Welcome to SOFA NEW YORK 2010!
It is interesting and encouraging to see top work being sold at SOFA fairs, which is similar to what we have seen in the major auctions—the best work being sold for a premium. It is a testament to the unsurpassed virtuosity of process and sophistication of many of the works at SOFA, but also a tribute to the resilient dealers, museum curators and collectors who stalwartly supported them through recent economic challenges. Congratulations to Director Holly Hotchner and the Board of Governors of the Museum of Arts and Design as they approach MAD’s second anniversary in its new home at 2 Columbus Circle, this extraordinary facility was likewise the result of much forward-thinking and perseverance. We are delighted to partner with MAD again on its Spring Benefit, held in the Tiffany Room at SOFA NEW YORK’s Opening Night Preview. MAD continues to be a leader in promoting the very best of our field, and their innovative educational programming and exhibitions deserve not only SOFA’s recognition, but yours. We are also delighted to partner with other prominent New York museums and organizations on SOFA NEW YORK’s VIP programming, and wish to thank The Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies, American Folk Art Museum, The Asia Society, The Jewish Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, for their ongoing partnership. 2009 was the first year of our newly reorganized company, The Art Fair Company, and I am pleased to report it has been a time of both consolidation and growth. Our flagship, SOFA CHICAGO is “steady as she goes,” enjoying a successful fair in 2009, marked by palpable excitement on the show floor and a remarkable rebounding in sales. 2009 also saw the Western expansion of the SOFA brand with the addition of SOFA WEST: Santa Fe last summer. Over 10,000 persons attended the inaugural fair (2000 on Opening Night! ) and we couldn’t be more encouraged. This year, hopes are even higher
as the fair moves to early July to join Santa Fe’s high summer season of art, with such venerable Santa Fe institutions as the Santa Fe Opera and International Folk Art Market in full swing. We are further delighted that the prestigious Museum of New Mexico Foundation, charged with oversight of the major museums in New Mexico including the Museum of Art, has expanded its participation in SOFA WEST: Santa Fe’s Opening Night. The Foundation plans a private preview for its highest level supporters, inviting its Circles membership and Business Council to an exclusive, early viewing of the fair. These individuals and companies are the movers and shakers of Santa Fe and New Mexico’s vibrant arts and culture. We hope you will save the date now to head West with SOFA, July 8 – 11, Opening Night, Wednesday, July 7, at the Santa Fe Convention Center. Thanks are due as always to the many individuals and organizations that assist with the production of the Lecture Series, which once again offers an exciting line-up of presentations. And to the hardworking SOFA team who organized and started up a new fair in 2009! We at SOFA do what we do because we love the art and the close-knit community of talented and engaged people who create and support it. If you are new to SOFA, welcome and enjoy!

Dear Friends,
A Year of Making Art
On behalf of the Board of Trustees and staff of the Museum of Arts and Design, a warm welcome back to the collectors and visitors of SOFA NEW YORK 2010, the Thirteenth Annual International Exposition of Sculpture Objects and Functional Art.
