“Blue-White, White-Blue”

The Galerie Handwerk in Munich will dedicate its summer exhibition 2009 to the subject of “Blue-White, White-Blue”. The aim of the exhibition is to show the ways in which Blue and White are used in contemporary crafts and to present modern concepts and decorations.

The secret is out!

Contemporary Australian artists innovate with an ancient technique that has entranced and delighted audiences for centuries. The secret is out!

After a highly successful tour to five countries in Asia, this specially developed and beautiful exhibition comes to Adelaide. A Secret History of Blue and White’s has had a record breaking tour to Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, China and Australia and will be on show at JamFactory 26 June - 27 July.

The exhibition features important works by five of Australia’s most outstanding ceramic artists: Stephen Benwell, Robin Best, Bronwyn Kemp, Vipoo Srivilasa and Gerry Wedd. While the techniques of blue and white are simple, its history and contemporary interpretation are not. It remains a rich and powerful area of practice, a challenge worthy of today’s artists.

This exhibition reflects the impact of history, technology and trade to showcase blue and white’s development and its expression in compelling contemporary interpretations of the landscape, current affairs, political history, cultural relationships and the artists’ own lives.
