movie day: Treasures of Chinese Porcelain
In
November 2010, a Chinese vase unearthed in a suburban semi in Pinner
sold at auction for £43 million – a new record for a Chinese work of
art. Why are Chinese vases so famous and so expensive? The answer lies
in the European obsession with Chinese porcelain that began in the 16th
century.

Upcoming workshops at the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts
three-day workshop will explore historic and personal approaches to the
vessel. Participants will create small vessel forms, along with
two-dimensional studies, that marry historic exploration and
self-expression. The workshop will culminate in a raku-firing of the
vessels, which the participants will in turn take home with them.
three-day workshop will involve various approaches to working with
natural and man-made materials to promote awareness of the relationship
between the earth and civilization. The work of diverse individuals,
including Marcel Duchamp, Nader Khalili, Edward Kienholz, Robert
Rauschenberg, Andy Goldsworthy, Kurt Schwitters, Joseph Cornell, James
Turrell, Robert Smithson and others will be explored. Selected works
will be presented in an exhibition at the Center in 2014.
The workshop at the Center will share Newsome’s experience with this
project and explore Neolithic pre-pottery figurines (5,000.00-3,000.00
BC) as a metaphor and point of departure for clay sculpture.
