Lecture | Garth Clark: Speaks about a New Art World, at MECA, Maine College of Art, Portland on October 28
The talk, Ceramics + Art, Rebooted, is a continuation of the
spirited debate Clark began recently in Copenhagen and Oslo about the
forceful entry of the medium into the fine arts world. Dozens of
exhibitions featuring ceramics and clay are taking place each month and a
new canon of leading artists is being chosen and established partly
from the ceramics world and partly from non-specialist fine arts
including Arlene Shechet, Johan Creten, Sterling Ruby, Theaster Gates,
Ai Weiwei, Nick Cave, Adrian Villar Rojas, Ron Nagle and others. As
Clark explains, “the role of deciding which ceramics is now indeed art
has been totally lost to the fine arts. The question is, are they doing a
better job than we did? And the answer is often (but not always) yes.
It’s an exciting new era.”
