Underneath Everything: Humility and Grandeur in Contemporary Ceramics
Grand Rapids Art Museum, MI
October 7, 2023 - January 14, 2024
There is an expansiveness to work made or based in clay, as artists push the limitations of the medium, attaching layers of conceptual meaning and playing with the boundaries between ceramics and other media including film, photography, painting, performance, and installation.
 
This exhibition features artworks that honor the humility of the medium while simultaneously evoking a sense of grandeur and possibility, like Ai Weiwei’s hand-painted porcelain work, Kui Hua Zi (Sunflower Seeds).
