Ceramics, as a distinct and autonomous art form, implies the coming together of a form and a surface.

 This form generally (if not always) is volumetric in nature, that is to say that it is hollow inside and has  been generated from the inside out, as a volume. The surface, whatever quality it takes, although it may describe the volumetric form, as it does here, remains distinct from the form itself, as it does here, as well. The surface is another layer of information added to the form. Only ceramics behave in such a fashion in all art disciplines and these characteristics are specific to ceramics (and pottery) as art forms.

The fact that the object is made with (fired) clay is of some importance too, but I would argue that it is not, by far, the most important aspect to define an object as ceramics. Conceptual aspects like a volumetric form and a distinct surface are much more important than mere material. In fact, in the object under discussion here and in Jason Walker’s work in general, the “clayness” of the work is of little significant importance, for a variety of reasons. For example, there is little if any obvious tactility

CLAY IS HOT! — CONNOISSEURSHIP: BUY, SELL, GIVE is a moderated panel discussion among art professionals and collectors presented in the Ferrin Contemporary gallery at 1315 MASS MoCA Way in North Adams, on Sunday, July 10, 2016, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. Moderator Leslie Ferrin will lead panelists in a conversation-style discussion and exchange with the audience about issues surrounding changes taking place in and impacts on public and private collections. This event is free and open to the public, but reservations are requested.

Ferrin explained “We are in the midst of ‘The Great De-accession,’ the result of a generation of baby boomer artists and collectors downsizing simultaneously. Starting with the question of what to do ‘when the kids don’t want it,’ those who are in the midst of this dilemma are leading the way and finding successful approaches to shifting of collections, archives, and libraries. In the process, a by-product is the development of a new generation of collectors, curators, and art professionals who are involved in exploring various strategies to build collections and establish legacies for the artwork of the late 20th and early 21st century.“

The panel will address issues especially relevant to those who wish to sell and give and will discuss the challenges
