Unknown Visionary Artist
Brutalist Abstract Plate Circa 1995
Handmade polychrome glazed ceramic
New York, NY
Unsigned, undated
Diameter. 13 x Depth: 1 in.
Provenance: Purchased at Mugi, New York, NY
Condition: Intentionally irregular form and surface. An aesthetic fracture that pierces through the plate is a central design feature of the work. It is important to note that it does not extend to the edges of the plate so it does not compromise the overall, general strength of the plate.
Notes on the photographs:
--The image of the back of the plate contains some gray-blue organic material at the top. This is gum eraser, which is typically used in drawing to lift graphite or charcoal from the paper and/or to create aesthetic effects. It is malleable. However, it is used here as a noninvasive material to secure the work as it leans again a wall. It removes without a trace. It was left in place to avoid replacing it in its specific position where it was useful when it would be put back in place.
--In some photographs the work is shown learning again a wall and surmounting an upside-down teapot by Maarten Baas that is functioning as an impromptu pedestal. Please note that this is not part of the work.
