Bull in the China Shop
|
Bull in the China Shop explores the dynamic intersection between fragility and force through the medium of ceramics complimented with two-dimensional imagery of ceramics. Featuring ceramic sculptures, vessels, and 2D works depicting teacups and other forms, the exhibition reflects on the delicate balance between strength and vulnerability. The exhibit showcases how artists play with the duality of literal representations of vessels or challenge traditional notions of form, function, and fragility. From finely crafted ceramics to paintings, this exhibition presents works that teeter on the edge of disruption and elegance, inviting viewers to contemplate the tension within.
As a special feature of this exhibition, The Collector’s Nook, located in the museum's Brick Gallery, offers visitors a more approachable way to engage with ceramics. While the main galleries highlight fine art ceramic sculptures and thought-provoking works that push the boundaries of form and fragility, The Collector’s Nook focuses on functional, handcrafted ceramics that blend beauty with everyday utility. This curated selection provides an opportunity to acquire unique pieces that bring artistry into daily life. Whether you are an experienced collector or new to ceramics, The Collector’s Nook bridges the gap between the extraordinary and the accessible. |
