«Betty Woodman, the ceramicist and sculptor who died at age 87, waited a long time for her first U.S. retrospective.
The moment finally came in 2006 when The Met opened The Art of Betty Woodman with around 70 works of art.
The Museum was an ideal venue, one critic wrote in the New York Times, and "a first for the Met, a collector of pots from all ages that has until now never given a solo retrospective to a living maker of them.
" Woodman even made five works on the occasion of the exhibition: a set of urns made to present flowers in the Museum's Great Hall.»
Made by the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the opening of the exhibition.
Dimension: 15.5 x 67.5 inches. See less
