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.

SUMMARY:A part of\, a parting\, Eun-Ha Paek
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.

SUMMARY:No Truth\, No Lies\, Andrea Clark
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. Internationally\, she has shown her work widely\, including at Biennales in Venice and Sydney. \nTRISHA BAGA\n \n(b. 1985\, Venice\, Florida) is an artist living and working in New York. She has had solo exhibitions at Vilma Gold Gallery in London\, and the Kunstverein Munich\, and has shown her work at Greene Naftali Gallery\, EAI\, PS1\, Johann Koenig Gallery\, Performa09\, The Housatonic Museum\, LAXART\, and El Centro Cultural Montehermoso.  \nROBIN CAMERON\n \n(b.1981\, British Columbia\, Canada) is an artist based in New York\, who is known for her books\, prints and zines.

She is represented by Rachel Uffner Gallery in New York\, greengrassi in London\, Shane Campbell Gallery in Chicago\, IL\, Nicolas Krupp Contemporary Art in Switzerland\, Galerie Crone in Berlin\, Germany\, and Van Horn in Dusseldorf\, Germany. \nPAM LINS \n(b. Chicago\, Illinois) lives and works in Brooklyn\, NY. Lins teaches at the Copper Union School of Art\, Princeton University\, and is on the faculty of Bard’s MFA program. Lins is represented by Rachel Uffner Gallery\, NY. Lins has shown in the Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of Art\, the Tang Museum of Art and CCS Bard Hessel Museum of Art. Lins has received numerous awards including a Radcliffe Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies Harvard (2013)\, The Guggenheim Foundation (2008)\, the Howard Foundation Award in Visual Arts from Brown University (2007)\, and the Pollack/Krasner Foundation (1998). Lins has been reviewed in the New York Times\, Art in America\, Bomb Magazine\, the New Yorker\, and ArtForum. \nALICE MACKLER\n \n(b. 1931\, New York City) Mackler’s work was singled-out in reviews by Roberta Smith in the New York Times and Andrew Russeth in the New York Observer. Alice Mackler was also included in an article titled\, “6 Artists Who Made It Big After Turning 70” by Julia Halperin in Blouin Art Info March 23\, 2013. In 2013\, she had her first solo exhibition at Kerry Schuss. She studied at the Arts Students League and received a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York. \nDAVID SALLE\n \n(b. 1952\, Norman\, Oklahoma) lives and works in Brooklyn. In 1970\, he began his studies at the newly founded California Institute of the Arts in Valencia\, where he worked with John Baldessari.

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. Morgin was born in 1968 in Brunswick\, GA.  Kristen is the eldest daughter of Lowell and Lucille Morgin.  She has three younger sisters. Kristen earned a BA degree from California State University\, Hayward.  Kristen earned a MFA degree with an emphasis in ceramics from Alfred University in 1997.  Kristen currently resides in Gardena\, CA. Kristen has held job positions as a gallery docent\, a children’s playhouse set painter\, a secretary in an auto glass shop\, and a professor of art.  She currently earns her living as an artist.

SUMMARY:Concrescence\, Ted Adler
DESCRIPTION:Concrescence\nTed Adler\nArtist Reception | Friday\, February 28\, 2014 | 6:00  – 8:00 p.m.\nExhibition on view through March 27\, 2014 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Kansas-based artist\, Ted Adler\, in his New York City solo exhibition debut. Adler makes biomorphic abstractions using the vessel as a metaphor for the figure. These current wood fired vessels are his latest in his documenting the effects of process and time\, simulating an experience of existence\, which Adler references with his title\, Concrescence\, a term of Alfred Whitehead’s denoting the formation of an entity\, giving form to formlessness. \n“Clay is interesting…as both a material and a metaphor. When making\, I look to engage a sense of “madeness” through the plasticity of the material and the sensuous\, fluid volumes of the vessel. The rich\, varied surfaces of wood-firing convey the change and flux of the kiln environment. These processes tend to capture the sense of clay’s protean malleability that enhances the way that the objects might be interpreted as a metaphor for the fugitive nature of experience. By using the vessel as an analogy for selfhood and subjecting it to processes of forming and firing that lend themselves to a sense of transformation (which is both actual and figural)\, I hope to elicit a sense that our relationship to ourselves and the world around us is more slippery than we ordinarily like to admit.” –Ted Adler \nTed Adler is Associate Professor of Art and Area Head of Ceramics Media at Wichita State University. He received his BA from Lewis and Clark College in Portland\, OR in 1993 and his MFA from Ohio University in Athens\, OH in 2002. Adler also studied with renowned artist Toshiko Takaezu\, with whom he apprenticed for more than a year in her Quakertown\, NJ studio. Adler has exhibited work in more than 75 exhibitions in addition to lecturing and demonstrating at numerous ceramic centers and universities across the nation\, including the Archie Bray Foundation\, Arrowmont School of Crafts\, and the Anderson Ranch Art Center.

