university of cincinnati annual ceramics sale

We had our biggest ceramics sale to date - doubling our record from last year! This is the 7th year we have hosted the sale, and could not be happier with the turnout and local support. It is amazing to see how the department has shifted and changed since we started in 2008...

university of cincinnati ceramics department - best bets

Our end of the year ceramics display case - display. Mike really took this to another level (again), and it looks amazing. The work is majority intro to handbuilding and moldmaking, which is great to see such strong pieces coming out of beginning level ceramics courses.

MFA Colin Klimesh

This image from Colin Klimesh's MFA installation at the CAC does not do the work justice. I will be posting the good stuff soon. He is also in an opening at the Carnegie and Clay Street Press this Friday night, so look out Cincinnati.

porcelain OTR - UC/DAAP architecture studio

This piece was made last year in collaboration with a graduate DAAP architecture studio (of only six students) and ceramics taught by Aaron Betsky, former director of the Cincinnati Art Museum. He wrote a really nice piece about this work here for Architect Magazine. This was an insane labor of love for everyone involved, handsculpting buildings and milling the topography of Over the Rhine, the largest collection of Italianate architecture in the country.
