2014 Educational Program @ Northcote Pottery Supplies
Pottery Supplies is excited to launch its 2014 Educational Program.
With a range of short courses, workshops, masterclasses, PDs and a new
School Holiday Program it looks to be a very creative year ahead.
Create
your own stylized landscape miniatures with slab construction
techniques and contour plans. Using impressed textural effects with
natural found materials you will learn how to enhance and contrast
surfaces and populate your work with the tiny forms of buildings,
people, plants or animals!
this two week course students will be introduced to basic camera theory
and learn practical photography skills. Each student will have the
opportunity to have one piece of their work photographed under the
guidance of Chris. A wonderful chance to learn the fundamentals of
documenting your own work in a straightforward manner.
Luke Syson: How I learned to stop worrying and love “useless” art
Luke Syson was a curator of Renaissance art, of transcendent paintings of saints and solemn Italian ladies — serious
art. And then he changed jobs, and inherited the Met’s collection of
ceramics — pretty, frilly, “useless” candlesticks and vases. He didn’t
like it. He didn’t get it. Until one day … (Filmed at TEDxMet.)
Luke Syson joined the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2012 as the Iris
and B. Gerald Cantor Curator in Charge of European Sculpture and
Decorative Arts. This year, he co-curated the small but innovative
exhibition “Plain or Fancy? Restraint and Exuberance in the Decorative
Arts.” Before joining the Met Syson was Curator of Italian Painting
before 1500 and Head of Research at the National Gallery, London. While
at the National Gallery, he was curator of the exhibition “Renaissance
Siena: Art for a City,” and in 2011 he organized the groundbreaking
“Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan.”
Syson was
also one of the curators who organized the acclaimed Enlightenment
Gallery at The British Museum and was part of the team that planned the
new galleries for Medieval and Renaissance Art at the Victoria &
Albert Museum.
BYRDCLIFFE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE PROGRAM
For Visual Artists, Writers, Ceramicists and Composers
The Byrdcliffe Artist in Residence program provides artists of
exceptional talent with uninterrupted time and creative space to
research and create new work. Lasting four weeks (or a possible eight
weeks for ceramic artists), residencies provide artists with private
studio space within a community of peers and the serene natural setting
of the Byrdcliffe Art Colony. Artists are invited to participate in open
studios, work-shares, communal dinners and field trips, or may spend
their residency working in the creative solitude of a private studio.
Byrdcliffe’s residencies are particularly beneficial to those who find
it restorative to live in a simple, communal environment in close
proximity to natural beauty.
Surrounded by the Catskill Mountains and just west of the Hudson
River, the Byrdcliffe Art Colony is home to over 80 artists each year,
fifty of whom are hosted by the Artist in Residence Program. Beyond the
AIR program, the Colony is comprised of more than a dozen artist
cottages, the Byrdcliffe Theater, the Byrdcliffe Barn, a tennis court
and the Mt. Guardian hiking trail, as well as the Kleinert/James Center
for the Arts which is located in the center of Woodstock. Byrdcliffe
hosts a regular schedule of artist talks, exhibitions, concerts, theater
productions and guided hikes, most of which are year-round. Public
events allow artists the opportunity to connect with the community at
large. At Byrdcliffe creative time is sacrosanct, and artists are given
free rein to decide what activities will contribute to their residency
experience. Byrdcliffe offers a unique experience in simplicity of
living amid the natural beauty of a 250 acre campus of protected fields
and woodland. At the same time, Byrdcliffe provides the opportunity to
live in a community of creative people of all ages and backgrounds who
are dedicated to honoring the creative spirit.
