CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.- The Art Institute of Chicago presents East Asian Ceramics: Then and Now, on view through November 6, 2005. Contemporary ceramic artists in East Asia continually draw upon their cultures' highly developed traditions. An artist may use a glaze that became popular centuries earlier or experiment with a traditional glaze by changing the resulting color. Contemporary artists also quote wares of the past through form and technique. In this exhibition featuring works from China, Korea, and Japan, pairs of contemporary and premodern objects are on display. In each case, the artist of the contemporary piece consciously adopts aspects of the earlier ware while creating a thoroughly modern work of art. This exhibition is organized by the Art Institute of Chicago. The exhibition was curated by Janice Katz, assistant curator of Japanese art, and Jay Xu, Pritzker Curator of Asian Art.
