illusive and open-ended. Structures carefully frame out objects that appear random and chaotic alongside precise mathematical models and awkward structural forms… highly constructed\, layered and insistent on being understood for what it is\, rather than as placeholder for metaphor or illusion.”\n—Paul Sacaridiz \nPaul Sacaridiz (b.1970) lives and works in Deer Isle\, Maine where is Executive Director of the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. As an artist his work encompasses the making of sculpture and leadership within academic and not for profit arenas. His work has been included in exhibitions at the Charles Allis Art Museum\, the Philadelphia Museum of Art\, the Denver Art Museum and the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft among others. He has been the recipient of numerous artist residencies including the Ragdale Foundation\, Vermont Studio Center\, Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts and the Arts/Industry Program at Kohler Company. He is a member of the International Academy of Ceramics and has served on the board of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA). Prior to leading Haystack he was Professor and Chair in the Department of Art at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

SUMMARY:Svend Bayer
DESCRIPTION:Svend Bayer\nOpening Reception | Friday\, February 19\, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.\nExclusive Viewing and Sale | March 25 & 26\, 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.\n \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City solo exhibition debut of Svend Bayer. Bayer is one of the most influential potters in England\, consistently making pots of enormous generosity in form and feeling. A deeply reflective potter\, Bayer uses tradition as a starting point for making pottery that is deeply thoughtful and introspective. Over the last 40 years\, he has refined form\, glaze and fire into the extraordinary. This exhibition marks the first time a large collection of his works will be on view to a United States audience. \n“I think a good pot\, it has to reveal something about the maker. What you find in it is actually not so different than you would hope to find in another person. You would hope to find sort of life and a kind of response – it’s a rightness. I think it is important that you would want to touch it\, to hold it. I used to think that there had to be evidence of good craftsmanship. I’m not sure about that anymore; in fact I don’t think it really matters. I think that craftsmanship is simply a tool which enables you to express yourself.”—Svend Bayer \nSvend Bayer was born in 1946 in Uganda to Danish parents. He attended Exeter University\, was a pupil of Michael Cardew\, and worked as a thrower at Brannam’s Pottery. In the 1970’s Svend established his own pottery facility at Sheepwash in Devon with kilns based on structures he encountered during his year-long travels in Japan\, South Korea\, and South East Asia. The site was chosen for the proximity to the North Devon ball clay mines and sawmills. Since 2000 he has had solo exhibitions at Harlequin Gallery\, Beardsmore\, Rufford Ceramics Centre\, North Cornwall Gallery\, University of Utah\, Northern Clay Center\, Sturt Gallery\, Gallery Lykke\, Slader’s Yard\, Goldmark Gallery\, and the Craft Potter’s Association\, London. \nIn conjunction with his exhibition\, Svend Bayer will be conducting a one-day demonstration workshop at the Pottery\, Saturday\, February 20\, 2016 from 10:00 a.m – 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:More Possibilities for Distance and Mass\, Mathew McConnell
DESCRIPTION:More Possibilities for Distance and Mass\nMathew McConnell\nOpening Reception | Friday\, January 8th\, 2016 | 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through February 5\, 2016\nOne-Day Workshop | Friday\, February 5\, 2016 | 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City solo exhibition debut of Mathew McConnell. An Arkansas-based artist\, McConnell is a provocateur\, engaging a dialogue of appropriation\, originality and authenticity almost entirely outside the purview of the ceramics sphere. A cerebral artist\, McConnell’s approach to art is analytical and pragmatic using others art as a catalyst for his own. \n“My current investigations are based on the works of other visual artists. Often using a singular form or image as a starting point\, I recreate the work with alterations to suit my own compositional needs. The resulting forms vary between what could be mistaken as a facsimile of another artist’s work and an artwork with a source seemingly outside any individual reference. \nIn the construction of these replicant objects\, I sometimes find myself trying to pinpoint the exact moment at which the work becomes more mine than theirs. Sometimes this moment occurs in the mere selection of a form\, and at other times it does not occur at all. By careful construction of these simulated\, manipulated\, exalted\, and subverted forms\, I find\, at the best of times\, a means of reconciling the difference between what is an art of someone else’s and what is an art of my own.” – Mathew McConnell \nMathew McConnell (b. 1979\, Johnstown\, PA) holds an MFA from the University of Colorado\, Boulder\, and a BFA from Valdosta State University in Georgia. He has held numerous solo exhibitions and his works have been included in group exhibitions in China\, Australia\, New Zealand\, and in many venues across the United States. In 2012\, Mathew was granted an “Emerging Artist” award from the National Council on Education in Ceramic Art. He has also been a resident at the Archie Bray Foundation\, Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts\, and was Artist in Residence and Guest Lecturer of Contemporary Craft at Unitec in Auckland\, New Zealand. His work was recently the subject of a profile in the publication Ceramics: Art and Perception. He is currently serving as an Assistant Professor at the University of Arkansas\, where he oversees the ceramics area.

