POPULARITY
courtesy of Ruiz-Healy Art, New York / San Antonio Nicolás Leiva is renowned for his exuberant sculptures and paintings that capture various expressive personal visions. Vessels, boats, abstract forms, flying carriages are transformed into ceramics in an explosion of lush primary colors embossed with metals like silver and gold. Animals and vegetables commingle in a garden of flowers amidst otherworldly places of shelter, are replicated as box-like reliquaries, and plate-like medallions in miniature close-up show territories transitioned from his works on paper. His imaginative world unfolds in infinite realms like a Möbius strip. Highly gestural, organic, or geometric, Leiva presents a host of archetypes in his emblems of flight, safety, and delight. Born in 1958 in Tucumán, Argentina, Leiva graduated from the Fine Arts School of the Universidad Nacional de Tucumán. He continued his studies in Buenos Aires and moved to Miami in 1990. In 1996, he extended his practice to sculpture and ceramics. He lives part-time in Faenza, Italy, where he works with a variety of materials at the workshops of Ceramica Gatti. His work is the subject of the 2005 monograph Nicolas Leiva: The Fire of Self and Multiplication with scholarly text by Ricardo Pau-Llosa and Mariza Vescovo published by Bandecchi & Vivaldi in Italy. He has had many important solo and group exhibitions in the US and internationally, notably his 2023 solo exhibition, Historia de un día, Museo de Bellas Artes Laureano Brizuela, Catamarca, Argentina. Leiva was recently selected for the 2023 Miami Individual Artist (MIA) Grant, Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs in Miami, FL. His works are in the permanent collections of the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA); The Snite Museum of Art at the University of Notre Dame, Indiana; the Berardo Collection in Lisbon, Portugal; the Gollinelli Collection in Bologna, Italy; and the Museum of Art of Fort Lauderdale in Florida. The Civic Museum of Marble, Carrara, Italy; Museo Maria Zambrano, Malaga, Spain; José Luis Cuevas Museum, Mexico City, México; Museum of Latin American Art, Long Beach, CA; and Fundación Federico García Lorca, Madrid, Spain.

Elin sitter i sin ouppvärmda skrivarstuga och kissar i en hink – inte undra på att hon är arg? Men vad passar då bättre än att drömma sig bort till fantasins önskelistor!Kattis önskar sig en ny stil, med oversize kavajer, 80-talspälsmössa och upcyclad jacka. Elin drömmer mest om en egen häst (och en gård i Italien) och vet precis hur den skulle levereras. För visst kan presentationen av en present vara en julklapp i sig? Dessutom Liselotte Watkins, Majolica frutibowls och samiskt kulturarv. Klippt har som vanligt Sofia Haag. Tack för att du lyssnar, om du gillar, tipsa gärna en kompis och trevlig helg!

We played a whole bunch of new games at PAX East and you're going to hear about them! Marc, Matt, and a SECOND Marc bring you the lowdown on every single one of them. This is a mega episode with some mega games (but not megagames, sadly). One of them is easily leading GOTY contention for 2019. We've got euros, we've got dexterity games, we've got train games, and one that kinda looks like a children's construction set. Don't even get me started on Trollfjord.

It's our first listener-suggested episode topic: Majolica! The Victorians went wild for it. Queen Mary destroyed it. Many strong feelings this week. Get hype.

We then suggest an unusual silver colored vessel might be for burning in church and we talk about the GAR…)we’ll tell you what the GAR stands for and what a celebration booklet might be worth. All this and MAJOLICA!
Tales of a Red Clay Rambler: A pottery and ceramic art podcast
Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Walter Ostrom. One of the early adopters of earthenware Majolica pottery, Walter has been a major influence on generations of North America ceramic artists. Through his almost forty year teaching career at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design he upheld functional ceramics as a conceptually rich medium that deserved equal footing in academia. To see images of Walters work please visit the episode guide at www.talesofaredclayrambler.com. Today’s episode is part of Canada week, a series of five episodes featuring Canadian Clay artists from Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. For more information about Canada week please visit the episode guide at www.talesofaredclayrambler.com.
The Isle of Capri, a short boat ride from Sorrento or Naples is well worth a visit. The main town of Capri sits in a saddle above the port. The main square of this cute and touristy shopping mecca has steep prices but the window shopping is free. Up the hill lies Anacapri, the island’s second town with fewer tourists, a little more character, and a passion for colorful Majolica tiles. Ride the chairlift to the summit of Monte Solaro for stunning Mediterranean views and a delightful downhill hike.