SUMMARY:red\, blue\, and white\, Steven Lee
DESCRIPTION:red\, blue\, and white\nSteven Lee\nApril 11 – May 9\, 2013 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Montana-based artist Steven Young Lee in New York City Solo Exhibition debut. Lee explores identity through the appropriation of historical style. Though his approach is characteristically postmodern and he addresses identity through the substance of existence via cultural constructions\, his approach is refreshingly not ironical. \n“My work investigates how individual realities are formed. I am fascinated in concepts and development of self that are based on identification with environment\, traditions and superstitions while often straddling cultural boundaries…challenge[ing] preconceptions that can reshape our sense of identity and culture…I see these as reminders of the past\, but also as objects that I have become emotionally invested in discovering my own sense of place.”—Steven Young Lee \nSteven Young Lee is the Resident Artist Director of the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena\, Montana. A native of Chicago\, Lee received his MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University in 2004. In 2004-5\, he lectured and taught at numerous universities throughout China. While there\, he created a new body of work as part of a one-year cultural and educational exchange fellowship in Jingdezhen\, Jianxi Province. A former Bray resident\, Steven also spent a year teaching at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver\, B.C. in 2005-2006. \nIn the United States\, he has taught classes at Alfred University\, Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan\, the Clay Art Center in New York and the Lillstreet Studio in Chicago. His work has been exhibited in China\, Canada and throughout the United States and is held in private collections in New York\, Pennsylvania\, Illinois and Montana.

SUMMARY:Perceptive Pleasure\, Rob Raphael & Jessica Stoller
DESCRIPTION:Perceptive Pleasure\nRob Raphael & Jessica Stoller\nFebruary 28 – March 26\, 2013 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the work of Rob Raphael & Jessica Stoller. Related through medium and attitude\, both Raphael and Stoller work in porcelain exploring the perceptual connection of the material toward beauty and the perception of the feminine. Stoller examines the idea of beauty – a dialectical construct bound with the grotesque. Raphael creates architectonic minimalist forms imbued with pattern and decorative elements whose material components he enlists to create sexual tension. \n“I am interested in using clay as a vehicle to explore issues of idealized beauty\, vanity and the subjugation of the female body using porcelain as my primary media\, a material inextricably linked to secrecy\, desire and commodification. I create figurative-based sculptures that are often partially masked\, covered or unseen; calling viewers to witness these haunting works\, including bodies contorted in marred\, embellished form. From Marie Antoinette’s breast cup to the Venus of Willdendorf\, my work evokes forms and objectsof the past\, creating compelling ceramic sculptures that takes lineage from the vast history of the female body articulated in clay.” – Jessica Stoller \nJessica Stoller received her BFA from the College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Stoller’s work has been widely reviewed\, in such publications as The New York Times\, Ceramics: Art and Perception\, and N. Pandora Feminist Journal\, among others. She has been included in recent exhibitions at The Bronx Art Museum\, NY; Fuller Craft Museum\, MA; and Nuture Art\, NY. Solo show venues include Hionas Gallery\, NY; and The Clay Studio\, PA. Stoller has been honored to participate in residencies including the Kohler Arts & Industry Program\, WI and The Museum of Arts and Design’s Open Studio Program\, NY. A Daimler Chrysler Emerging Artist Nominee\, her work is also included in numerous private collections. \n“In my recent work\, I have been creating structures from unfinished lumber\, a traditional material for building. Ornamenting the lumber structures are delicate porcelain floral bouquets and geometric shapes fused together with dripping glaze and paint. I am interested in combining these perceived masculine and feminine materials to create a platform to investigate structure and ornament\, decoration and function\, and sexual difference.” – Robert Raphael \nRobert Raphael lives and works in Brooklyn\, New York. His work has been exhibited nationally\, including a solo exhibition at The Clay Studio (Philadelphia\, PA). Recent group exhibitions include Dean Project (New  York)\, Like the Spice Gallery (Brooklyn\, NY)\, The Fine Arts Center\, University of Arkansas (Fayetteville\, AR)\, and Delaware Center for Contemporary Art (Wilmington\, DE ). This spring Raphael will be exhibiting in the Bronx Museum’s Artist in the Marketplace Biennial. Raphael received his MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and his BFA from Rhode Island School of Design.