SUMMARY:Naomi Cleary & Perry Haas
DESCRIPTION:Naomi Cleary & Perry Haas\nOpening Reception | Friday\, November 21\, 2015 | 5:00  – 7:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through December 18\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the two-person Exhibition of Naomi Cleary & Perry Haas. This exhibition highlights the eclecticism prevalent within the field of contemporary ceramics. \nCleary uses the industrial process of mold making and casting to create replicas of existing objects. Repeating form time and again. Cleary’s expression comes through her drawing and layering of the surfaces\, creating colorful abstract patterns and recognizable imagery. Her drawings unfold on the interior and exterior of the porcelain forms. \nHaas creates one-off forms on the potter’s wheel. Each piece documents the subtleties of its making. Furthering this Haas uses wood firing that leaves the flame\, ash and time to develop the ceramic surface. While Haas has shown himself to be knowledgeable of the firing process\, there is still a fair amount of chance as to how each piece will evolve in the kiln. Their separate approach to pottery comes from seemingly irreconcilable positions\, but oddly the pairing opens a space to consider their similarities. \nNaomi received a BFA from The University of the Arts\, Philadelphia PA in 2002 and an MFA in 2007 from The Ohio State University\, Columbus OH\, returning to Philadelphia in early 2008. Currently\, she is the Associate Director of Retail and Marketing at the Clay Studio in Philadelphia. \nPerry has held residences in Missoula\, Montana and in Guldagergaar\, Denmark. He has been awarded the Young Wood Fire Artist Award of 2014 at the European Wood Fire Conference. Currently Perry is a resident at The Archie Bray Foundation\, in Helena Montana.

DESCRIPTION:A part of\, a parting\nEun-Ha Paek\nOpening Reception | Friday\, October 9\, 2015 | 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through November 6\, 2015\nArtist Talk | Thursday\, November 5\, 2015 | 3:00 p.m. \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the Solo Exhibition of Eun-Ha Paek. Eun-Ha harnesses humor through juxtaposing the familiar and the bizarre. Her works have a startling playfulness in spite of their preciousness. She is a visionary artist whose intimate sculptures elicit the uncanny. \n“The same way a boulder on a hill stores potential energy\, a banana peel on the floor is the setup to a joke\, storing potential “ha-has”. The setup might cause a smirk\, without any real action taking place. My work uses this potential to construct narratives on the precipice of the familiar and strange; to explore our inner workings of grief and hope with humor.” – Eun-Ha Paek \nEun-Ha Paek born in Seoul\, Korea and lives in Brooklyn\, NY. She received a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Her animated films have screened in the Guggenheim Museum\, Sundance Film Festival and venues internationally. Grants and awards include a Travel and Study Grant from The Jerome Foundation (2008) and the Anna Siok Award from Greenwich House Pottery (2014). Her work has received mentions in The New York Times\, Entertainment Weekly and G4 Tech TV. She has been a guest lecturer at Rhode Island School of Design and Fashion Institute of Technology and a visiting critic at Maryland Institute College of Art.

DESCRIPTION:No Truth\, No Lies\nAndrea Clark\nOpening Reception | Thursday\, July 9\, 2015 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through August 7\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the recent works of Andrea Clark in her New York City solo exhibition debut. An artist originally from Kentucky\, Andrea was selected by a three person panel to participate in Greenwich House Pottery’s ten month resident artist program. This exhibition showcases the work that she has produced during her time here. It highlights her delicate\, varied ceramic experimentations in form\, color\, texture\, and light. Over her tenure at GHP Andrea sourced materials and experimented with scale\, surface\, and technique to create some truly unexpected pieces. \n“My current work concentrates on constructing objects out of folded paper painted with porcelain. Through this intricate process of making\, I re-familiarize myself with the object. By reducing it to a permanent\, solid\, material form I seek to release the object’s immaterial essence. I perceive the end of my time at Greenwich House Pottery as the beginning of my experimentation with the essence of objects.” –Andrea Clark \nAndrea Clark (b. 1990) received her BFA from the University of Kentucky in 2013. Clark has exhibited in Seattle\, Cincinnati\, Michigan\, Kentucky\, and the Netherlands.

