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.

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":"5684-1132371@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 } , "6093-1133081": { "datetime_modified":"20110510T121040", "datetime_start":"20110611T110000", "datetime_end":"20110611T123000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2011-06-11", "date_end":"2011-06-11", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Storytime at the Museum", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Storytime at the Museum", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Class \/ Instruction", "event_type_id":"8", "description":"Children ages 4-7 are invited to hear a story in the galleries.
