“Craft in America” spotlights Kansas City Art Institute Ceramics Department

October 7, 2009

The Kansas City Art Institute Ceramics Department will star October 7th in a prime-time broadcast of the Peabody-Award winning PBS series, “Craft in America.” The two-hour show will air nationally on Wednesday, October 7, 2009 from 8–10 pm. The second hour of the program includes a 10-minute segment about the strength of the KCAI ceramics program and features interviews with Chair and Professor Cary Esser, Professor George Timock, and several KCAI students and alumni.

The show spotlights Cary Esser and demonstrates how she goes beyond teaching skills and techniques, preparing her students for a career in ceramics by mentoring them as they evolve from students to trained professionals. It is a credit to Cary’s influence on her students that so many of them attempt and succeed at having a career in the ceramic field.

Personally, it has been a wonderful opportunity to work with the KCAI students and teach along side Cary Esser, George Timock, Tom Binger, and Paul Donnelly. I’ll be teaching at the Kansas City Art Institute through May of 2010 as Cary’s sabbatical replacement. Look for the portion of the show where you can see some of the “Big Heads” that my students created in the Fall 2008 semester.

Critical Ceramics

February 2009

Last year at this time, I was knee deep in snow and midway through a long winter in Maine. Then, I spent the summer in Oakland, followed by a very busy fall in Kansas City. Here it is winter again, but this time, I’m surrounded by palm trees, beaches and warm days in West Palm Beach. I ride my beach cruiser (circa 1981) to and from the studio every day, where I’m producing a new body of work. Recently, I relived my Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts experience while reading a wonderful article written by my old studio mate and friend, Monica Leap. It was really nice recalling that special time when I was an artist-in-residence in Maine. Here is the link.

I’d also like to share with you an article about my students at the Kansas City Art Institute. Here is the link.
