ART Talks presents... Allison McGowan - Visiting Artist


October 27 through October 28, 2004

Where: Fine Arts Center - Ceramics Studio

Allison Mcgowan, Ceramics artist, Phoenixville, PA, will show/discuss recent work
6pm, Room 1101 Fine Art Center Allison Mcgowan is fascinated by the challenge of creating hand built porcelain forms using texture, volume, and structure. Nature constantly inspires her to arrive at new forms and structures with different volumes and textures. Repetitive grooves on an orange or the petals on a flower provide ideas for the details on the surface of her clay work and the process of sewing has given her a new approach to form and volume. In clay she tailors (cuts, darts, alters, and mends) to maximize the volume while keeping form relatively simple. The Art Nouveau style of uniting nature and structure adds ideas for the basic form and function of her pieces. Her desire is not only to create forms which please the eye, but ones that incorporate the elements of volume, texture, and structure to please the hand, the mouth, and the table. (co-sponsored by the School of Art, the Ceramics Club and the Medici Circle) The BGSU Student Ceramics Organization is proud to announce its first 2004-2005 visiting artist. Allison McGowan will be demonstrating her slab-built functional pottery in the BGSU Ceramics Studio Wednesday, October 27th and Thursday, October 28th. Allison, a graduate of Alfred University (MFA 2001) and Virginia Commonwealth University (BFA 1995), is a studio artist in Pheonixville, PA and teaches at Immaculata University and Chester Springs Studio. She has been a resident artist at The Archie Bray Foundation, Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts, and The Clay Studio. Allison will demostrate her working process during the day and will show slides of her work the night of the 27th. This event is free and open to the public. Funding provided by the Student Ceramics Organization. For more information, call (419) 372-3836.