As we enter a new decade and our second year at Columbus Circle, we are planning an exciting program of exhibitions focused on “the art of making art”. Come to the Museum to see our current shows:
This year we are honoring longtime MAD trustee, collector, friend and colleague Sandy Grotta. Sandy’s sense of style and intense commitment to our field has continued to transform the Park Avenue Armory since the inception of the event. We would not be here today without Sandy’s vision. A Year of Firsts 2009, our first full year of operation at Columbus Circle, was a year of many firsts for the Museum of Arts and Design. It was the first year in which: · 500,000 people have come through our doors; · membership numbered over seven thousand people, tripling that at our former location; · twelve exhibitions were presented annually; · dedicated galleries showcased the permanent collection including the first contemporary jewelry gallery in a museum setting; · artists worked in open studios, connecting artists and designers with the creative process of “making” with the public; · arts education classrooms served more then 10,000 children, youth, and families with arts education and hands-on art making projects; · more than 100 events featuring performance art, film, and other media were presented in our state of the art theatre; · visitors and members relaxed and enjoyed our summer Pop-Up Wine Bar; · shopping in the Retail Store was available off site in our Pop-Up Store located on the Upper East Side; and,
· Bigger, Better, More: The Art of Viola Frey features the artist’s monumental ceramic figures, bricolage sculptures, paintings, and works on paper; · Portable Treasuries: Silver Jewelry from the Nadler Collection is drawn from one of the most comprehensive holdings of ethnic and contemporary jewelry in the world. Portions of the collection have been generously donated to MAD by collectors Daniel and Serga Nadler. · Intertwined: Contemporary Baskets from the Sara and David Lieberman Collection, an extraordinary display of the range of basket making today, also represents a major gift to the collection. And, at the end of April, we will be presenting Dead or Alive featuring works by international contemporary artists who use organic materials to create engaging and inspiring objects and installations. The exhibition will highlight the creative processes that repurpose natural material, transforming the ordinary and overlooked into the extraordinary and memorable. Many thanks to our SOFA Committee: Arlene Caplan, Michele Cohen, Marcia Docter, Kris Fuchs, Lewis Kruger, Nanette Laitman, Jack Lenor Larsen, Jeffrey Manocherian, Klara Silverstein, Barbara Shuster, and Barbara Tober. Special thanks also to Mark Lyman and The Art Fair Company. Their passionate and dedicated commitment to our field has encouraged tens of thousands of people to become collectors of arts and design. Lastly, thanks to all of you for your continued generous support of the Museum. Warmest Regards,
· Museum visitors and guests could dine at Robert, MAD’s new restaurant located on the 9th Floor with its panoramic views and design themed décor and furniture. Holly Hotchner The Nanette L. Laitman Director

Essays Ruth Duckworth: True to Form Time Present, Time Future By Emmanuel Cooper Finnish Ceramics By Emma Crichton-Miller
Essays
Ruth Duckworth: True to Form
“The Ruth I knew was someone fiercely independent about her work, who knew what she wanted to do and had the confidence to do it… I don’t believe artists can become great artists if they don’t believe in themselves. Ruth believed in herself.” Thea Burger Ruth Duckworth Memorial Service December 4, 2009
“I am quite sure that as an influence on pottery worldwide Ruth Duckworth is of the greatest importance. She influenced and led a whole generation of post-war ceramic artists in Britain – Hans Coper, Gordon Baldwin, Ian Auld, Gillian Lowndes, All Wallwork, Dan Arbeid and many others. All acknowledge their debt to her, especially for freeing them from tradition.” Birks, Tony. kerameiki techni: International Ceramic Art Review (1998): 48-49.
“Ruth Duckworth does not care to explain her work. Her ceramic sculptures are not representations. Nor does she seek meanings or justifications for them in her personal history. She prefers viewers to develop their own interpretations… Has she tempered her scale over the years, as Agnes Martin has by reducing her canvases because that’s what she can comfortably move herself? Duckworth scoffs: ‘That’s what you have assistants for, they’re very useful to move things,’ She adds, ‘I’m smaller, but my work’s not.” Koplos, Janet. “Sources of Inspiration: The potter Ruth Duckworth discusses her life and work with Janet Koplos.” International Crafts Magazine September/October (1999): 46.
“Form is so much more important to me than color,” says Duckworth. Ruth Lopez, “At 82, a Sculptor Remains True to Form (and to Energy),” The New York Times, January 3, 2002. 21
[ Duckworth recalls] “One night … I was looking at the stars. Suddenly, I saw them not only beside each other, but before and behind one another, truly three dimensional. It almost pushed me into the ground, I became so small. But it was magnificent and awe-inspiring— the distances were staggering.” McTwigan, Michael. “Ruth Duckworth.” American Ceramics 10/2 (1992): 20.
