    David Shaner – (1934 – 2002) Artist's Statement – David

    DAVID SHANER – (1934 – 2002) David Shaner is an icon in the field of American ceramic art. He was instrumental in establishing the Archie Bray Foundation as a major player in ceramics, and he continued to support the Bray after retiring as its Resident Director. His exquisitely formed vessels with their understated glazes are a reflection of the man himself, a man in harmony with his environment and at peace in himself. Shaner was also noted as a teacher, a collector, and a generous contributor to the world of ceramic art and the field of environmental protection; his gardens which he called his “spiritual work” included notable specialized collections. While David Shaner’s life was cut short by ALS, his legacy continues through the David and Ann Shaner Resident Studio Complex which opened in 2005 at the Archie Bray foundation. ARTIST’S STATEMENT – DAVID SHANER “Basically, I am doing what I want to do and have never done anything else. By competing only with myself, I am not in pursuit of the crowd. Following one’s work is a joy and a challenge. One learns to do what is in one’s soul – thus revealing the connections between life and art. Although over the years I have become deeply involved with my tools and materials, simplicity of form and process have been my greatest achievements. And while the pots have been saturated with optimism, this has not always been easy to achieve. It is with a certain resilience I carry the belief that as life is enriched, the work can answer a resounding YES!”1 1.

    At Long Last Love Press Release

    At Long Last Love: Fiber Sculpture Gets Its Due October 2014 It looks as if 2014 will be the year that contemporary fiber art finally gets the recognition and respect it deserves. For us, it kicked off at the Whitney Biennial in May which gave pride of place to Sheila Hicks’ massive cascade, Pillar of Inquiry/Supple Column. Last month saw the opening of the influential Thread Lines, at The Drawing Center in New York featuring work by 16 artists who sew, stitch and weave. Now at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, the development of ab- straction and dimensionality in fiber art from the mid-twentieth centu- ry through to the present is examined in Fiber: Sculpture 1960–present from October 1st through January 4, 2015. The exhibition features 50 works by 34 artists, who crisscross generations, nationalities, processes and aesthetics. It is accompanied by an attractive companion volume, Fiber: Sculpture 1960-present available at browngrotta.com. There are some standout works in the exhibition — we were thrilled Fiber: Sculpture 1960 — present opening photo by Tom Grotta to see Naomi Kobayashi’s Ito wa Ito (1980) and Elsi Giauque’s Spatial Element (1989), on loan from European museums, in person after ad- miring them in photographs. Anne Wilson’s Blonde is exceptional and Ritzi Jacobi and Françoise Grossen are represented by strong works, too, White Exotica (1978, created with Peter Jacobi) and Inchworm, respectively. Fiber: Sculpture 1960–present aims to create a sculp- tural dialogue, an art dialogue — not one about craft, ICA Mannion Family Senior Curator Jenelle Porter explained in an opening-night conversation with Glenn Adamson, Director, Museum of Arts and Design.

Topics in the History of Crafts. 3 hours. Selected topics in the history of crafts. Prerequisite(s): ART 1200 or 1301, 2350 and 2360, or consent of instructor. TOPIC – CRITICAL HISTORIES OF CRAFT AND ART HISTORY This course explores how history of art survey texts represent and tell us about craft—what do they have to say about craft, and how do they say it? We are equally interested in where and how these art history survey texts neglect craft. What is missing when histories of art do not include craft? Additionally, we want to think about history of craft texts. Should they include the same agents and situations we find in histories of art, such as famous makers and collectors, the rich and the royal, politics at the highest level, and economics, power, and desire? Also, is it possible to trace influence in craft as we expect to find it discussed in histories of art? What would influence explain about craft? Should a history of craft include features we don’t expect to find in histories of art? Overall, what scholarship and methods make a history of craft? These types of questions ask us to notice standards and expectations shaping knowledge in academic fields, such as art history and the history of craft.
