Pretty Not Pretty
Following the positive public response to their exhibitions in 2015 and 2016, PRETTY NOT PRETTY showcases the ceramic sculpture of three of Oregon’s most celebrated artists who work with clay and fire as principal media: Amy Fields, Brad Mildrexler and Hiroshi Ogawa. This group exhibition will take the viewing public on a journey through an exploration of beauty in ugliness, and grace in danger.
While many exhibitions generate their impact from the individual works of art that served as diverse ambassadors for the myriad forms of beauty that exist in the world, in landscape and in figuration that are generic to the Northwest art scene. This exhibition PRETTY NOT PRETTY charts a completely different set of visual experiences.
