- Richard Hirsch Ceramic Mortar and Pestle Sculpture #30, 2009By Richard A. HirschLocated in New York, NYContemporary American ceramic artist Richard Hirsch's Mortar and Pestle Sculpture #30 was assembled in 2009. It's wheel thrown and hand built clay, slips and glazes with raku patinas. The following is an excerpt from the book "With Fire: Richard Hirsch, A Life Between Chance and Design" written by Scott Meyer; "The glass "masher" is lightly sand-blasted, suggesting opacity but yielding subtle light penetration, the perfect foil for Hirsch’s heavy clay concavities. Conceptually, Hirsch enjoys the compatibility of the two heat-driven materials, and the alchemical issues with shared chemistry seems right for themes involving vessels and raw geologic age." This four piece sculpture is signed and dated by the artist. It will ship directly from the artist’s studio in Rochester, NY. (Literature: "With Fire: Richard Hirsch, A Life Between Chance and Design", Scott Meyer (Author), RIT Cary Graphic Arts Press 2012 - "Mortars and Pestles" pgs. 57 - 60.