SUMMARY:GHP Artists Exhibition 2015
DESCRIPTION:GHP Artists Exhibition 2015\nOpening Reception | Thursday\, May 21\, 2015 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through June 12\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the Annual Greenwich House Pottery Artists Exhibition. Each Spring we honor and celebrate the hundreds of talented individuals who sign up for class\, prolifically make work\, and bring vitality to our tight-knit clay community. The works on display are carefully selected by each artist\, and represent their most successful piece or own personal favorite. A ceramic showcase this vibrant\, varied\, and vast cannot be found often! \n“Being of ‘ancient vintage\,’ I have a long corridor of memories to draw from. Since Jane Hartsook\, I’ve experienced so many different directors\, teachers\, studio managers\, assistants\, and students. Within this stream\, what has remained a constant is the essence of a warm and encouraging community. I’ve witnessed a stimulating exchange of ideas\, the richness of diverse backgrounds and lives – all with the common denominator of an intense and passionate focus on clay. \nThe yearly exhibition of work done by the students has retained a vitality and scope of imagination that has been a source of great pleasure. The sheer trajectory of the work has been stimulating and impressive. \nWorking with clay these many years allowed me to bring along my involvement in the dance and music worlds. From each of these practices\, I drew upon my intense interest in the reach and breath of a ‘line.’ This was not conscious\, but a realization that came with the immersion in doing. I’m eternally grateful that I still have the strong desire to work with clay\, and that Greenwich House Pottery exists where I and so many others have found a precious haven.” \n– Lillian Miller 2015 – GHP Member

SUMMARY:Matter of Time (affection\, affliction)\, Jeremy Hatch
DESCRIPTION:Matter of Time (affection\, affliction)\nJeremy Hatch\nOpening Reception | Friday\, April 10\, 2015 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through May 8\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York solo exhibition debut of Jeremy Hatch. Hatch\, an artist based in Montana\, has done the unimaginable – cast a chain link fence. In this large-scale installation Hatch has reimagined the space into a porcelain virtuosic performance bisecting the gallery space with the fence weighted down with locks. During the exhibition\, visitors will be able to add their own locks to the fence. \n“‘Matter of Time’ (affection affliction) builds upon my use of the physical and psychological properties of porcelain as a means to explore themes of memory\, relationships\, nostalgia and failure. The installation consists of a cast porcelain chain-link fence running the length of the gallery and relies on viewer participation in order to complete the work. From a library of plaster molds\, gallery visitors are invited to cast a lock\, inscribe it\, and attach it to the ceramic chain-link panels. At the conclusion of the exhibition\, the fence and amassed locks will be fired\, fusing the objects together\, serving as a permanent record of the event. \nOver the past decade the ritual of attaching ‘love locks’ to public bridges\, fences\, gates and other urban structures has become an international phenomenon. My interest lies in the inherent contradictions contained within this seemingly innocuous romantic gesture. The custom can also be seen as a form of destructive vandalism. Just as sections of historic bridges are collapsing under the weight of accumulated locks\, my porcelain replica risks a similar fate. Rather than struggling to maintain a sense of security\, it embraces the potential for failure and the realization that vulnerability is fundamental.”—Jeremy Hatch \nJeremy Hatch is currently Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Montana State University and founder of Ricochet Studio\, a design lab that explores the intersections of art/craft/design by collaborating with artists from various disciplines. Hatch’s studio practice employs a variety of techniques and concepts linked to ceramics\, from vessel-based sculpture to large-scale porcelain installations\, digital and architectural applications. He has attended a number of international residencies including the Takumi Studio in Japan\, the European Ceramic Work Center in the Netherlands\, and Kohler’s Arts/Industry program in Wisconsin. Since 2003 he has led numerous courses and workshops that focus on industrial processes for ceramics: design and prototype production\, mold-making\, and slip casting.

