Body & Soul
New International Ceramics
September 24, 2013 to March 2, 2014
Mad Museum NY
About the Exhibition
In recent years, the human figure has returned to center stage in the work of artists around the world. Body & Soul: New International Ceramics underscores
the power of the figure to convey strong emotions, and also to the
accessibility of the ceramic medium. Through clay the figure becomes the
catalyst for addressing the emotional impact of contemporary pressures
that confront our society today. Each work, inspired by a personal
incident or symbolic tale, expresses a deep emotional identity,
contrasting societal, political, and personal views on themes such as
anxiety, bias, mortality and memory.The exhibition will highlight approximately 25 international artists who came to clay as painters, draughtsmen, or sculptors. Many are being shown for the first time in the United States. The range and quality of the works will make this exhibition engaging and provocative, and will bring this special area of creativity into a much-deserved focus.

Exhibition highlights include:
Mounir Fatmi, (Morocco, b. 1970; lives in FR), Forget, 2010, an installation of several ceramic skulls wearing hard hats comments on the fragility of both body and brain, and the hard demands of physical labor and work.
Teresa Gironès, (SP, b. 1941), Victima [Victim] 2012, a poignant representation of a woman unable to speak out against her abuser; the raw treatment of the clay expresses the anger of the incident.
Michel Gouèry, (FR, b. 1959) Riri, Fifi, 2006, a sardonic pair of seated female bodies with no distinguishable facial features: empty vessels without identity, encased in a restrictive armor, and rendered powerless.
Elsa Sahal, (FR, b. 1975) Pieds Noirs/Black Feet, 2010, depicts the memory of bias and hostility by the French people to French immigrants from North Africa.
Kim Simonsson (Finland, b. 1974) Untitled, 2013, andCarrie II, 2009, eerie, dramatic, and forceful depictions of children, contrasting innocence with a sense of impending violence.

It is true, and not only in the States, that there is growing attention to artists working with ceramics, probably driven by the need to satisfy the physical need of a piece of art. Clay is an incredible material that requires knowledge, artistry, a good idea and a spoonful of magic.
These new artists are succeding in infusing a simple bag of greyish dough with pure spirit.
It is very exciting !
Here some good stuff to look at:

info@terredarte.net
Santo Alligo nasce nel 1948 a Roccalumera in provincia di Messina. Emigrato a Torino nel 1953 dopo aver fatto gavetta in tipografie, zincografie e dopo aver svolto svariate occupazioni, frequenta la Civica Scuola d'Arte Ceramica.
Successivamente entra nell'atelier della ceramista Anna Maria Carusi con la quale farà pratica sbozzando le grandi opere di creta destinate alla cottura. Lavora presso questo atelier dai
dodici ai diciotto anni d'età. È solo un ragazzo ma già manipola con abilità l’argilla. Entra quindi nel celebre Studio Testa nel quale elabora i propri progetti e, partendo dall'idea di Armando Testa, realizza il modello del Pippo, l'ippopotamo della pubblicità. Passa quindi, dopo otto anni trascorsi in quegli uffici, a un seconda agenzia, la Bussolino-Sitcap, nella quale approda come art director, nel 1972, e dove lavora tuttora come consulente. Sono anni intensi durante i quali continua parallelamente la sua eclettica attività di scultore e durante i quali i suoi lavori entrano in alcune collezioni private. Alligo impersona un nostrano esempio di self made man che completa e approfondisce le proprie conoscenze frequentando mostre e musei, divenendo un avido bibliofilo, collezionando a sua volta le opere di celebri illustratori e scrivendo su prestigiose testate tra le quali: "Il Sole 24 Ore", "Charta" e "Tuttolibri". Lavora tuttora alacremente alle sue sculture continuando a tessere un discorso artistico mai interrotto.

A CURA DI Daniela Gallavotti Cavallero
Annalisa Guerri CV's 6
CV: 5 Parole che descrivano le tue opere
AG: trasparenza, leggerezza, fragilità, corrosione, trasformazione.
CV: Che aspetto della tua personalità ti è più utile nel tuo lavoro?
AG: Il saper osservare.
CV: Qual'è il tuo pezzo in ceramica preferito?
AG: Il primo pezzo che ho creato, avevo 15 anni. E' una semplice mattonella con un pesce in rilievo ma la considero il simbolo della strada che ho scelto di percorrere.
CV: Da cosa trai ispirazione?
AN: La mia ispirazione viene principalmente dalle forme della natura ma anche dall'osservazione degli ambienti urbani e degli oggetti che mi circondano e dalla loro trasformazione nel tempo.
AN: La mia ispirazione viene principalmente dalle forme della natura ma anche dall'osservazione degli ambienti urbani e degli oggetti che mi circondano e dalla loro trasformazione nel tempo.
CV: Se potessi scegliere dove vivere/lavorare nel mondo, dove andresti?
AN: Ho scelto di vivere a Sulmona, una cittadina circondata dal Parco Nazionale della Majella, un posto incantevole, fonte inesauribile di ispirazione! Mi piace però poter essere libera di viaggiare e lavorare in diversi posti.
Per questo quando posso partecipo ai progetti "Artist in Residency" attivi in diversi centri internazionali.
Sono già stata in Danimarca, al Guldagergaard, International Ceramic Research Center e sarò a New Taipei City al Yingge Ceramic Art Museum a febbraio 2014.
Spero negli anni a venire di avere la possibilità di continuare a viaggiare e conoscere altri paesi e culture; credo questo sia il miglior modo per continuare a crescere in questo lavoro.

CV: Il tuo migliore e peggiore momento ceramico?
Il peggiore è ogni volta che non ottengo quel risultato sperato; oppure quando accendo il forno e a metà cottura mi rendo conto di aver lasciato fuori il pezzo più importante!
http://www.annalisaguerri.com/ceramics/home.html
CV: Five words that describe your work
AG: Transparency, lightness, fragility, corrosion, transformation
CV: What aspect of your personality is more useful in your practise?
AG: The ability to observe
CV: What is your favourite ceramic piece of all times ?
AG: The first piece that I created when I was 15 yrs old. It is a simple tile with a fish relief, but I regard it as a symbol of the road I chose to travel
CV: Where do you get your inspiration from?
AG: My inspiration comes mostly from the shapes of nature but as also from urban landscape and objects that surround me and their transformation in time
CV: If you could choose where to live/work in the world, where would you go?
AN: I chose to live in Sulmona, a village surrounded by the Majella National Park, an enchanting place, an endless source of inspiration! I like to be free to travel and work in different places.
For that reason whenever I can I apply to residencies in different international centres.
I've been in Denmark at Guldagergaard International Ceramic Research Center and I am going to New Taipei City at Yingge Ceramic Art Museum in february 2014.
I hope in the future to still have the possibility to continue travelling and to know new places and cultures, I believe this is the best way to continue growing in this job
CV: Your best and worst ceramic moment
AG: The best is when after weeks of experimenting new techninques I finally obtain what I had imagined. The worst, every time I do not obtain that wished result, or when I turn on the kiln and half way through I realise that I left out the most important piece.!
