NOVEMBER LECTURE BACKGROUND: CERAMIC SCULPTURE Most fired clay is at least nominally “useful.” Even when a vase is expensively made and delicate, its umpteenth-great grandparent was a plain storage jar. Clay is sometimes used for pure representation—that is, sculpture—because it is malleable, and especially because it can be cast as multiples. Other than porcelain, ceramics are also relatively cheap to produce. Ancient Greece, for example, used molded terracotta as architectural decoration, as cult statues, and as small objects that may have been purely decorative. For a few hundred years starting in the late 4th century BCE, the city of Tanagra, northwest of Athens, mass produced cast figures that were found in huge numbers in local graves and were widely exported as well. The figures were coated in white slip before firing and some were then cold-painted in naturalistic colors. Many examples show the dynamic poses of Late-Classical and Hellenistic monumental sculpture. The figures used contemporary clothing and hairstyles, and the subjects may include both theater characters and votives. Greece, c. 350-250 BCE Standing Draped Figure (Venus?) Terracotta, height 26 cm. San Francisco, Palace of the Legion of Honor In the 1440s, the Florentine sculptor Luca Della Robbia developed glazes that made ceramic sculpture both colorful and weather- resistant. The breakthrough showed that multiples could, potentially, equal the artistry of Luca’s renowned work in marble and bronze. Luca Della Robbia (1399/1400-1482) Madonna and Child (detail), c. 1460 Glazed terracotta with painted and gilded details New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art There are fine terracotta and maiolica figures and groups after Luca Della Robbia’s, but European ceramic sculpture blossomed in the 18th century, with soft-paste porcelain in France and hard-paste porcelain in Germany. Johann Joachim Kändler was the dominant sculptor at Meissen. In the 1730s, he more or less invented the genre of porcelain figures as ornaments. His characters range from courtly to gross, but they are always dynamic. Painting was a separate department, and the treatments vary enormously. Harlequin’s mask is bi-colored in the V&A’s example at right, mustachioed in another pull at the V&A, and solid black in the pull at the Met. All three pulls have different color schemes; this one is the boldest and most complex. Johann Joachim Kändler (1706-75) Meissen Porcelain Factory Harlequin with a Tankard, c. 1738-40 Porcelain with enamels and gilding, height 16.3 cm Photo © The Victoria and Albert Museum The subtlety of Nymphenburg’s porcelain body surpassed even Meissen’s. Franz Anton Bustelli, Nymphenburg’s lead sculptor, exploited the material with highly refined detailing and expression. The new emphasis may reflect a new function, as well as the general shift from late- baroque to rococo styles. Kändler’s figures and figure groups of the 1730s and 1740s were made to include in lavish dining-table settings. This use had disappeared by mid-century, when porcelain figures began to serve as individual ornaments throughout elite living spaces. Franz Anton Bustelli (1720-67) Nymphenburg Porcelain Factory, Munich Harlequina, c. 1763 Porcelain with enamels, height 20.3 cm New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art Ceramic sculpture as a modern studio art arguably started with Paul Gauguin. He grew up with his great-uncle’s collection of Moche ceramics from Peru, and then he studied French folk pottery along with other popular arts. With technical help from the ceramist Ernest Chaplet, he adapted practical shapes such as mugs to purely expressive design. He regarded the treatments as deliberately awkward—folky—including the choice of stoneware as the body, though now we may see them as complex and sophisticated. Peter Voulkos, 1924-2002 Tientos, 1959 Clay with iron glazes, height 139.7 cm San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Paul Gauguin (1848-1903), possibly with Ernest Chaplet (1835-1909) Portrait Vase of Mme. Schuffenecker, c. 1889-90 Glazed stoneware, height 23.654 cm. Dallas Museum of Art In the late 1950s, ceramists in California moved from ironized pottery shapes to either pure abstraction, as with Peter Voulkos, or to representational sculpture, as with Ralph Arneson. Voulkos’s tall “Stacks” include parts that suggest pottery, but overall they parallel mid- century abstraction in recognized sculptural media such as wood or bronze. Arneson’s work may have seemed less avant-garde at the time, but in hindsight it was more radical. Like Bay Area figurative painting, it encouraged a return to the interplay of overt subject matter with inventive technique. Ceramic sculpture now ranges through politics, social issues, and intimate personal experience, like art in general.

