WHERE: Workhouse Arts Center
TITLE: “Drink This!” Workhouse International Ceramic Cup Show
WHEN: On view Wednesday, January 8, through Sunday, February 2, 2014.
BRIEF ABOUT: An exhibition of 71 works, were selected from hundreds of entries from ten countries, from the elegant, ceremonial tumbler to the comfortable simple mug.
Juried by ceramic artist and professor Sam Chung, the show offers a surprising sample of the many ways contemporary artists interpret the cup in this show. “There were cups that told a story that transcended the object itself,” Chung said, “while others created an innate craving for a drink that fit the cup’s character. These were the cups that pushed me over the edge.”
