  • 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.

    CREATIVE HEARTBEAT Jun Kaneko and six decades in the arts. by JORIE JACOBI / Photography by ATTILIO D’AGOSTINO To make one of his signature five-ton “dango” sculptures, renowned Omaha-based artist and ceramic sculptor Jun Kaneko works with thick slabs of clay that have previously been worked by hand to remove any air bubbles, melding them together using any num- ber of techniques: it could be digging his fingers into the sides and moving them back and forth to create grooves that will be seamlessly sewn together in all of the materials’ pliable splendor; it could be smoothing the clay over with a number of tools, or just his palms. “I’m not sure if I like working with my hands or not. Clay is a very challenging material—that’s what I like,” he says. Completing the thing is a chaotic feat. Working at a scale this large requires pageantry: several studio assistants, rolling wooden platforms with wheels, levers, a massive kiln— and time. It can take up to three weeks alone for the base of each piece to become dry enough to support the additional slabs of clay that come next. The finished piece looks like something only a mythical giant could complete, when in fact it was done by an SUSAN BARRETT [63] unassuming artist with wild, wispy graying hair and attend traditional school and began painting and colorful sweaters. “Creative energy is nothing special. drawing during the day instead.

  • Jun Kaneko (1942- )
    JUN KANEKO (1942- ) For over 40 years Jun Kaneko has melded his Japanese heritage with his immersion in contemporary western ceramics and his origins as a painter with his development as a ceramic artist. His larger-than-life dangos and other sculptures push at the limits of what it is possible to do with clay and serve as canvases for his surface designs. “I find it difficult to leave the surface of my sculpture as it is. I almost always have a need to paint on it….When I can hear what a form has to say, I start seeing marks and colors on the surface.”1 Recently he has begun working with glass and even ventured into set and costume design. Kaneko continues to work in the studio compound he established in Omaha, NE, and is planning to construct a museum on the property in the future. 1. Kaneko, Jun. “On Being an Artist: A Ceramics Monthly Portfolio.” Ceramics Monthly 36 (June/July 1988) ARTIST’S STATEMENT – JUN KANEKO “I like pieces that I have to look up to.”1 “To make a visual object out of any material involves two basic concerns. One is the energy to make the object; the other is craftsmanship to construct the ideas…..It is my hope, someday, that I would become as close to the material so there would be almost no distance between the material and myself. I hope to become one with the material, the feel what the material is feeling.”2 1. Jun Kaneko quoted in: Kimmelman, Michael. “Art; Giants of the Heartland." The New York Times, section 2 (January 14, 2007): 26.
