Ken Price Sculptures
American, 1935-2012
Ken Price (1935 - 2012) received a BFA from the University of Southern California after studying at Chouinard Art Institute, and Otis Art Institute with Peter Voulkos. He was part of the Otis group, which was instrumental in transforming clay from a craft medium into a vehicle for personal aesthetic expression. Any attempt to simply delimit Price's work in relation to art or craft, sculpture or pottery, is problematic, as his work effortlessly traverses these artificial divisions. In 1959, Price received an MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. Price’s work has appeared in countless exhibitions since his first solo installation at Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles in 1960. He has had over sixty one-person exhibitions at galleries and institutions, including L.A. Louver Gallery, Venice; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; The Menil Collection, Houston; Leo Castelli Gallery, New York; Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston; Santa Barbara Museum of Art; and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. His work has been included in many prestigious group exhibitions including Made in California, 1900-2000, Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Contemporary Ceramics, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Sunshine and Noir: Art in L.A. 1960-1997, UCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, and Louisiana Museum, Denmark; and 1981 Biennial Exhibition, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.
Price has recently had three major retrospectives- 2012 Ken Price Retrospective Fall 2012 Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA
2013 Ken Price Retrospective Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY 2013 Ken Price Retrospective Winter 2013 Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas, TXto

"RAKU RED AND WHITE", wheel formed white glaze, copper red, gold leaf, sculpture
By Andrew Cornell Robinson
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"RAKU RED AND WHITE", 2019, in wheel-formed white glaze with copper red blush, sprig, stamp, gold leaf and raku fired with kintsuji gold by artist Andrew Cornell Robinson, is one of a series of sculptural objects that include ceramic, glass and mixed media grottoes and containers. A project exploring the vessel form and notions of gratitude, plenty, poverty in material or humanity.
Robinson has led artists to explore tableware as sculptural form – "Changing attitudes and emerging social behaviors in food preparation and the social and cultural rituals of eating have lead to changes in the way tableware is made and used."
Andrew Cornell Robinson is an interdisciplinary artist working across media (ceramics, textiles, painting, prints, etc.). His work is influenced by collaborative craft communities, traditions, and the performative qualities of cultural production. The underlying ideas exploring identity, histories, rituals, and power in his work aim to create a space for intimate experiences and open narratives.
He studied ceramic sculpture at the Glasgow School of Art and the Maryland Institute College of Art where he received a BFA. He was awarded an MFA from the School of Visual Arts, where he became interested in the intersection of memory, identity, politics, and power. He has been featured in many publications including Sculpture Magazine, Huffington Post, Hyperallergic, Art Info, et al. He has participated in curatorial and research projects and recently was a participating artist in Debtfair a project in the Whitney Biennial.
Andrew has also worked on collaborations with designers such as Donna Karan’s Urban Zen project where his work in ceramics led to workshops with artisans in Haiti and the creation of a ceramic studio in Port-au-Prince. He is currently working with The Powerhouse Arts Workshop and their design team from the Pritzker-prize winning architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron in the design and development of a contemporary industrial fabrication center established to serve the working needs of artists in New York City.
He is currently a member of the faculty at Parsons School of Design and Greenwich House Pottery in New York City. His work has been presented extensively throughout the world with the Anna Kustera Gallery, David & Schweitzer Contemporary, Christopher Stout...
