“I made this jar for Cash”: The Long History of Ceramics

June 26 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free
From ancient times to the present, pottery and porcelain objects have been essential functional wares while many are also fine examples of art, craft, and design.  Drawing on his experiences with the collections at the Yale University Art Gallery, Winterthur Museum, and Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Ward will examine some key trends in the long history of ceramics, focusing in particular on the Anglo-American tradition and some new avenues and opportunities for collecting and research.  In the process, he will put the collection of the Memphis Brooks Museum into an international and historical context.

Join us for this lecture in the auditorium, with Gerald Ward, on June 26th at 6p.‍
