Ima Hogg Ceramic Circle

As artists, we build on the history of our medium. Sometimes there is
a reverent homage to the past, and other times the connection is a
"stretch". However, we are constantly influenced by our current
surroundings juxtaposed to historical references. With reference to
the extensive ceramics collection at the MFAH , I will discuss
a few currently producing ceramic artists who are infusing imagery of
historical ceramics into a new direction based on their cultural
backgrounds. Do the past and the present merge or collide? See what
you think.
