SUPERSCOPE! Clay 2020
February 20-April 2, 2020
Chris Dufala, Kat Hutter and Roger Lee, Kim Tucker, Nicole Seisler, Amy Santoferraro, and Bari Ziperstein
Curated by Molly Schulps
Offering a widescreen view of contemporary clay-based visual arts in California, Superscope: Clay 2020 presents seven makers whose works include manifestations of primal desire, sculptural “eye-fooling,” repurposed thrift-store finds, small batch production ceramics, and conceptual explorations of the medium and the thing. In addition to showcasing the sheer fecundity of a field that is finally receiving some big attention from the art world, Superscope also speaks to the entwined histories of art and craft and the current shape of their 500-year old rivalry, which may just provide a rescue package for the moribund world of the “fine” and the “high.”
