| Tóm tắt: | "Surviving ceramic vessels buried in tombs, caves, and the earth around the world testify to the earliest human creative activity. By studying ceramics historians uncover the complex ways that societies organized and sustained themselves, as well as how they interacted with other cultures. Today the ceramic arts remain a vibrant artistic medium, as contemporary artists engage with this material history to sustain their own heritage practices, while also shaping new histories from clay. From pre-Columbian Andean tombs to contemporary African sculpture, Ceramic Art considers ceramics as an artistic medium that uniquely records and expresses our individual and collective worlds across cultures. With an introduction and conclusion written by Sequoia Miller, the chief curator at the Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art in Toronto and a practicing ceramic artist, this volume features three main essays. The first, by art historian Margaret Graves, provides an overview of different ceramic histories and the ways regional and global circulation have impacted them; the second, by conservator Victoria Parry, focuses on the challenges of preserving these artworks and artifacts; and the third, by studio potter Magdalene Odundo, examines the art form from the point of view of the contemporary practitioner. These essays are followed by three case studies, organized chronologically from ancient to contemporary, and spanning centuries and continents in range, that put objects in conversation with one another in innovative, cross-disciplinary ways. Ceramic Art is the inaugural title in our new series ART/WORK. Responding to the latest trends in the field, the ART/WORK series provides innovative narratives that change how art history as a discipline is imagined"-- |
