Clay attracts artists who respond to its physicalitya hugely malleable, fluid material that through fire becomes fixed. The artists in this exhibition celebrate this contradictionhonoring the tension between the opposing forces of stability and instability, motion and stasis, permanence and temporality. Drawing, exploding, elongating, puncturing, these artists extend the boundaries of what clay can do and how it has traditionally been presented. They also employ other mediums and materials to exercise their artistic muscles.
The exhibition Defying Gravity Interventions in Clay is on view at The Center, Ketchum July 10September 18, 2015 Featuring: Alwyn OBrien Annabeth Rosen Linda Lopez William OBrien
