Richard Shaw
Corona Cigar Box with Watercolor Tray and Cold Cigar

2023

About the Item

In the world of ceramics, Richard Shaw is a professor and the master of trompe l’oeil (French for “fool the eye”) sculpture, a style often associated with paintings intended to give a convincing illusion of reality. Shaw's work replicates everyday objects (such as tin cans, playing cards, and cutlery) in porcelain. He then glazes these components and groups them in unexpected and even jarring combinations. While interested in how objects can reflect a person’s identity, Shaw also poses questions regarding the relationship between appearance and authenticity. Corona Cigar Box with Watercolor Tray and Cold Cigar, 5.75 x 10.75 x 8.5 inches, glazed porcelain with overglaze. Proudly presented by Andra Norris Gallery in CA
