3-D Modeling and Ceramic Media

April 12, 2012 - Leave a Response

New technology is having a huge impact on the art industry.  KCAI has taken strides to include new technology in the teaching program.

The 3-D Modeling and Ceramic Media elective course teaches students to use Rhino, a 3-D modeling software program.  Students design models that are virtual representations of their ideas.

Student’s renderings are translated into physical objects through the use of the CNC mill.

2012 McKeown Special Project Awards

March 8, 2012 - Leave a Response

The McKeown Special Project Awards were created to fund special artistic and research projects in the KCAI ceramics department. Students may apply for research-based travel or materials and supplies to support the creation of an otherwise cost prohibitive artwork. The application process mimics that of a professional grant, offering students skill-building experience in writing proposals as well as the opportunity to advance their work in studio and research.

The 2012 McKeown Special Project Awards were granted to seniors Ben Harle, Hank Hafkemeyer, Will Preman, Katie Long, and Shae Bishop.

Ben Harle  will  purchase equipment for incorporating light and water elements into his mixed media installations.

Ben Harle

Hank Hafkemeyer will buy machineable foam and wax materials for milling digitally generated forms on the CNC mill.  These will become prototypes for plaster molds, then ceramic castings.  Hank will also procure hydrographic film and a chemical activator  for coating his dimensional forms with digital images, which he will demonstrate during the course of the semester.

Will Preman will purchase a vinyl plotter with a pen attachment to draw and cut templates for use in developing new surface treatments for ceramic sculptures.

Workstudy at The Ken Ferguson Teaching Collection Room

March 8, 2012 - One Response

The Ken Ferguson Teaching Collection is an amazing opportunity for students in the KCAI ceramics department.  It is a place for students to handle and inspect work made by KCAI ceramic students, alumni, faculty, and visitors.  It is also an opportunity for a work study position.

Teaching Collection Room

Jen Watson, junior, is currently the student manager for the teaching collection.  Her job entails keeping the collection room and the ceramic pieces residing in it clean and organized.  Jen also has the opportunity to create exhibitions for the display cases and windows.  The current exhibitions focus on the new acquisitions received from Victor Babu, retired professor, last winter’s intersession glass class, and tea pots and pouring vessels.  Jen is also responsible for cataloging and labeling new acquisitions and, on  occasion, researching specific pieces within the collection.

Jen says that this work study position is exciting because she handles pieces by well-known ceramic artists like Richard Notkin and Kurt Weiser, but it is also stressful because she’s handling fragile ceramic objects.

Study Abroad in Hungary: Summer 2011

February 4, 2012 - Leave a Response
In May and June of 2011, George Timock led the seventh summer trip to the International Ceramics Studio in  Kecskemét, Hungary.  Students lived and worked in the studios, enjoying access to Herend porcelain clay and slip.  This material is very white and translucent.   There was instruction in industrial methods of forming, including the plaster wheel, and china paints.  Amazingly beautiful china paints and lusters can be procured in Europe.  In addition to the studio, students learned the history of Hungarian architecture, including beautiful ceramic ornaments made by the Zsolnay manufacturing company.  The group enjoyed field trips to the Herend porcelain factory, Budapest, Cesky Kromluv, a medieval town in the Czech Republic.  Here we are relaxing in Budapest after partaking of the baths.

Internships

November 3, 2011 - Leave a Response

Internships are an important part of the KCAI ceramics department curriculum, offering students professional experience in the field.  Each semester many students participate in a variety of internships in Kansas City and elsewhere.

KCAI’s campus is bounded by the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.  These museums offer ample opportunities for exciting internships.

Currently, there are three ceramics majors interning at the Nelson.  Senior Ben Harle works with the exhibition lighting and design staff, designing pedestals for the upcoming, groundbreaking exhibition Inventing the Modern World: Decorative Arts at the World’s Fairs, 1851-1939Ben also recently assisted lighting for the current George Ault and Romare Bearden exhibitions.

Junior Maura Wright is interning with Catherine Futter, curator of decorative arts at the Nelson, and co-curator of the World’s Fair exhibition.  Maura is preparing information labels for this show, which opens in April 2012.

