NEW WORK by ROBERT FORNELL
September 6 - October 6, 2012
Opening Reception
Thursday, September 6, 6-8 PM
Cavin-Morris Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of new work by Seattle ceramic artist, Robert Fornell. We have shown Mr. Fornell's work for a number of years, in particular his teaware and sakeware, which, while paying the respect due to traditional Japanese form and content, have always pushed the envelope in surface and style. In this small but entirely representative exhibition we will continue with some of the tea and sake sculptural forms with new variations as well as a new series of flat chargers in stark black and white that challenge the boundaries between glaze and painting. Rob Fornell's work has an immediate recognizability and a deep affinity with Asian spiritual practices. His work is known, respected and appreciated in Japan and Korea. This will be his first one-person exhibition in New York City.
For further information please contact Randall Morris, Shari Cavin, or Mimi Kano at 212 226 3768 or info@cavinmorris.com.