SUMMARY:Ghada Amer\, Trisha Baga\, Robin Cameron\, Joanne Greenbaum\, Pam Lins\, Alice Mackler and David Salle Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Ghada Amer\, Trisha Baga\, Robin Cameron\, Joanne Greenbaum\,\nPam Lins\, Alice Mackler and David Salle\nFebruary 27 – March 27\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition bringing together for the first time the ceramics of New York City artists Ghada Amer\, Trisha Baga\, Robin Cameron\, Joanne Greenbaum\, Pam Lins\, Alice Mackler and David Salle\, into one exhibition. These artists highlight the artworld having found expression in clay – encapsulating the mood of the contemporary scene. All of these artists work out of the studios at Greenwich House Pottery\, through class\, a clandestine ceramics club or our residency program. Though the Pottery might be the thread binding these artists together there is a commonality in their expressive approach to material manipulation and a profound intrigue for color. \nFiguration\, abstraction\, neo-expressionism and the postmodern are all represented in this exhibition. Each artist approaches the material with similar motivation\, to exploit clay’s potential – bending the material to their will. Salle explores and his work documents the physicality of the material\, pushing\, pulling\, pinching and tearing at the forms while Mackler uses the material as an expression of her inner impulse. The pure abstractions of Greenbaum are in-between\, neither representative but not completely without grounding. Baga and Lins recreate actual objects\, or in Baga’s case\, persons. Their approach to the material expresses a real joy in exploration and creation. Cameron\, whose work vacillates between the figure and the vessel\, recycles the old to breathe life into the new. Amer’s works are representations of the figure in her case\, the woman. Amer works within the tradition of functional forms made with vivid porcelain coloration. Regardless of the artist\, color is a central theme among their works\, that and an unbounded enthusiasm for material potential. \nThe groundswell of interest in ceramics now taking place is unprecedented and New York City is the epicenter. In addition to the numerous gallery and museum exhibitions around the city\, our studios are filled with artists looking to expand their practice. These artists are exploiting clay’s expressive potential and have found a welcoming home in our studios. Whether making work for an upcoming solo exhibition in their respective gallery\, or developing ideas for the Whitney Biennial\, their activity has added to the culture\, community and undoubtedly to the discourse of the field. At present this work is largely neoexpressionist and at odds with conceptual art\, though not to imply that it is without meaning. It is raw\, unmediated\, irreverent and reverential. This art turns away from conceptualism to look inward\, with the focus on itself and the medium. \nGHADA AMER \n(b. 1963\, Cairo\, Egypt) and emigrated at age 11 to France where she began her artistic training at Villa Arson in Nice. She lives and works in New York City\, where she is represented by Cheim & Read Gallery and has had her work presented in numerous solo and group local exhibitions at Cheim & Read\, Deitch Projects\, the Whitney Biennial and the Brooklyn Museum of Art among several others.

SUMMARY:Scapes\, Lee Somers
DESCRIPTION:Scapes\nLee Somers\nOpening Reception | Friday\, January 16\, 2015 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through February 13\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City Solo Exhibition debut of Alabama-based artist Lee Somers. Lee constructs multilayered assemblages – mosaics of miscellaneous resplendent ceramic shards that reference\, among others\, early Chinese landscape paintings. Lee’s ceramic paintings are narratives that “compress geologic time” collapsing the entirety of human civilization into a moment. \nLee is “fascinated by the intersection of our cultural and natural histories. Architecture and landscape locate the human perspective in this nexus. Cartography and the natural sciences abstract and expand\, overlaying our perceptions with alternate models of time and space. In travel\, time spent outdoors\, observation of ruins\, cities\, landscapes\, and moments of sublime experience I am compelled by the systems in which we exist.” \nFinding “ceramics the perfect material metaphor for the entwinement of natural and cultural processes… a microcosm\, compressing geologic time and the history of civilization into moments. Working with it is a process of reconciling intentions with serendipity… The resulting works weave a matrix of relations where juxtaposition is evident\, components are both individual and integrated\, and imagination is given multiple points of departure.” –Lee Somers \nLee Somers (b. 1977) works in ceramics and mixed media to explore a variety of interests in geology\, landscape\, material culture and architecture. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in galleries and museums\, most recently at the Fort Collins Lincoln Center (Colorado) and the Seattle Design Center (Washington). A teacher and artist recently awarded the Franzen Teaching Fellowship at Colorado State University and Art 342. Lee currently lives in Montevallo\, Alabama where he is an Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Montevallo.

