movie day: Ceramics: Post-Digital Design at AMOCA

“This modish and very chic exhibition places the work of world-famous
designer, Eva Zeisel (born in 1906), side by side with contemporary
ceramic designers such as David Pier, Heather Mae Erickson, Peter
Saenger, Shawn Spangler, Hiroe Hanazono, Mia Mulvey, Karen Swyler, Marek
Cecula, Klein Reid and many others who favor a minimalist aesthetic,
producing clean, simplistic forms, organic curves and orderly
compositions that reference nature by design.”

C’est sans détours
que Laure Gonthier nous dévoile toute l’ambiguïté de la matière. Charnelle et
sensuelle, elle nous livre à nos croyances et nos fantasmes, L.G nous invite
« à la métaphore », nous incite «  au toucher »  et nous rassure dans la lecture d’un  érotisme « chic »
