The Center for Southern Craft & Design presents its 17th annual juried exhibition, Art of the Cup. Since its launch, the exhibition has featured over 1,100 cups and teapots created by world-class Southern ceramicists. To celebrate 17 years, Art of the Cup 2024 will be juried by ceramicist Rachel DePauw and exhibited in Ogden Museum Store’s Center for Southern Craft & Design, with the cups and teapots available for purchase.
Ogden Museum’s Center for Southern Craft and Design is proud to spotlight ceramist, Lily Fein. Fein says, “Clay excites me for its immediate and direct response to touch as I coil and pinch layers of porcelain to create pieces imbued with the intimacy of the finger-marked surface. The objects I create use the vessel as a metaphor for the body, sometimes inverting and challenging the distinction between the interior or exterior.” The Center for Southern Craft and Design in the Museum Store will spotlight Fein and her ceramics in our artist spotlight from April 1 to May 31 as one of the South’s master folk artists.
A master palmetto basket weaver and cultural preservationist of the United Houma Nation, Janie Verret Luster is widely recognized for her coiled half-hitch baskets, made using an intricate weaving technique lost to the Houma for a generation.
