Sarah House
"Fractal" - Contemporary Ceramic Crystal Sculpture

2020

About the Item

Notable New Orleans artist Sarah House's work centers around what she calls "fractals" - occurrences of order in nature, here appearing as crystal forms juxtaposed with a more amorphous, scalloped mass that looks almost as though it has been carved by surf or weather. Check out her mastery of surfaces: the lacquer-shiny facets of the "crystals" next to the abraded, matte "matrix" material. Absolutely striking and attention-getting, a real conversation piece, and sizable so it doesn't get lost on a table top or mantel. House has participated in Artist in Residence programs in Baltimore, Maine, Montana, Hungary, Taiwan, Denmark, Iceland and Chile. She is a Windgate Fellow, a Nyburg Fellow and has been recognized globally for her work, exhibiting across Europe, Asia, and North America. Sarah currently works in her New Orleans studio. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee of satisfaction.

  • Refraction (Contemporary Wood Panel Painting)
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Artist's Statement: "Around 30 years ago, not long after I had started painting seriously, I was at a one-man exhibition of the great Brice Marden at the Fort Worth Museum of Modern Art when I visited the annex to get a cocktail. There was one other guy at the small bar table in an otherwise empty room, waiting for his coffee to be handed to him. He turned and dumped half of it down my front. I immediately recognized him as none other than Brice Marden. He apologized profusely, but I stopped him and said: 'No problem: how often is it that Brice Marden dumps coffee on your pants? They're worth more now.' We both had a good laugh. At any rate - I was certainly channeling his early work when I began work on this series. They are made with oil and beeswax on wood panels...

  • Picasso Madoura Ceramic A.R. 542 Wood Owl
    By Pablo Picasso
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    Pablo Picasso A.R. 542 Wood Owl 1968 11.8” x 8.8” Edition of 500 White earthenware clay, decoration in engobes under partial brushed glaze, black patina Ramie 542 is a Madoura ceramic that one rarely sees come on the market. The photo you see here is the actual piece that you will receive. Most sellers online post using stock photos that don’t necessarily match exactly to the piece you receive. This particular piece is pristine: there are no nicks, bruises or scratches of any kind. Be careful when buying from others – the pieces sometimes have nicks or scratches. The Certificate of Authenticity comes with this piece. We have sold over 3300 pieces with all positive reviews. We are located in the USA. When you buy from a foreign seller on 1stdibs, you have to consider the problems of getting the piece through Customs. There are often delays and considerable fees to pay in order to import the item. When purchasing from us, we ship the same day and you receive it via FedEx the next day, no problems or hassles. When you purchase from an auction house, you pay a buyer’s premium of anywhere from 23% to 28% over the “hammer price”. So when you “win” an auction for $20,000, the actual price paid is more like $25,000. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price agreed to is the price paid by the buyer, no hidden fees. When you purchase from an auction house, you pay the packing and shipping fees, which are usually exorbitant. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price includes packing and shipping. When you purchase from an auction house, the sale is final. If you receive the piece and are not 100% satisfied with it, there is nothing you can do about it. You are stuck with it. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the buyer can determine if they want to keep it. If not, the buyer returns to piece to us for full refund, and we pay the shipping both ways! The prices of Picasso Madoura Ceramics have been on fire lately (no pun intended). The major auction houses – Sotheby’s, Christie’s and Phillips – have now been regularly holding Picasso Madoura Ceramic auctions...
