James Cohan is pleased to present Color In Forming, an exhibition of new sculptural work by Kathy Butterly, on view at 48 Walker Street from February 24 through March 26. This is Butterly’s second solo exhibition with James Cohan. The gallery will host an opening reception with the artist on Saturday, February 26 from 2-6 PM. Masks are required for entry.
For nearly 30 years, Kathy Butterly has created striking ceramic sculptures with a powerful individuality that evince her technical mastery of the medium. Clay allows Butterly to work with color in three dimensions, pushing her materials to their expressive and physical limits. Her unparalleled explorations of form and color continue to expand the field of contemporary studio ceramics. While Butterly works on an intimate scale, complexity, virtuosity, and rigor are condensed in her vessels, each creating an expansive universe of its own.