Duckworth an adventurous and restless creator once said: “I would like to learn to scuba dive … to go down into that dark depth.” The Times, London, UK, November 6, 2009
“My aim is direct, not to be new or shocking or provoke mystery, but rather to make the viewer feel good. I would say overall my works are meditative with a healing quality,” says Duckworth. Brook Mason, “Artist’s Interview, Ruth Duckworth at 80,” The Art Newspaper, 68, May 1999, 92.

Ruth Duckworth, a sculptor in clay and bronze, died on October 18, 2009 in Chicago at the age of 90. A refugee from Nazi Germany, she studied in England, where she was influenced by Barbara Hepworth, Isamu Noguchi, Lucie Rie among others. These influences made her a pioneer in the development of sculptural and nonfunctional ceramics in the United States. She served on the faculty of the University of Chicago from 1964–1977. She remained in the city converting an old pickle factory into her studio and loft. She is known for her large ceramic murals, major bronze sculptures, as well as smaller abstract ceramic pieces. A major retrospective of her work, Ruth Duckworth, Modernist Sculptor toured the country showing at the Renwick Gallery in 2006-2007. Brenda Erickson, Board Member James Renwick Alliance JRA Newsletter, November 2009 Ruth Duckworth’s artwork is represented at SOFA NEW YORK 2010 by Thea Burger

Time Present, Time Future By Emmanuel Cooper
A.
Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future, And time future contained in time past. T. S . E l i o t
When the Jesuit missionary Père Francois Xavier d’Entrecolles 1 wrote a vivid, first-hand account of the manufacture of the ‘beautiful porcelain’ in the city of Jingdezhen in China during the first quarter of the eighteenth century, his closely observed and detailed description of its manufacture helped fuel the popular interest in all things Chinese in the West. More recently, the invasion of (part of) the Terra Cotta Army at London’s British Museum 2 has added a further dimension to understanding the power and force of the ceramics of this artistically enterprising and technologically accomplished country. Little wonder, then, that so many people, and in particular potters, continue to fall under its spell. In August 2006 Felicity Aylieff arrived for a six month residency in Jingdezhen, no starry-eyed orientalist but with a specific project to make a series of large, two metre high vessels. Calling on her previous experience of, and success in, handling large-scale objects, contact was made with a family business that specialized in making tall pots made from thrown sections that were joined together to form one unified shape. To her surprise, she discovered that these were made by two potters working together throwing each section very thickly. When bone dry, these were luted together with slip and the entire outside surface turned to the required shape. The method she saw closely echoed that described so diligently by the intrepid observer Père d’Entrecolles; ‘The large objects of porcelain are made in two pieces; one half is lifted on the wheel by three or four men, who support it on each side while it is being shaped; the other half, which is almost dry, is put on to it, and they join the two together with the same porcelain materials diluted with water, which serves as a sort of mortar or glue. When these pieces, so glued, are quite dry the seam or join is polished inside and outside with a tool, so that, with the help of the glaze, no inequality is left. In this way, too, they put handles, ears, and other pieces on to vases.’ Ambitiously, Aylieff wanted even more large-sized vessels, some with up to six sections. A.

The vessels Aylieff had in mind were tall and cylindrical, some straight sided, some gently swelling, others articulated by emphasizing the joins of the different sections while some had a shoulder to create a more bottle-like form. To achieve maximum visual impact, all had to be at least three metres tall when made, taking into account the fact that the extraordinary porcelain body contracted dramatically during firing. Although she had a clear idea of the sort of forms she wanted, these often had to be modified to deal with the practical restraints imposed by the clay and the shapes the potters were able to make. As the pieces were assembled it was clearly fascinating to see the final silhouette emerge as the outside was turned, like a sculptor chipping away stone or carving wood to reveal the form beneath. The thick-walled throwing and heavy turning was a testament to a clay body that, while dictating its own limitations, could be worked once its idiosyncrasies were accepted. When decorating the forms, in theory, Aylieff was able to exert more control but the scale and absorbent, raw surface limited possibilities. Preparation and research was extensive, for she wanted to explore a variety of methods, ranging from painting, low relief carving and linear decoration to transfer printing. Aware of the long tradition of Chinese blue and white decoration, Aylieff felt free to borrow the technique but use it in her own way. The discovery of a supplier of beautiful, hand-made Chinese calligraphy brushes provided the necessary tools to approach the vast pieces with confidence. After many tests of colours and glazes, she settled for traditional mixtures of iron and cobalt, which imparted a soft, muted, inky blue – a dark blue-black – under a clear glaze.