Hall Collection A small wooden Crucifixion group from around 1500 was the inspiration for this life-size abstraction. Feinstein has a deep interest in the high European craft of medieval Germany, but her multipart composition was roughly cut with a jigsaw from sheets of plywood. Its hand-hewn materiality reflects the urgency of its time; this was the first piece she made and exhibited after the September 11 terrorist attack, which she witnessed from her downtown New York apartment.

Courtesy of the artist and Gagosian Gallery This sculpture is based on a drawing by the artist’s son, Francis Currin, made when he was ten years old. Like many of Feinstein’s works, Mr. Time leaves traces of its dramatic transformation from a small pencil drawing to a human- scale, three-dimensional metal object.

DATE OF APPROVAL: …………………………. 2 © Pelin Güre 2010 All Rights Reserved 3 ABSTRACT Body in Transition: Cut This Fat off of Me! Research on the Visual History of the Body Image and an Attempt to Deconstruct the Hatred in Society Towards Fat Pelin Güre M.A., Visual Arts and Visual Communication Design Thesis Advisor: Assoc. Prof. Lanfranco Aceti Summer 2010 This study aims to investigate the issues of fat and obesity and analyze how one perceives his/her body image and how corpulence is perceived in the society. It discusses the changes on the representations of the body and how these changes reflect/affect different socially constructed body perceptions by looking at different images of the body from pre-historic times to modernity. Since my interest to research in such an area is based on my long term problematic relationship with obesity, the study first focuses on how do fat people understand and conceptualize their corporeal experiences. Traditional studies approach the issue of fat using either pathological discourses, which treat fatness as a disease, or psychosomatic discourses, which treat fatness as a symptom of a psychological disorder by recognizing corpulence as a medical or social problem.

  • Gagosian Gallery in Los Angeles, Where It’S on View Through February 17
    Architectural Digest January 11, 2018 GAGOSIAN Rachel Feinstein's Latest Work Is A Dream Come True In November 2000, sculptor Rachel Feinstein began a journey that changed her art—and her life Shax Riegler Rachel Feinstein in Nymphenburg with the piece called Ottavio after it emerged from its first firing in the kiln. Like a character in a fairy tale, during a 2000 trip artist Rachel Feinstein fell under the spell of Bavaria’s picturesque towns, sublime landscapes, fantastical castles, and rococo churches. Further enchantment ensued in Munich at Nymphenburg, the legendary porcelain factory on the grounds of the royal family’s once- upon-a-time summer palace. There she succumbed to her own maladie de porcelaine, the fabled “porcelain sickness” that possessed so many aesthetes in the 18th century. Feinstein, whose work has included architectural stage flats, period room–inspired installations, and immersive environments, found herself drawn to the exuberant figurines modeled by Franz Anton Bustelli in the 1750s. But rather than the graceful, colorful characters themselves, the swelling, curvaceous pedestals upon which they stood were what moved her. The artist working at Nymphenburg. She shapes a pair of shoes alongside one of Franz Anton Bustelli’s commedia dell’arte figures, which inspired the project. Ottavio, glazed and awaiting shipment to the Gagosian Gallery in Los Angeles, where it’s on view through February 17. “What’s so fabulous is how one curve gives into another,” notes Feinstein, who envisioned replicating Bustelli’s organic forms at life size. “They practically killed me, because every time I would get something perfect from one side, I’d go to the other side and find it didn’t look right and have to fix the whole thing.
