Résumé : |
Mark Del Vecchio has been a leading figure promoting scholarship in ceramics for twenty years. He was co-chair of the organizing committee for the 1999 Ceramic Millennium Leadership Congress in Amsterdam and is a founding director and partner in the Garth Clark Gallery, New York. In 1999 he received the Visionaries Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Craft Museum.
Postmodern Ceramics provides a stunning international overview of the richness and diversity of ceramic art since c. 1980. Mark Del Vecchio surveys the achievement of over 130 masters of contemporary ceramics from more than twenty-five countries, among them Ralph Bacerra, Adrian Saxe, Betty Woodman, Akio Takamori, and Andrew Lord, analyzing their various approaches by presenting the work in twelve themes: the postmodern look; post-minimalism; pattern and decoration; the multiple vessel; organic abstraction; the real/super-real; histoire, culture, and time; the image and the vessel; the vessel as image; figural sculpture; abstract sculpture; and post-industrialism.
Garth Clark, perhaps the best known ceramic historian in the world, shows in his Introduction how this great burst of creative energy and innovation provided an escape route from the unconsummated, antagonistic, and demoralizing relationship that had existed between ceramics and modernism.
Complete with illustrated biographies of each of the artists and a detailed bibliography, the book brims with colorful ceramics and provides the depth of information necessary for it to become the standard reference work for professionals and amateurs, makers, and collectors. |
