This exhibition focuses on five artists with well established reputations in Korea, whose visually stunning ceramic objects acknowledge and engage with Korean clay traditions yet embody innovative, unexpected art making and conceptual approaches. Life in Ceramics brings together for the first time the work of Kim Yikyung, Lee In Chin, Lee Kang Hyo, Lee Young-jae, and Yoon Kwang-cho. These contemporary ceramicists take familiar, everyday forms such as bowls and vases as a starting point from which to explore the astonishing beauty of these shapes as works of art. Each produces work grounded in Korea\u2019s ancient ceramic traditions, but takes it in new and often surprising directions. Objects from each artist\u2019s everyday ware collection will also be shown, so that visitors can examine how each artist makes the distinction between fine art and functional design.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5683-1132337@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5683", "building_id":"1000151", "building_name":"Museum of Art", "campus_maps_id":"11", "room":"", "location_name":"Museum of Art", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["museum","visual arts"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)", "group_id":"1177", "website":"http:\/\/www.umma.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":76, "first_occurrence":1132281 } , "5684-1132357": { "datetime_modified":"20110315T153154", "datetime_start":"20110528T100000", "datetime_end":"20110528T170000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2011-05-28", "date_end":"2011-05-28", "time_start":"10:00:00", "time_end":"17:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"UMMA Projects: Amalia Pica", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"UMMA Projects: Amalia Pica", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"Motivated by a desire for civic participation, Amalia Pica's work often takes the form of temporary interventions on buildings, monuments, or objects, documenting the artist's insertion of her own body into the landscape or her subtle alteration of it. The London-based Argentinian artist (b. 1978) works primarily with sculpture, photography, film, and installation, adopting a conceptual approach marked by wit and a sense of play. Perception, time, memory, and a sense of how particular gestures read in different cultural contexts are central to Pica's work, alternately highlighting moments of connection and disjunction. The promise - as well as the uncertainty - of communication is a persistent concern in Pica's oeuvre. Megaphones, antennae, podiums, and signal flags are recurring motifs, though rarely are these devices shown in a moment of use. Depicted at rest or disconnected from their functionality, they become figures for potential communication, carriers of a message that always remains hypothetical.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5684-1132357@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5684", "building_id":"1000151", "building_name":"Museum of Art", "campus_maps_id":"11", "room":"Project Gallery", "location_name":"Museum of Art", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["museum","visual arts"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)", "group_id":"1177", "website":"http:\/\/www.umma.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":114, "first_occurrence":1132357 } , "5845-1132769": { "datetime_modified":"20110331T153146", "datetime_start":"20110528T130000", "datetime_end":"20110528T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2011-05-28", "date_end":"2011-05-28", "time_start":"13:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Art and Ritual--UMMA's African Collection", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Art and Ritual--UMMA's African Collection", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Instructor: Christina Burch \r\nAdvance registration required.
