Richard Saltoun Gallery presents an all-women group show bringing together ceramics by 11 contemporary artists, from pioneers of the medium to young artists who keep pushing it forward.

About

The exhibition features a bespoke display designed by architect Lisa Chan, founder of London-based creative studio It’s a Local Collective, which will transform the gallery in an earthen landscape striking a dialogue between art and architecture. The display is realised with the support of Malin + Goetz.

To accompany the exhibition, Chan and Chinese contemporary artist Yushi Li will deliver an educational programme of talks and events in collaboration with the Architectural Association, where they are both tutors. The aim is to explore possibilities and responsibilities of architectural practice while making the research process more accessible and inclusive.

From Rose English’s colourful porcelain dancers and Judy Chicago’s erotic cookies to Florence Peake’s materic sculptures and Shelagh Wakely’s delicate unfired clay installations, Ceramics is a celebration of the endless possibilities offered by this medium and how it can be shaped into radically different forms by the artists’ unique sensibilities.
