Author: Butterly, Kathy
Clever, mischievous, seductive, defiant – for over three decades, American sculptor Kathy Butterly has captivated viewers with her experimental and expressive ceramic works. Published concurrently with Butterly’s expansive exhibition at the Tang Museum, 'Assume Yes' is a major monographic survey of her sculptural and ceramic work. It spans over 30 years and features colour plates of more than 200 artworks from 1994 to a selection of brand-new pieces. Butterly's signature small-scale porcelain and earthenware pieces evoke a range of moods, incorporating surprising colour and textures in her masterful deployment of ceramic techniques. In a gesture that veers toward iconoclasm, Butterly contorts traditional vessel forms, producing biomorphic, individualistic creations that seem to bend and fold. Every detail of a Butterly sculpture – from pools of orange glaze to pearlescent beads of clay – is an essential part of its composition.
ISBN 9781636812182. DelMonico Books. hb. 320 pages. 230 colour ills. 27.9 x 21.6 cm.