SUMMARY:Yes Sir No Sir This Way That\, Thaddeus Erdahl
DESCRIPTION:Yes Sir No Sir This Way That\nThaddeus Erdahl\nArtist Reception | Thursday\, December 18\, 2014 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view December 4\, 2014 through January 9\, 2015 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City Solo Exhibition debut of sculptor Thaddeus Erdahl. \n“When considering the murky reservoir of human history\, it is difficult to separate legend from reality.  Through my work\, I examine human myth in the modern age\, specifically on characters that emerge from our society’s underbelly; the less popular folk. Using their “legends”\, I feel compelled to tell stories that illustrate analogies in life; blending together archetypes\, shared experiences\, and my own personal mythology. Who we are in the world is a kaleidoscope of interpretations\, biased memories\, and personal connections. \nCeramic sculpture and portraiture\, in particular\, are forms of a visual narration that I use to satisfy my urge for documenting what I see in human nature. Evocative of well-loved toys and obsolete artifacts\, I use the implied history of these objects to encourage the viewer to disconnect from the present situation and conjure their own individual narratives from my sculptures. \nWorking with concepts that are personal and sometimes narcissistic perceptions of the gloomy side of life\, dark humor is my buffer. Dry or irreverent\, it is humor that mystifies the tragic.” –Thaddeus Erdahl \nThaddeus (tj) Erdahl has exhibited his ceramic sculpture and presented workshops and lectures nationally throughout the United States. Thaddeus received an M.F.A. in Ceramics from the University of Florida where he was a University of Florida Alumni Fellowship recipient. In 2008\, he attended Think Tank III\, a national arts in higher education symposium\, as a Graduate Fellowship Recipient. After graduate school Thaddeus was selected as an Artist-in-Resident at the prestigious Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts and briefly acted as their Program Manager. In the spring of 2012 he completed a 5-month ceramics sabbatical replacement at the University of Northern Iowa. Recently Thaddeus was award a one month Artist-in-Residency at Guldagergaard International Ceramic Research Center\, Denmark.

