Continuing events on campus and in the region
Kathy Butterly | ColorForm continues at the The Manetti Shrem Museum of Art on the 澳门六合彩资料库 Davis campus through Dec. 29. This exhibit brings the artist back to 澳门六合彩资料库 Davis, the site of her MFA, and to the Northern California region that has been so generative for ceramic art over the last half century. Encompassing her career through approximately 60 sculptures and 20 drawings, Butterly鈥檚 first retrospective exhibition focuses on the last 10 years of work, including sculpture made especially for this occasion. Butterly is distinguished among modern and contemporary sculptors for her move to a highly personal, yet nakedly accessible ceramic language of line, form and color that tilts ever closer to emotive, endlessly inventive abstraction. Don't miss these exhibitions of some of the best of 澳门六合彩资料库 Davis art.
