Description: | Select Guide Rating This exhibition catalogue on one of the art world's leading ceramicists will appeal to both fans of his minimalist ceramics as well as fans of his bestselling memoir The Hare with the Amber Eyes. Edmund de Waal’s art speaks to his enduring fascination with the nature of objects and the attendant history of their collection and display. Confronting European and Asian traditions of intimate craftsmanship with the scale and sequence of minimalist art and music, Edmund de Waal’s ensembles of porcelain vessels evoke at once the delicate measure of Agnes Martin’s sublime abstract paintings and the rhythmic pulses of the music of Philip Glass and Steve Reich. |
