Richard Hirsch Ceramic Mortar and Pestle, 2007
By Richard A. Hirsch
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary American ceramic artist Richard Hirsch's Mortar and Glass Pestle #27 is raku-fired, hand built and hand sculptured. This piece is made of three separate pieces of green rust patinaed wood fired stoneware. "In his process, Hirsch is a reducer, endlessly honing and refining his forms to their simplest and most powerful presence. It is the same “less is more” aesthetic evidenced by the work of Noguchi, Brancusi, and Giacometti, artists he holds in greatest esteem. His content is principally the vocabulary of form, color, and surface, subtly referencing utility while defying overt narration and cultural specificity. A mortar and pestle like this one, for example, might be discernible in a piece, but presented with such economy that it becomes only important as a stand-in for larger issues; their anima/animus relationship or as a record of human use and wear over considerable time. For Hirsch, the particular only exists for the purpose of making the universal palpable. His is a point of view similar...

Enid Bell Palanchian, Tackle, Modernist Carved Mahogany Sculpture, ca. 1953
By Enid Bell Palanchian
Located in New York, NY
DIMENSIONS height: 23 inches width; 12 inches depth: 6 inches MARKINGS Signed at the bottom in back. DETAILS Original hand-crafted black-painted wood plinth. REFERENCES Originally, sold to Papillon Gallery of Los Angeles. CONDITION Excellent antique condition, wear consistent with age and use. Enid Bell Palanchian (American, 1904 – 1994) a/k/a Mrs. E. B. Palanchian, Mrs. Enid Bell Palanchian and Mrs. Missak Palanchian was an important American sculptor, author, illustrator and professor who was primarily active in the New York/New Jersey area, but who established a respected body of work recognized throughout Europe and the United States as reflected by awards received in Paris, New Jersey, New York, New Mexico and Florida. Her achievements included numerous public works projects (e.g., the design of the Congressional Gold Medal) on display at public institutions and museums around the country, private commissions and sales throughout the world, group and solo exhibitions, generous donations of art and compilations, and the passing on of her knowledge and skills to 24 years of art students of the Newark School of Industrial and Fine Arts. Enid Bell was born in London, England, and later studied at the Glasgow School of Art and then at the St. John’s Wood Art School; as well as studying with fellow Scot Sir William Reid Dick in London. Then, after moving to the United States, she taught at the Art Student League in New York City at Miss Chapen’s School. Essentially a figurative, direct carving in wood artist, she was based in New Jersey where she became the head of the sculpture program of the Fedral Art Project for that state and was herself the creator of several FAP commissions. In 1932, she married Armenian/American businessman and artist, Missalk Palanchian athough she retained her name “Bell” for professional purposes. Following the end of the Federal Art Project in 1944, she taught as instructor of sculpture and Head of the Sculpture Department of the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Art until 1968, and was active was a member of the National Sculpture Society. Enid Bell died in 1994 in Englewood, New Jersey.

Richard Hirsch Ceramic Mortar and Glass Pestle Sculpture, 2007
By Richard A. Hirsch
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary American ceramic artist Richard Hirsch's Mortar and Glass Pestle Sculpture #1 was assembled in 2007. It's wheel thrown and hand built clay with green and black watermelon glaze, raku rust patina and hot blown glass. Two separate pieces of wood fired stoneware are assembled with a third piece -- a hot blown glass pestle. "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."

Richard Hirsch Ceramic Altar Bowl with Blown Glass Ladle #5, 2007
By Richard A. Hirsch
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary American ceramic artist Richard Hirsch's Altar bowl with blown glass ladle #5 was assembled in 2007. It's wheel thrown and hand built clay with low fire slips and glazes, black glaze, enamel polychrome paint, raku green patina and hot blown glass. In the book "With Fire: Richard Hirsch, A Life Between Chance and Design" Scott Meyer said; "As Hirsch's work progressed over the years, it would be a mistake to portray these advances as chronological. In fact, items found provocative would be added to the roster of possibility. The vessel might change in character with the deep interior space of a mortar becoming the shallow concavity of a Japanese, stone Tsubi basin or natural geode form. The corresponding implement might change from bulbous pestle to delicate ladle, alluding to the ceremonial cleansing for participants in the Tea Ceremony. In this sense, the proximity of these objects to their implied ceremonial use was similar to that which traditional Raku bowls...

Hirsch creates ceramic sculptures that explore the spirituality and ritual embedded in familiar vessel forms. He imbues his work with the look of age and antiquity by applying certain ceramic surfaces and incorporating other materials such as iron, glass, bronze, and wood. As Hirsch states in his artist statement, "Ultimately, this work is an attempt to metamorphosize the seemingly mundane vessel-object into a sacred entity." This three piece sculpture...