SUMMARY:My Voice Changes When I Speak Your Language\, Linda Sormin
DESCRIPTION:My Voice Changes When I Speak Your Language\nLinda Sormin\nOctober 26 – November 21\, 2012 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Linda Sormin’s new work in her first solo exhibition in New York City. \nSormin fills the gallery with intricate ceramic forms and invites an encounter with cultural and familial ghosts. Embroidering raw clay through objects she has found and re-purposed\, Sormin uses this collection of material and things to enact stories of her ancestral Batak Indonesian past and experiences as an immigrant moving between cultures. \n“Sormin practices the art of the slow burn– both literally… and also figuratively\, in that her sprawling installations communicate a carefully controlled fury. It is a vivid\, visual chamber music\, in which not a single note of pragmatism\, didacticism or functionalism can be heard… The visitor is encouraged to wander through this ceramic wonderland as if through an ancient forest.” –Glenn Adamson \nThrough objects and large-scale installations\, Linda Sormin’s work explores issues of fragility\, aggression\, mobility and survival. Born in Bangkok\, Sormin grew up in Canada and worked in community development for four years in Thailand and Laos. She studied literature and ceramics at Andrews University\, Sheridan School of Craft & Design (Diploma ’01) and Alfred University (MFA ’03). \nSormin’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally\, most recently at the West Norway Museum of Decorative Art (Bergen\, Norway)\, Denver Art Museum (Denver\, USA)\, gl Holtegaard (Denmark)\, Vallauris (France) and Middlesbrough (UK). From 2003-06 she taught ceramics at Emily Carr University of Art + Design (Vancouver\, BC) and the Rhode Island School of Design (Providence\, RI). She is currently Professor\, Head of Ceramics at the Sheridan School of Craft & Design in Oakville\, Canada.

SUMMARY:Peter Gourfain
DESCRIPTION:SEPTEMBER 6 – OCTOBER 4\, 2012 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery at Greenwich House Pottery is pleased to present the work of artist Peter Gourfain. In his second solo exhibition at the Jane Hartsook Gallery\, Gourfain shows work that spans his life as an artist and exemplifies his interdisciplinary approach to art making—with prints\, drawings\, carvings\, bronze and ceramics. \n“For all his commitment to social justice\, what Gourfain does in the face of times like these is what all artists do: make art. Unlike most contemporary production\, Gourfain has never been restricted to the galleries and museums. And unlike most art not restricted to museums and galleries\, his is in fact “museum-quality” art\, wherever it is found. His production includes not only the paintings\, sculptures\, pots\, and prints shown in “high” art contexts\, but striking banners\, leaflets\, buttons\, and graphics that have also been seen in the streets\, the meetings\, the publications\, the demonstrations.” – Lucy R. Lippard \nPeter Gourfain was born in 1934 and received his BFA from the Art Institute of Chicago in 1956. He currently lives and in Brooklyn\, New York and has been on the faculty of Greenwich House Pottery since 1995. Gourfain has had solo exhibitions at the Projects Gallery in Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania\, the Elvehjem Museum in Madison\, Wisconsin\, the Patricia Hamilton Gallery in New York City and at the Brooklyn Museum\, in Brooklyn\, New York. His work has been included in the Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum\, the Corcoran Biennale at the Corcoran in Washington\, DC.\, the Museum of Modern Art and most recently at the National Academy of Fine Arts in New York City. Gourfain received the New York Foundation for the Arts fellowship\, a Guggenheim Fellowship and a New York State Council for the Arts Grant. He has been a visiting artist at the University of California Davis\, Penland School of Crafts\, Rhode Island School of Design and Skowhegan among others.

SUMMARY:Hope Rovelto
DESCRIPTION:Hope Rovelto\nJuly 12 – August 9\, 2012 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the work of Hope Rovelto for her New York City Solo Exhibition debut. This work represents the culmination of her 10 months as Greenwich House Pottery’s Resident Artist. \n“My work involves contemporary issues in my life as well as those in the world around me. The individual and social topics I choose to depict are global issues that not only serve as a method in which to deal with my own frustrations with my past\, present and future\, but also serve as a way for viewers to think about frustrations in their own experience. I am influenced by American culture\, current media and politics\, and what I view as the degradation of the human experience through social and environmental poisons which plague our world. I feel that it is my job as an artist to not only explore these ideas but also present them\, provoking an awareness response. Because I believe that art reflects the world in which it exists\, politics and art often intersect. As we approach the 2012 presidential election\, I want to create a show that depicts the ever-growing tension in our intense political climate.” –Hope Rovelto \nHope Rovelto earned her BFA in sculpture from Maine College of Art and her MFA in ceramics from RIT. She has taught ceramics and art history at the University of the Arts and Philadelphia University. She owns a screen printing and ceramic decal business in Philadelphia\, and is currently finishing up a residency at Greenwich House Pottery in NYC. Hope was a resident artist at Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts\, where she currently sits on the Board of Directors. Other residencies Hope has participated in include Arrowmont School of Craft in TN\, Penland in NC\, and Oxbow in MI.

