Ceramics Faculty Selects: Clay from the
Permanent Collection
With nearly a century of combined experience as artists and educators
the Herberger College's ceramics faculty members Jeanne Otis, Randy Schmidt
and Kurt Weiser have selected 36 art works drawn from the permanent collection
at the ASU Art Museum's Ceramics Research Center. The selected objects
demonstrate the full range of technique and stylistic possibilities within
the ceramic field, from historical work to wheel-thrown functional pottery
to avant-garde sculpture.
Artists in the Exhibition
Artists represented in the exhibition include Robert Arneson, Rudy Autio,
Ruth Duckworth, Maria Martinez, David Shaner, Toshiko Takaezu, Peter Voulkos
and Betty Woodman. Each faculty member will have one of their own pieces
on exhibit to illustrate their personal work.
