Thursday this and that

On this snowy day in Philadelphia (picture at the bottom), I hope everyone’s enjoying the view out the window, if not the thought of shoveling snow off the sidewalk. Below is a roundup of some new notable projects and other newsy things from the inbox or from my occasional blog reading. Hope for Hope benefit exhibit and sale, Sunday, Jan. 30, 4-7:30pm, @The Clay Studio

First Friday in Old City

The other night I found myself in Old City for First Friday where I stopped by the 3rd Street Gallery, the Clay Studio, and the Rodger La Pelle Galleries. There were plenty of paintings, photographs, ceramics, and more to see, but here are some of the artists that caught my attention.

Made at the Clay Studio

The Clay Studio‘s current exhibition, MADE AT THE CLAY STUDIO: WORK BY GUEST ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE, 2009-2010s features traditional clay works and also work of artists pushing the medium to new places.

A conversation with Naomi Cleary

As I try to write about Naomi Cleary, so that I can introduce you to her, so that you want to read the interview that follows, I am holding one of her pots in my hand. I am holding it in my hand and I am turning it around horizontal and flipping it vertical, I am running my fingers over it’s smooth surface, I am trying to explain to you why I like it so much.
