THE MUSEUM OF ARTS AND DESIGN – NEW YORK
24 SEPTEMBER 2013 – 2 MARCH 2014
Body & Soul underscores the power of the figure to convey strong emotions, and the versatility of ceramics as a medium for artistic expression through works that address societal, political, and personal views.
The exhibition features the work of 24 international ceramic artists, including several who are being shown in New York for the first time. Adopting the medium of clay and drawing inspiration from contemporary society and culture, each artist creates powerful, engaging, and provocative work, exploring themes that include gun violence, bullying, rebellion, sexual abuse, anxiety, and identity.