Senior Roberto Lugo is interning as teaching assistant for New Dimensions, an innovative educational program at the Nelson.

At the Kemper, Cydney Ross is assisting the museum educator, helping to develop and program workshops, lectures and events. Cydney also helped with artist Jeanne Quinn‘s installation at the Kemper Crossroads space and helped prep Teri Frame‘s performance, Lavatar’s Animals.

In Kansas City, there are many local artist’s studios, galleries, and other art institutions where students can intern and prepare for the real world.

Red Star Studios is lucky to have Sasha Alexandra as their intern.  She is working with the gallery space,  learning what it takes to run a gallery – from packaging artworks for shipping, to corresponding with exhibiting artists about upcoming shows.

Will Preman is interning with artist Andy Braymen.  Will helps Andy slip cast objects and make molds.  He is learning to use 3-D modeling software programs  and how to trouble shoot some of the technical problems that arise with this process.

Joseph Hutchins and Nate Salvin are working with artist Rain Harris, helping create her commercial line and her fine art sculpture.  They are learning what it takes to make a living as an artist.

Jordon Kern teaches art to preschool children in her internship at Children’s Song, a Lifeways Program inspired by the teaching of Rudolf Steiner.

Dean Roper is interning with artist Meredith Host.  He helps apply decals for Meredith’s commercial line, foldedpigs, and decorate her Dot Dot Dash dinner ware sets.

Molly Ryan is interning with artist Misty Gamble, helping Misty prepare work for an upcoming Exhibition  at the  Sherry Leedy Contemporary Art gallery.

Maret Miller interns at the American Jazz Museum. She assists with curatorial tasks, records and edits video, and designs print for the museum’s promotional materials.

Rob Lugo Wins Bread KC! Last Spring

October 20, 2011 - Leave a Response

Our very own ceramics major Roberto Lugo won Bread KC! in May of the 2011 spring semester.

Bread KC! is a competitive opportunity for artists to present project proposals for funding.    The public is invited to an event that offers a home made meal for ten dollars.  After eating, three artists give formal presentations describing their project ideas.   The money gathered from the purchase of dinners is awarded to one of the three artists.  The winner is decided by popular vote.

The old trusted World War II bread dough mixer finally bit the dust.  It was cut down to pieces over the summer, and finally after much sweat, a few nicks and bruises, and no tears, the mixer was moved out, and hauled away.  For good.  Thanks to Tom Binger for all his hard work!

The fall 2010-11 semester flew by and everyone worked hard for the end of semester show.  Sophomores, juniors, and seniors all had been planning and imagining how their own work would be on display since the beginning of the semester.  Finally seeing all our plans and drawings of our plans come together for a noteworthy show rewarded all involved.   We said goodbye to Hannah Blackwell, Mariko Brown, Harmony Chapman, Courtney Cox, Ryan Fletcher, and Tess Stilwell, who were our six graduating seniors.

The exhibition name, (Re)Action, was inspired by the H&R Block Artspace’s (Re)Form, a showcase of KCAI’s ceramic alumni. Displayed at overlapping dates, the two exhibitions enhanced the other through the dialogue created between past and current students.

As the Fall semester wound down, (Re)Form, at the H&R Block Artspace, exhibited current work by KCAI ceramics alumni; what a testament to the 125th anniversary of Kansas City Art Institute and the ceramics department!  The following excerpt is from H&R Block Artspace:

(Re)Form explored recent work by graduates of the KCAI ceramics program from the late 1960s to the present.

Curated by Catherine L. Futter, the Helen Jane and R. Hugh “Pat” Uhlmann Curator of Decorative Arts at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, the exhibition included pieces primarily in ceramics that have been completed in the last two years and display a wide range of perspectives.

The artists invited to participate in the exhibition include well-known, mid-career and emerging artists who offer a variety of viewpoints — from the vessel and functional work to sculptures, installations and performance art.

(Re)Form demonstrates the diversity of artistic expression in KCAI’s vibrant ceramics program.”