SUMMARY:Julia Haft-Candell and Benjamin DeMott
DESCRIPTION:Julia Haft-Candell and Benjamin DeMott\nApril 19 – May 17\, 2012 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the work of Julia Haft-Candell and Benjamin DeMott. Their installation gives rise to an alternative way of seeing ourselves\, materials and the space between these components. This exhibition relates to the figurative – psychological\, physiological\, metaphorical and active and passive notions of impermanence\, mapping\, reclaiming\, and collecting. Beyond their conceptual affinities their work reflects a unique\, almost contrarian\, handling of the material prevalent in today’s expanded field. \n“Fragile\, thread-thin ceramic extrusions are tenuously bound to one another by glues and household fix-it material. The painfully delicate fired ceramic line\, zigs and zags splintering into a complex network where the familiarity of scale shifts from that of the watchmaker to the astronomer. Interspersed within these precarious structures are decorative debris…Highlighting impermanence\, these assemblages are contingent and situational\, potentially configured for only a short duration. A playful longing for solidity amidst operatives of change inspires this dialogue with material. My intent is to afford the audience a confrontation\, a friction between wonder\, awe and the trepidation felt by the prospects of uncertainty. I aim to explore what uncertainty has to offer.” –Benjamin DeMott \n“Through my work I am echoing the characteristics of a complex system. Seemingly disparate events align to form a whole. Each element of the system is unique\, yet needs the others in order to function\, as small changes in a part can drastically alter the integrity of the entire structure. By creating a vocabulary comprised of cells that are repetitively constructed\, added\, subtracted and rearranged\, I can speak of the phenomenal interconnectedness of all things… Ultimately the goal is to form a composition that most effectively speaks to the ambiguity of perception and the complexity of being.”—Julia Haft-Candell \nJulia Haft-Candell was born in Oakland\, California. She received an MFA from California State University Long Beach in 2010. She currently lives and works in Los Angeles. Benjamin DeMott was born in Allentown\, Pennsylvania. He earned an MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University and a BFA from Tyler School of Art at Temple University.

SUMMARY:Forehandedness\, David East
DESCRIPTION:Forehandedness\nDavid East\nMarch 1 – 29\, 2012 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present Forehandedness—new sculpture by Baltimore-based artist David S. East. For his first solo exhibition with this gallery\, East has created monuments of dailiness\, sculptures that combine ubiquitous ornamentation and serene pastels—at times uniting technology and woven fabric—offering a genealogy of cultural homogenization. East’s work is thoughtful however much the installation effortlessly transposes formalism and irony. \n“Through architectural and design references my work has revolved around issues of urban planning\,architectural ornament and design as signifiers of our cultural history. My work attempts to reveal the positive and negative by-products of our attempts to establish order. As Ebenezer Howard’s idealism gives way to white flight and Constance Spry is remade into Martha Stuart as a multi-national; my work attempts to trace these cycles\, combining the nostalgia of gingham with the high modernism of an Eames profile. The sources and images I have sought out: cheap Styrofoam knock-offs of classic decorative trim\, the rosette\, the mantle; become a mirror of the phenomena and peculiarities of an “American” point of view. The approach I have taken attempts to reflect on the monumental within the mundane\, and seeks to bore out the middle of modernism to see its split-level by-products. The work rotates around these axes operating as much a strategy of thinking as of making.”—David S. East \nDavid S. East is Chair of Ceramics at the Maryland Institute College of Art. East has taught as a visiting artist at the University of Missouri-Columbia (2001-2007)\, Alfred University\, Kansas City Art Institute\, Massachusetts College of Art\, Illinois State University\, Illinois Wesleyan University\, Washington University\, Ohio University and Tainan National College of Art\, Tainan\, Taiwan. East’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in juried and curated exhibitions\, most recently at the GICBiennale 2011\, Icheon\, Korea. He has received numerous awards including an Individual Artist Award from the Maryland State Arts Council\, the Lighton Foundation and the McKnight Foundation. He was in residence at the European Ceramic Work Centre in 2007 and was recently the Visiting Artist in Residence at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia\, PA. East received his BFA in Ceramics from the University of Wisconsin – River Falls (1997) and his MFA from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (2000).

SUMMARY:Place/Setting\, Sam Chung
DESCRIPTION:Place/Setting\nSam Chung\nMARCH 3 – MARCH 31\, 2011 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present a new installation by Arizona-based artist Sam Chung. For this New York City exhibition Chung has created a unique installation featuring place/settings on a custom built table for 16 people. \n“The large dinner setting presented here composes individual pieces of tableware into a larger topographical landscape.  This installation is informed by pottery traditions that reflect my own history and experiences. \nPlace\, as it relates to me\, begins with my experience as a second generation Korean-American growing up in Minnesota\, a state with a strong Scandinavian ancestry.  As I later traveled extensively throughout Asia\, I began to understand the duality of place and how it can feel simultaneously foreign and familiar. \nIn 2005\, I was a resident artist at Guldagergaard\, a ceramics center in Denmark.  It was here where I experienced a familiar reverence for the poetic simplicity of contemporary Scandinavian design and the porcelain-ware from Royal Copenhagen.  The work in Place/Setting pairs this discovery with my interest in Korean ceramics and my ongoing curiosity about my own ethnic origin.  The overall presentation provides a comment on cross-cultural identity from the intimacy of a domestic setting. ” -Sam Chung \nSam Chung was born in Minneapolis\, Minnesota and received his MFA from Arizona State University and his B.A. degree from St. Olaf College in Northfield\, Minnesota. In between undergrad and grad school he worked as a special post-bac student at the University of Minnesota. Chung taught at Northern Michigan University and is now teaching at Arizona State University in Tempe. He has had exhibitions at Cervini Haas\, AKAR\, Dubuque Museum of Fine Art\, Sherry Leedy\, Santa Fe Clay\, Lacoste\, Taipei County Yingge Museum\, and the Incheon World Ceramic Center. Chung has work in the collections of the Crocker Art Museum\, Incheon World Ceramic Center (Korea)\, Guldagergaard (Denmark)\, Shepparton Art Gallery (Australia)\, University of Arkansas\, and Arizona State University Ceramics Research Center. Chung has attended residencies at Anderson Ranch Arts Center\, Watershed\, Guldagergaard (Denmark)\, The Pottery Workshop (China). Chung’s work has been included in such publications as Contemporary Ceramics\, The Art of Contemporary American Pottery\, The Complete Guide to High Fire Glazes\, and Masters of Porcelain.

SUMMARY:Folly\, Beth Katleman
DESCRIPTION:Folly\nBeth Katleman\nJanuary 20 – February 17\, 2011 \nThe Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present a new installation by New York-based artist Beth Katleman\, whose work has been described by Ken Johnson in the New York Times as “doll-sized rococo theaters of murder and domestic mayhem.” Her deliciously subversive porcelain sculptures combine rococo ornament with icons from popular culture.” Katleman has created 50 porcelain tableaus each scene is an idealized landscape with water\, topiaries and architectural follies. \n“I have long been fascinated by Toile de Jouy\, the printed fabrics that drape the walls and beds of 18th century France. Peasants cavort in bucolic landscapes decked out with flowers\, all in the shadow of classical ruins. There is something surreal about these scenes\, which float\, disembodied in a world without gravity. I love the contrast between the ornate sensuality and frivolity of the scenes\, and the incongruous setting. Often the 2nd and 3rd generation knock-offs catch my eye\, especially those that project a sense of optimism\, as though they long for a grander existence” –Beth Katleman \nBeth Katleman was born in Park Forest\, Illinois. She holds a BA in English from Stanford University\, an MBA in Arts Management from UCLA and an MFA from Cranbrook. Her work is in many national collections\, including the M.H. de Young Museum\, San Francisco\, CA\, the John Michael Kohler Arts Center\, WI\, Kohler Company\, WI and the Archie Bray Foundation\, Helena\, MT. She has had solo exhibitions in Barneys New York windows and Sybaris Gallery\, Royal Oak\, MI. She has shown in exhibitions at M.H. de Young Museum\, Contemporary Jewish Museum\, San Francisco\, Garth Clark Gallery\, Thomas Healy Gallery\, Storefront for Art and Architecture\, New York and the National Building Museum\, Washington\, D.C. She has had reviews in the New York Times\, American Ceramics\, New Art Examiner\, and Sculpture Magazine. Her grants include a Mid-Atlantic Arts Foundation grant\, Kohler Arts/Industry Fellowship\, Watershed Generation X Award\, and a residency in Cortona\, Italy. Katleman lives and works in Brooklyn\, New York.
