Michele Oka Doner Stoneware Figurines Female Torso w/Legs Phallic Shaped Spear
By Michele Oka Doner
Located in Bloomfield Hills, MI
Two Untitled pieces made of ceramic with black matt markings are exquisite and purely Michele Oka Doner works. On September 22, 2022, Michelle Oka Doner was a lecturer at the University of Michigan's Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series in which she showed images of this very set remarking that this "was my favorite set of pieces" and she wished she still had them. The warm creamy color of the unglazed ceramic contrasts with the back matt markings of incised linear designs that identify Ms. Oka Doner's artistic sculptures. The one form can be seen as female because of the slightly bulging breasts, hips and thighs reminiscent of the most ancient pieces of sculpture in existence - the venius forms - most of which lack, like Oka Doner's, a head, or feet, or arms. The companion piece, a long phallic shaped form, is also reminiscent of the most basic shape to identify the male - the penis. The female form measures 17 x 5 x 3 and the male form measures 21 x 3 x 3.
Michele Oka Doner (born in Miami Beach, Florida, United States) is an American artist and author who works in a variety of media including sculpture, prints, drawings, functional objects and video. She has also worked in costume and set design and has created over 40 public and private permanent art installations. She is best known for her “A Walk On The Beach,” a one and a quarter mile long bronze and terrazzo concourse at Miami International Airport. It is composed of over 9000 bronzes embedded in terrazzo with mother-of-pearl. At one and quarter linear miles, it is one of the largest artworks in the world.
She is granddaughter of painter, Samuel Heller. She attended the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her art instructor Milton Cohen was experimenting with The Space Theater and George Manupelli...
