Description
Bacerra
was
recognized
early
in his
career
as a
key
artist
working
in
ceramics
by
two
major
publications
,
American
Ceramics
:
1876
to The
Present
by
Garth
Clark
(1987)
and The
History
of
American
Ceramics
: From
Pipkins
and
Bean
Pots
to
Contemporary
Forms
,
1607
to the
Present
by
Elaine
Levin
(1988)
.
More
recently
, his
work
appeared
in
several
significant
ceramic
exhibitions
at the
Los
Angeles
County
Museum
of
Art
in
2000
,
Newark
Museum
in
2003
, and the
Museum
of
Fine
Arts
,
Houston
in
2012
.
Despite
this
acknowledgement
,
Bacerra’s
work
remains
under-recognized
and
under-documented
,
having
lacked
a
major
survey
,
mid-career
, or
retrospective
devoted
entirely
to his
prodigious
output
and
vast
influence
. That
is
until
now
.
Exquisite
Beauty
brings
together
more
than
60
examples
of his
finest
works
,
showcasing
dramatic
,
highly
decorated
vessels
and
sculptures
that have
never
before
been the
focus
of a
major
exhibition
. These
masterworks
,
along
with a
fully
illustrated
catalog
,
illuminate
the
extraordinary
creative
vision
of
one
of the
key
ceramic
artists
of
our
time
.
