Chief Curator and Deputy Director
Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art Toronto

How are contemporary ceramics contributing in new ways to broader dialogues in contemporary art? What are some ways artists in the field exploiting the properties and metaphors of the medium? How do practices differ regionally and nationally? Please join Dr. Sequoia Miller for this talk exploring the state of contemporary ceramics. He will consider these and other questions, with special attention to the work of Tip Toland and other artists who are working in figurative idioms. The 2021 Russell and Marjorie Day Estate Lecture Series is presented in collaboration with Bellevue Arts Museum along with the current exhibition Tip Toland: Empathy in Clay.
