Belger Arts, Kansas City, MO
at Belger Crane Yard Studio
September 26- February 8, 2020
Rae Stern: In Fugue features new, groundbreaking works in porcelain and paper. On view September 26, 2019 – February 8, 2020 at the Belger Crane Yard Studios, the exhibition focuses on the elusive and ephemeral nature of memory as both a personal and universal phenomenon. Through the manipulation of translucent attributes of porcelain and paper, and with innovative use of digital technology, the works pose questions about the relationship between object, memory, and time.
Part of a recent body of work by Stern, the porcelain objects light up from within upon touch and expose hidden lithophanes.
By creating an immersive experience and inviting the viewers to touch the ceramic objects, the work brings to life narratives and memories assigned to porcelain heirlooms and explores the potential and limitations of porcelain as a repository for fading memories.
The exhibition is supported by Belger Arts, Dick and Evelyn Belger, Asylum Arts, Joan and Steve Israelite and Irene Bettinger.
*RAE STERN: IN FUGUE IS AVAILABLE FOR EXHIBITION.
