Ceramics Now: The Faenza Price
Research Fellow Katrine Køster Holst has been invited to the Faenza Price. A special exhibition, curated by international curators, showing contemporary ceramic sculpture.
17 curators have selected 55 famous artists from all over the world in order to have a wide and complete vision of the ceramic art situation today. Not only sculptures but also installations and performances will characterize this exhibition.
Holst’s research project Minerals and Natural Phenomena – methods for working with clays and other raw materials in contemporary ceramic art examines how artistic ceramic expression can be created by mimicing nature’s method and processes for shapeformations. She contributes with two ceramic slabs; Studies of strata and crack formations and a series of 14 drawings; Studies of layers in ceramic slices. Keywords for her contribution are geological faults and stratigraphy.
During its life the Faenza Prize has represented the works by great artists which determined great changes in the history of sculpture and art in general. The 60th Faenza Prize, for the first time of its history, will be a great exhibition supported by international curators responsible for selecting and inviting artists from all over the world.
From 30th June to 7th October 2018 Faenza will house the most significant ceramic art researches created both by international masters and young talents.
