Contemporary Artist Research Project

Each student will be assigned 3 artists (this will be done in class on Thursday). One artist from each category. Find the link to your artist's web site bellow. You can also visit other sites if you wish.

You will choose five of the most interesting images from each artist and post them to the blog. You must also write a paragraph summary of the work (a description of their concept or process) which can include a portion of their artist statement. We will do presentations in class. In this way the class will be introduced to a range of contemporary ceramic artists and ideas. The presentations are to be brief (2 minutes max) as we want to maximize studio time.
