<em>Untitled</em>
lucite
58 1/4" x 11 1/8" x 3 1/2"
Vasa Mihich creates his optically complex sculptures by laminating clear industrially-made acrylic sheets between thinner colored acrylic sheets. Once polished, the geometric forms can appear to be made of solid transparent colors even though they may be up to 90% clear. Comprehending the construction can be difficult, since areas may appear transparent when in fact they are showing a reflection.

<em>Ceramic Plate with Horse and Standing Rider</em>
Ceramic with glaze
2 h. x 11 3/4" dia.
Beatrice Wood was a master ceramicist whose works, so seemingly simple, belie a rigor that few modern artists had achieved prior. She was internationally recognized for the beauty of her forms and the startling quality of her lusters. Luster, the glazed surface, is produced through the careful combination of chemicals, which are brushed onto the clay surfaces, and the firing process during which oxygen is reduced for prescribed periods of time. Wood began making ceramics at the age of 40 upon enrolling in an adult education class. She developed recipes for a myriad of lusters which look similar to ancient antique vessels. This similarity in appearance is understandable given the artists life-long interest in folk crafts and her exploration of universal shapes and forms. Historians attribute Woods daring developments in ceramics to her involvement with the Dada movement in the early 1900s, which cultivated an ironic and playful sensibility that encouraged a disavowal of prescribed ideas about art. Indeed this flamboyant artist was often referred to as the Mama of Dada and counted artists such as Marcel Duchamp as good friends. And like Duchamps porcelain urinal, Fountain, Woods works claimed an irrepressible sense of freedom that looked towards the progressive in art.

<em>Vase</em>
terracotta, blue glaze
5 1/2 x 7 1/2" dia.
Beatrice Wood was a master ceramicist whose works, so seemingly simple, belie a rigor that few modern artists had achieved prior. She was internationally recognized for the beauty of her forms and the startling quality of her lusters. Luster, the glazed surface, is produced through the careful combination of chemicals, which are brushed onto the clay surfaces, and the firing process during which oxygen is reduced for prescribed periods of time. Wood began making ceramics at the age of 40 upon enrolling in an adult education class. She developed recipes for a myriad of lusters which look similar to ancient antique vessels. This similarity in appearance is understandable given the artists life-long interest in folk crafts and her exploration of universal shapes and forms. Historians attribute Woods daring developments in ceramics to her involvement with the Dada movement in the early 1900s, which cultivated an ironic and playful sensibility that encouraged a disavowal of prescribed ideas about art. Indeed this flamboyant artist was often referred to as the Mama of Dada and counted artists such as Marcel Duchamp as good friends. And like Duchamps porcelain urinal, Fountain, Woods works claimed an irrepressible sense of freedom that looked towards the progressive in art

<em>Risen</em>
2007
Paint, spray paint and collage on canvas
49 x 36 1/2" FRAMED
An ambiguous formal study, Brenna Youngbloods Risen approaches pure abstraction. The lower half of this composition is grounded by thin sheets of paper that have been molded and layered, providing the canvas with pockets of tension. A common feature of Youngbloods collage work, this wrinkly texture alludes to her hands-on approach to making art, as well as the tactile quality of her work which borders on sculpture.
