“Containment IV: All Stars”,
our most anticipated exhibition of the year features 24 outstanding
nationally recognized ceramic artists interpreting the containment
theme. Our theme for Containment IV encompasses the the themes from the
first three years of “Containment” so artists may submit ceramic box
forms, ceramic containers with a related item inside or a ceramic piece
within a ceramic container. The possibilities are limitless! Over the
years we have encouraged participating ceramic artists to “think outside
the box” and we have always been rewarded with outstanding pieces
unique to our exhibition. Join us as we celebrate, explore and reinvent
the ceramic box!

All of these talented artists have been pursuing a career in studio
ceramics for ten years or less, and their work stands at the forefront
of what is to come in our field.

Richard Cleaver, Juror
This exhibition showcases the power of small-scale sculptural
works. Highlighting artworks no larger than 12 inches, but that possess
a much larger presence. Composed mainly of ceramic, with some mixed
media additions, these objects prove that something doesn’t have to be
huge to be monumental.
Requirements:
Artwork size is limited to 12 inches in any direction.
Use of Mixed media is allowed, but may not comprise more than 50% of the artwork.
Display possibilities include: pedestals, wall, hanging from the ceiling or as an installation.