B.
Once the physical challenge of working on such large vessels had been solved, Aylieff sought to use the brush marks expressively, letting her hand rove across and around the surface, avoiding anything that looked representative or too selfconscious. The process and the resulting marks have much in common with the approach of Tachiste artists who wanted the pigment to flow directly from the unconscious, unthinking part of the brain. On some pieces the result is a fluttering, loose pattern of abstract, multi-layered marks covering the surface that intensify awareness of it while remaining fully in keeping with the form and its scale. In the vessel Chasing Black, the brush strokes build up an almost three-dimensional effect of depth as they move over and around the classic form.

On other pieces, such as Three Brushes, the marks of the brush are more wild and assertive, the pigment more thickly applied so that it almost seems to bite into the surface. The gently swelling, slightly shouldered form is almost obliterated by the broad cobalt and iron brush strokes that virtually cover the entire surface. This is an artist attacking the clay to bring it under control while, paradoxically, liberating it from its formal constraints, setting up a tension between form and surface while creating an integrated whole. On the piece, Chasing Red, Aylieff painted scarlet red enamel decoration over the cobalt and iron underglaze with the same sense of freedom. The brushstrokes flicker and shift over the surface, the marks subtly capturing the essence of form. On other forms Aylieff has adopted a more ordered approach, with the broad, energetic brushstrokes following and intensifying their structure. In pieces such as Chinese Ladders and Fu Ru Dong Hai Shou Bi Nan Shan: Abundance and Prosperity like the East Sea, Longevity like Nan Mountain, take on a more architectural, tower-like quality both in the form, in which one section appears to grow out of another, and in the assertive, defining brushstrokes. By heightening awareness of the articulated form, Aylieff has created a pattern-like quality that emphasizes both the structure of the container and its surface. In contrast to this Expressionist approach, some pieces make effective use of the thick walls for carved, low-relief decoration. To this end Aylieff made a series of meticulous drawings of flowers and plants, which were cut up and reassembled, examined, photocopied and morphed together to investigate decorative possibilities. Eventually these were simplified into a design of multi-layered natural forms that were intended to cover the entire surface. Carving into the resilient porcelain proved a challenge, but the outcome is light and delicate. On some pieces, to add a further layer of visual interest, stenciled linear designs were added. In Lian Hua: Lotus Flowers, the abstract
elongated lotus leaf appears to move into and out of the surface, which is further heightened by delicate blue transfers. From a distance the forms take on a soft texture, and it is only on close inspection that the detail of the low relief carving can be seen. The paradoxes that Aylieff investigates so subtly in these vessels – between tradition and innovation, the floral and the abstract, precision and freedom – is explored differently in Hú Dié Jì Jié – Butterfly Season. This almost straight-sided cylindrical form is turned into a summer celebration by the addition of hundreds of brilliantly coloured butterflies in blues, reds, pinks and greens that flutter gracefully over the surface, a symbolic expression of release and liberation. Crowded and life-size at the base, they become smaller as they move up the form, suggesting they are flying away, freed to enjoy their short lives. During a break in the making, Aylieff took time off to visit Shanghai and the Museum of Quin Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses Army in Xian, where she, like other visitors, marveled at the sheer scale of the enterprise and, despite their apparent similarity, the individuality of each of the figures. Unknowingly, the visit may have prompted her to make four large vessels with shoulders, which she describes as ‘a bit like a row of soldiers’, an impression that all these tall figurative-like vessel forms possess. The twelve vessels, majestic and assured, are clearly members of the same distinctive family but consist of unique individuals. Subtly and quietly, to quote T.S. Eliot, they embody time past, time present and time future.
