NEW YORK, NY.- Artist and educator Tammie Rubin has joined our roster of represented artists. On the heels of her recent C24 Gallery exhibition Mythodical, with Eleen Lin, Rubin was awarded the Tito’s Prize in Austin, Texas this past April in recognition of her outstanding body of work. Her solo exhibition, I Pick Up My Life is currently on view through November 12th at Galleri Urbane in Dallas. The show includes her signature ceramic work along with pen and ink drawings and multi-media installations.




Rubin’s artwork transforms familiar objects into mythic sculptures and installations that explore the gaps between the readymade and the handcrafted object, opening up dream-like spaces of unexpected associations and dislocations. Her ceramic pieces created from slip cast porcelain over everyday objects result in otherworldly constructions that range from the sacred to the whimsical. Her work in Big Medium’s Pylon Project (currently on view through December) references Underground Railroad quilt patterns used by enslaved Black Americans recovering their freedom. Rubin’s body of work references the signs and symbols of African American history through a constantly evolving immersion in both process and materials.

Born and raised in Chicago and currently residing in Austin, Texas where she is an Associate Professor of Ceramics & Sculpture at St. Edward’s University, Rubin considers her roles as an artist and an educator to be inextricably linked. As an involved participant in the local arts community, she founded Black Mountain Project along with fellow Austin-based artists Adrian Aguilera and Betelhem Makonnen, and she is a member of ICOSA Collective, a non-profit cooperative gallery. Rubin is Chair of the City of Austin’s Cultural Arts Division Art in Public Places Panel (AIPP), in the city’s department dedicated to the production and promotion of public art.

Rubin received a BFA in Ceramics and Art History from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, and an MFA in Ceramics at the University of Washington in Seattle. Rubin is a recipient of grants from Cultural Arts Division Austin, Artist Trust Grants for Artist Projects Seattle, and an Artist Project Grant from the Illinois Arts Council. Her work has been featured in online and printed publications such as Artforum, The Brooklyn Rail, Art in America, Glasstire, Sightlines, fields, Conflict of Interest, Arts and Culture Texas, Ceramics: Art & Perception, and Ceramics Monthly. Rubin has discussed her work and shared her techniques through lectures and workshops at various art centers and universities.

Rubin has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions. Some recent selections include Project Row Houses, Houston, TX; the Hessel Museum of Art at Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY; The Houston Center for Contemporary Craft, Houston, TX; Women & Their Work Gallery, Austin, TX; Sarah M. Hurt Gallery at the Indianapolis Art Center, Indianapolis, IN; Rockford Art Museum, Rockford, IL; and The Carver Museum, Austin, TX.
