- CERAMICS of JACK TROY
A major figure and force in the contemporary ceramics field, ceramic artist Jack Troy is known for his
wood-fired vessel and container forms, which are found in many private and public collections, including the Smithsonian Institution. His seminal book, Salt Glazed Ceramics, was published in 1977 and Wood-fired Stoneware and Porcelain in 1995. Teacher, writer, potter, and Pennsylvanian, Troy has been awarded two Craft Fellowships for his work in ceramics by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. A workshop and illustrated lecture accompanies the exhibit, which highlights Troy’s recent work in
stoneware and porcelain from his two anagama-style woodburning kilns. Of his work, he says, “Having made pottery for 45 years, I’m pleased to know that my cups, bowls, and vessels can be found among those of other potters whose work is owned and enjoyed by people who use it every day.”
Jack Troy Illustrated Lecture: November 17th, 6 PM at Comerford Theatre followed by a Reception at 7:30 PM. For information, see Other Programs.

- Painting on the Trail of the Hudson River School - MIHARU LANE
In large-scale canvases of dramatic views with atmospheric lighting seeking to capture a sense of the divine, the work of the Hudson River School painters created a deeper appreciation for the nation’s natural wonders, and laid the groundwork for the environmental conservation movement and National Park Service. Painting on location at the sites that inspired America’s first great landscape artists including Thomas Cole, Frederic Church, Asher B. Durand, Jasper Cropsey, Sanford Gifford and others, Lane’s oil paintings compare the painted scenes from the 1800’s with the same vistas today.
Reception: April 5th, 2–5 PM
