Artist Conversation: Tony Marsh, Jiha Moon, Tia Pulitzer and Matt Wedel (2020)

Leave a Comment / Tony Marsh /

Each working with clay, but varied in approach, the artists discussed the role ceramics play in their practice and the necessity to work within this medium as part of their artistic output — from Tony Marsh's elemental use of glazing and forms, Jiha Moon's contemporary take on traditional vessels, Matt Wedel's larger-than-life constructions, and the elegant realism of works by Tia Pulitzer.

Coordinated in conjunction with the exhibition "45 at 45: L.A. Louver Celebrates 45 Years with 45 Artists," on view October 20, 2020–January 16, 2021. More details here:
