Out of the Fire: Masterworks of Ceramics

Although we may think of ceramics as a material used to create functional objects like vases, bowls, plates, and mugs, in the mid-20th century, ceramics moved from a traditional craft form to a material used to create unique sculptural works of art. This exhibition features work by some of the finest ceramic artists in the U.S.–Peter Voulkos, Ruth Duckworth, Rudy Autio, Paul Soldner, Don Reitz, Otto and Vivica Heino, and others–who marked the emergence of the American Studio Ceramics Movement.
