McMullen Museum of Art exhibit: The Lost Generation: Women Ceramicists and the Cuban Avant-Garde
This exhibit examines the participants and artistic output from 1949 to 1959 of the Taller de Santiago de Las Vegas, a ceramic workshop on the outskirts of Havana.
" A decade of artistic experimentation primarily by little known women ceramicists had deep reverberations both for the acceptance of ceramics as a fine art form in Cuba and for the symbiotic relationship that flourished between the ceramicists and the painters, largely men, who visited the workshop."
Featuring nearly 150 vases, mugs, water jugs, murals and plates drawn from premier private and gallery collections, this exhibit displays for the first time many of Taller's finest ceramics and includes dozens of paintings and sculptures.
