Gallery will host an important cross-cultural
exhibition entitled Fertile Earth: Islamic
Influences in Contemporary Ceramics.
The
show is part of the National Council on
Education in the Ceramic Arts (NCECA) annual
conference (March 16-19) in Baltimore/Washington,
DC. Each
year NCECA brings thousands of artists and
ceramic connoisseurs to the host region,
and high quality exhibitions are planned
accordingly. The
nine artists in Fertile Earth use the decoration
and techniques from the rich artistic heritage
of the Islamic World to demonstrate how
contemporary artists are keeping ancient
styles and methods alive. These sculptors
are among the most lauded in the world of
ceramic art. |
