About the Item

Beverly Mayeri is a studio artist living in the Bay Area with over 30 years experience as an established ceramic sculptor. She earned a BA from the University of California, Berkeley, and an MA in sculpture at San Francisco State University. Mayeri works with refined and elegant heads and figures, often using meticulously patterned details that allude to the inner life of emotions, thoughts, and human frailties. The pieces are painted in washes of acrylic paint. Mayeri’s figures “evoke a richly complicated human presence, ”and often “bridge the psychological, the political and the sensuous within one hybrid form.” Her work has been shown extensively in museums and galleries, and is included in many public and private collections. She has received 2 NEA grants and a Virginia Groot grant, and has lectured and taught many workshops throughout the U.S. Selected Public Collections Canton Art Institute, Canton, OH Contemporary Museum of Modern Art, Honolulu, HI Fuller Craft Museum, Brockton, MA High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA Long Beach Parks and Recreation, Long Beach, CA Los Angeles Arts Commission, Los Angeles, CA Los Angeles County Museum of Art, CA National Museum of History, Taipei, Taiwan Oregon College of Art and Craft, Portland, OR Racine Art Museum, Racine, WI Scripps College, Pomona, CA "The Mermaid", Contemporary, Figurative, Ceramic, Sculpture, Acrylic Paint
