To try something different, I have chosen to tackle the space with a site-specific architectural intervention. The museum recently renovated there main gallery space, so I will take care of the 'spotlight gallery'. The rosette is a press mold made from a plaster original provided by my neighbor Rory - a talented architectural plaster restorer. Along with a team of assistants, we made a tun over 6 days of work - going through over 600 pounds of clay. What I didn't account for was the time it would take to get them through the kilns. Thankfully, they are all done and ready for installation this week.<br /><br />The opening is this Friday, the 15th of July if you are in the area. If not, the show is up until October.<br /> More pictures to follow...Martina Lantinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14679742181130797159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190306879308371747.post-16778334409474519502011-04-28T01:03:00.006-04:002011-04-28T01:15:32.955-04:00plates and wallpaper<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGtB16SVixTsdRJg3fQTUZzsOnQyZ4rBS_X5InOqwKQywRTxigxnEHyIg9eccWpknrboHCoVjTtWF82lrfzK6ugehYjD9-0zSSipPlCQxOip7u5xr_bq9Gungg8vl9o4q8-Vxw6SPIUivT/s1600/IMG_4331.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 322px; height: 430px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGtB16SVixTsdRJg3fQTUZzsOnQyZ4rBS_X5InOqwKQywRTxigxnEHyIg9eccWpknrboHCoVjTtWF82lrfzK6ugehYjD9-0zSSipPlCQxOip7u5xr_bq9Gungg8vl9o4q8-Vxw6SPIUivT/s320/IMG_4331.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600497238893457890" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtMvT9X_rOXcOxSlRzYoxqpPXgrwYU73MJQ9Hkp2e9EAlXTpq8eWgyiio4IP9tWgyiPSLAGuBfnoabKzexQdPs-w3h4i-bobKGch6vWgMGuUwKO_XAcb9lsKDNguUQYBl4_jADjLHnVJST/s1600/IMG_4344.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 307px; height: 409px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtMvT9X_rOXcOxSlRzYoxqpPXgrwYU73MJQ9Hkp2e9EAlXTpq8eWgyiio4IP9tWgyiPSLAGuBfnoabKzexQdPs-w3h4i-bobKGch6vWgMGuUwKO_XAcb9lsKDNguUQYBl4_jADjLHnVJST/s320/IMG_4344.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600497232333922226" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm6uI0o8aimjTuvhlacmV5kbtylPCc3n3rIC9fSQ_S_y4obCEwDQlQWkam03r7BRO-H3EH5tvdC9dj8XHZnjllaHxbD6uKDd2855NZdqs1x2AzyHuxmxeudNhtEGC6P15388OGQVwNfBga/s1600/IMG_4343.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 338px; height: 450px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm6uI0o8aimjTuvhlacmV5kbtylPCc3n3rIC9fSQ_S_y4obCEwDQlQWkam03r7BRO-H3EH5tvdC9dj8XHZnjllaHxbD6uKDd2855NZdqs1x2AzyHuxmxeudNhtEGC6P15388OGQVwNfBga/s320/IMG_4343.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600497228327095682" border="0" /></a><br />I'm already too excited for my upcoming workshop at <a href="http://www.haystack-mtn.org/">Haystack</a> this summer. I'll be taking a large-format screen printing class. in making wallpaper, I'll be able to explore the relationship between the plates and the walls behind them in a more direct way. The pictures were taken at the MFA in Boston. The Japanese <span style="font-style: italic;">Noh</span> costumes really intrigue me for the visual information of round forms on geometric background.<br />For images of my past plate installations visit <a href="http://www.mlceramics.com/portfolio-plate.php">this link to my website</a>.Martina Lantinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14679742181130797159noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190306879308371747.post-52212196181716900312011-04-20T23:11:00.005-04:002011-04-20T23:21:37.643-04:00Hispano-MORE-esque<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHXdJkt73LNtJ9gnu7g59U8kAiS2X-MamPMD3HgsB5O-mQRY0IDAKKOeT-bN9yanvDlLgbwqN-ji4GtEvQDV5ODINKXfzcWQX1J3As_OGzpRxuwR9RHdcdNJDC4RMyUZW_KtDb70DYB2j7/s1600/Spain%252CManises%253AValencia%252CDish%252CLate15th-early16thCen.CE%2528back%2529.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 446px; height: 437px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHXdJkt73LNtJ9gnu7g59U8kAiS2X-MamPMD3HgsB5O-mQRY0IDAKKOeT-bN9yanvDlLgbwqN-ji4GtEvQDV5ODINKXfzcWQX1J3As_OGzpRxuwR9RHdcdNJDC4RMyUZW_KtDb70DYB2j7/s320/Spain%252CManises%253AValencia%252CDish%252CLate15th-early16thCen.CE%2528back%2529.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5597869706128106706" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Spain,Manises, Valencia,Dish,Late15th-early16thCen.CE(back)</span></div><br />Check out this beauty!<br />My friend Sean O'Connell is and incredible collector of historical ceramic images and recently shared his trove with me (<a href="http://seanoconnellpottery.com/home.html">his website click here</a>) .
