Keep your knuckles muddy, Good Luck!
Just in case you're into that kind of thing...
Another great Galloway resource!

Images from Jason Hackett's exhibition "Out of Necessity" at the Richmond Arts Center. This is a show I'm really proud to be a part of. It's a great group of artists participating, and the VAC of Richmond has been superb to work with all-around! If you're in the area, please stop by and take a look!

Curated by Jason Hackett
"The premise of this exhibition explores clay as a contemporary art material strongly connected to its history and traditions. Recognizing the responsibility art has to question and reflect culture, Hackett presents a selection of work by artists who investigate overlapping themes of ceramics, function, art, and life. This exhibition honors six artists: Blair Clemo, Sin-Ying Ho, Mathew McConnell, Adam Shiverdecker, Linda Sikora, and Stan Welsh."
I'm pleased to announce that Linda and I are currently exhibiting work in The Clay Studio of Missoula's current exhibition, "Finger to Thumb; A Thousand Marks of Pinching Artists" curated by Lilly Zuckerman and Emily Schroeder Willis. Featured artists include: Ingrid Bathe, Katie Coughlin, Shannon Goff, Mel Griffin, Giselle Hicks, Linda Lopez, Leanne McClurg Cambric, Mikey Walsh, Emily Schroeder Willis, Lilly Zuckerman, and myself. The exhibition runs from September 6th to September 27th.

Work by Jeffrey Mongrain
"For L’Artisan Electronique, Unfold modified an open source 3d printer to
print ceramics.
On the other side of the ceramic printer, Unfold created a virtual
pottery wheel in collaboration with Tim Knapen. This pottery wheel gives
visitors a chance to ‘turn’ their own forms. At regular intervals, a
selection of these designs is printed in clay and exhibited in the
space.
In L’Artisan Electronique, pottery, one of the oldest artisanal
techniques for making utilitarian objects, is combined with new digital
techniques. The virtual pottery wheel was realsied by means of a
3D-scanner and digital design software. However, the installation still
clearly refers to the artisanal process of working in clay. The printing
process imitates the traditional technique used by ceramicists, in
which the form is built up by stacking coils of clay.
L’Artisan Electronique is an installation commissioned by Z33 Art Centre
for the exhibition Design by Performance and developed in collaboration
with Tim Knapen and the RepRap community.

While 3D printing has been in development for years (see BGSU's project under Greg Pugh and John Balistreri), Jonathan Keep has been demonstrating how the average artist can use and adapt these technologies for the small studio. His solutions are very hands-on, very "crafted," and very well conceptualized. His blog and portfolio is worth a look. Click on the image to link:
A nice profile of Edmund de Waal, who will soon be showing at Gagosian.
New Work by Tom Lauerman and Fabio Fernandez. I was lucky enough to have shown with these guys last year. The humble little pieces these two make together always somehow seem to be just right. I'm anxious to see the new work!