SUMMARY:Adam Field\, Samuel Johnson and Peter Pincus Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Adam Field\, Samuel Johnson and Peter Pincus\nArtist Reception | November 14\, 2014 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view October 24 through November 22\, 2014 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the work of Adam Field\, Samuel Johnson and Peter Pincus in a dynamic reassessment of surface. Using the pottery form as a catalyst for infinite variation\, these artists endeavor to reconcile their unique approach to mark-making with a conceptual interest in relationship to form. Field\, Johnson and Pincus set about to reevaluate the connection between form\, surface and content. \nAdam Field earned his BA in Art from Fort Lewis College. For two years he immersed himself in the San Francisco bay area\, where he began his full time studio practice. He relocated to Maui\, where he established a thriving studio business. He spent most of 2008 in Icheon\, South Korea\, studying traditional Korean pottery under 6th generation Onggi master Kim Il Mahn. In 2013 he created HIDE-N-SEEKAH at the NCECA conference in Houston\, TX. After maintaining his studio in Durango\, CO for 5 years\, Adam recently moved to Helena\, MT where he is a long-term artist in residence at The Archie Bray Foundation. \nSamuel Johnson is an Associate Professor of Art at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University. Samuel has participated in sixty-eight exhibitions\, including seven solo exhibitions. His work is in the permanent collection of the North Dakota Museum of Art and featured in the book\, Stoked: Five Artists of Fire and Clay. Samuel grew up on the western prairie of the Red River Valley\, outside of Breckenridge\, Minnesota. Before earning his MA and MFA from the University of Iowa in 2005\, he apprenticed with Richard Bresnahan\, studied ceramic design at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts – The School of Design in Copenhagen\, and worked in Japan as a studio guest of Koie Ryoji. He lives in St. Joseph\, Minnesota. \nPeter Pincus is a practicing artist\, living and making in Penfield\, NY\, and Visiting Professor of Ceramics at Rochester Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Intersect\, Kenyon Hansen
DESCRIPTION:Intersect\nKenyon Hansen\nArtist Reception | Friday\, September 12\, 2014 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through October 10\, 2014 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City solo exhibition debut of Michigan-based artist\, Kenyon Hansen. An artist with an active studio practice\, Hansen has invented a unique approach to form over his short but adventurous career. In the last few years Hansen has rendered his practice to an elegant\, vibrant and very distinctive form and surface. Hansen’s jars\, coffee pots\, mugs and teapots are some of the most original being made today. Sturdy and robust crockery that falls somewhere between farmhouse and modern. \n“I believe that finely crafted\, thoughtfully made pottery can contribute to a renaissance of tradition and habit. My hope is that the pots I make can play a role and be a factor in a renewal of ritual. Clay allows me to play with a physical language. When I throw or hand build\, I am engaged in the conversation\, curiosity often pushes the dialog\, while the desire to find something new guides me forward. I strive to create pottery that is both considered and balanced containing a healthy dose of spirit and care.” – Kenyon Hansen \nKenyon Hansen is a full-time studio potter from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He has been an artist–in-residence at the Archie Bray Foundation\, where he was awarded the Lincoln Fellowship\, as well as Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts. In 2013 he was selected as an Emerging Artist by Ceramics Monthly. Kenyon has taught at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts and Greenwich House Pottery in New York City. His functional ceramics can be found in galleries throughout the country and in friend’s homes. Kenyon is currently a visiting artist and adjunct instructor at Finlandia University in Hancock\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:On a Grecian Urn\, Adam Shiverdecker
DESCRIPTION:On a Grecian Urn\nAdam Shiverdecker\nExhibition on view July 10 through August 2\, 2014 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the New York City solo exhibition debut of Manhattan-based artist\, Adam Shiverdecker. An artist with a unique approach to material\, Shiverdecker takes advantage of the “shortcomings” of the clay’s materiality. Wrapping it around high temperature wire and the subsequent heating it to temperatures beyond inhabitable to sustain life\, causes the ceramic to wither and crack along the armature. The result is a look of artifact and antiquity which makes the work all the more tragic and haunting. \nAdam’s work “imagines what would happen if the entire military arsenal were simply pushed into the ocean. I’m a committed pacifist\, but I am also drawn to the sleekness\, the power\, and the materiality of machines of war. My work attempts to represent my ambivalence to icons of military might by taking the forms of fighter jets\, submarines\, and missiles and denaturing their surfaces. By reforming weapons out of wire\, I reference both the practice of children’s war games and modeling…I then coat these structures in…clay\, allowing for an arbitrary amount of decay. It is this fantasy of decay…which my work tries to trigger. I also apply this logic to historical forms\, specifically Greek ceramic vessels. I’m interested in these Greek vessels because of the way they represent a culture that venerates war and conflict\, as this seems to anticipate elements of our own bellicose culture.”—Adam Shiverdecker \nAdam Shiverdecker is the Studio & Fabrications Manager of Greenwich House Pottery. Prior to accepting this position he was the Assistant Professor of 3D Interdisciplinary Art/Ceramics at The University of Toledo. Before assuming his role at Toledo\, he was the Artist-In-Residence in the ceramics program and adjunct faculty at Tyler School of Art and a two-time summer resident artist at The Archie Bray Foundation in Helena\, Montana (2009\, 2011). Adam was named an emerging artist by Ceramics Monthly and was the Myhre Scholar at The Archie Bray Foundation. Before pursuing his MFA at the University of South Carolina (2008)\, Adam graduated from the University of Toledo with a Bachelor of Education in Visual Arts (2005).

SUMMARY:Things I Learned From Comic Books and Bumper Stickers\, Kristen Morgin
DESCRIPTION:Things I Learned From Comic Books and Bumper Stickers\nKristen Morgin\nOpening Reception | Thursday\, April 10\, 2014 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view April 10 through May 10\, 2014 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the solo exhibition of California-based artist\, Kristen Morgin. An artist with a diverse studio practice\, Morgin makes work referencing death and decay via enormous unfired clay sculptures and equally as elegant small scale trompe l’oeil ceramic sculptures referencing everyday objects and pop iconography. The work on display here represents her sculptures from her very own collection\, work that she has held onto\, which lends itself to insight into the artist’s relationship to her work. \n“I started out that way but recently I began to create pieces from things I already know I like and live with\, tributary objects that look like their model. The first piece I did like this was a Monopoly game I had at home. I wanted to take this mass produced item and make it one of a kind. When I was creating it I was thinking about my own history with the game. It occurred to me that the goal was to annihilate your opponent and take all their assets… Relationships started to happen when I was making work for the table. Sometimes the objects next to their models are like a longtime married couple that need each other and bring out the best in one another. At other times there is a confrontation and one piece overtakes the other. I liked these conversations and it brought a new dialogue to the work.”—Kristen Morgin \nKristen L.
