Recent Fires: Contemporary Amercian Ceramics
Philip Rawson
This show illustrates something of the depth and range of American ceramics since World War II. It includes both very well-known and less well-known names. As most of the pieces are vessels of one kind or another (with a few oustanding exceptions) it expressly refers us to the roots of the ceramic art in handling clay by throw-potting. Many pieces in fact embody in their imagery the axially centered container. There are also some of those charmingly ironic and brightly glazed confections which have become very popular in recent years, partly for their hi-tech look. But this show is not about passing fashion, rather about fundamental quality.

Tea Bowl: Imperfect Harmony
Gretchen Mehring
Exhibition catalog for Tea Bowl: Imperfect Harmony, a traveling exhibition. "These tea bowls, with their intimate scale and individual personalities, simultaneously offer an appreciation of the past and the contemporary. The subtle beauty of traditional-style bowls contrasts with the more exuberant contemporary idiom, raising an awareness of the role that art has, and can play, in everyday life. As we approach the millennium in an age of mass production, consumption, and get-it-to-go attitudes, the words of Kakuzo Okakura are still relevant, "Do we not need the tea room more than ever?"

The Allure of Illusionism: Trompe L'oeil in Contemporary American Painting
Steven W. Rosen and Rose M. Milovich
The creators of trompe l'oeil works, whether drawings, paintings, or three-dimensional objects are less concerned with replicating reality using pictorial devices such as perspective, and instead concentrate their efforts on precisely rendering the richness of the material world. The object then goes beyond a work of art and becomes a carefully defined artifact which frces the eyse to contront its absolute reality.