Père Francois Xavier d'Entrecolles, 1664 to 1741, was a Jesuit missionary who traveled to China in 1698, where he studied some of the secrets of porcelain manufacture. His letters, written in 1712 and 1722 were amongst the first accounts available in the West on Chinese porcelain and helped to fuel the European craze for porcelain and the search for its formula.

Finnish Ceramics Kati Tuominen-Nittylä Kristina Riska Kirsi Kivivirta Pekka Paikkar By Emma Crichton-Miller
A.
The four artists brought together in Galerie Besson’s SOFA NEW YORK exhibition represent the pinnacle of contemporary Finnish ceramics. All are well known both in Finland and abroad, with many national and international honours to their names. At the peak of their powers, technically and creatively, they have forged out of a common cultural inheritance, unequivocally individual styles that speak to their own particular concerns. At the same time—however, their pieces vary widely in scale, texture and sources of inspiration, encompassing vessel forms, wall pieces and free-standing sculpture—there is an underlying sensibility that they share. These similarities are partly explained by education – three of the artists (Kati Tuominen-Niittylä, Kristina Riska, and Kirsi Kivivirta) studied at the renowned University of Art and Design in Helsinki. In addition, there is a shared attachment to the particular landscape of Finland, and to its difficult history wedged between the empires of Sweden and Russia. All four revel in the natural properties of their chosen material, eschewing highly coloured glazes in preference either for the colours of the clay body itself, or for natural pigments and metallic oxides. These subtly various creams and ochres, terracottas, blacks and rusts, echo back and forth, suggesting imaginations attuned to the restricted palette of the Finnish countryside and to the limited materials – wood, clay, wool, bone, paper – readily available. In the ethereal, thin yellow light of the north, small contrasts become magnified – the black and white of birch bark, the blue of water beneath the ice, wood or brick buildings in the snow, the soft green of islands in vast blue lakes.
B.
Three of the four artists (Kati Tuominen-Niittylä, Kristina Riska and Pekka Paikkari) also work in adjacent studios in the legendary Arabia Art Department. Since 1937, high up on the ninth floor of the Arabia (today Iittala) Factory Building in Helsinki, select ceramic artists have been invited to set up shop, simultaneously designing pieces for manufacture and making unique, one-off works. This respect for individual creativity has been a cornerstone of Finland’s strong design tradition, and has enabled these artists to move freely between functional and non-functional forms, between designing products to please many and creating single pieces that allow them fully to express themselves.

For Kati Tuominen-Niittylä, a common thread in all her work is simplicity. Her lovely forms are inspired by the archetypal shapes of buckets, sieves, bowls and baskets still found on some farms, with solid, flat, bottoms and rounded handles. Her high-fired, often coarse stoneware clay, either thrown or hand-built, appears almost geological. And yet the surfaces, patinated with colouring oxides or carved with tools, revel in a sophisticated interplay of colours and textures. In Kristina Riska’s large-scale, hand-built forms the highly expressive surfaces are matched by the dynamism of the material itself. Her large vessels echo back through time and place, recalling archaic pots or carved out boats, while her pierced and interwoven abstract pieces seem inspired as much by the contemporary architecture of the city as by more primitive dwellings. Architecture inspires Kirsi Kivivirta’s work, also, both as context and as subject matter. Her gentle ceramic surfaces and mosaics, which play with simple, geometric or organic shapes, enlivened by many small variations in colour, shape and structure, hesitate between abstraction and simple formalism. Her Chamber series engages more directly with illusion, and the pictorial potential of clay. Haunted by pots, their long history and powerful symbolism, Pekka Paikkari finds a different creative freedom in his own wall and floor pieces. Unapologetically a sculptor, Paikkari embraces the accidents and raw facts of his profession, leaving the marks of hands and tools on his clay, working with, rather than against the uncontrollable transformations of the kiln. Firing is the dramatic process that gives birth to his cracked and singed pieces, which sometimes incorporate bricks and other building materials, as though already freighted with history. This is ceramic art as archaeology, resonant with time and place.
