Opening September 25

MARCIA OLIVER / SERIT KOTOWSKI

Two remarkable Taos artists: Side by Side

September 25 thru November 11

​

Artists Reception Saturday, September 25, 4-6PM

The Taos Ceramics Center Gallery is delighted to present the transcendent paintings of Marcia Oliver and primordial ceramic sculptures/vessels of Serít Kotowski, side by side. These two wonderful Taos artists have been pursuing and exploring their art for decades, continuing to reveal visual and tactile nuances of the world in which we live.

​

Marcia Oliver was raised in Florida, received a graduate degree in painting and printmaking from San Jose State, and then moved to Taos on a one-year Wurlitzer Foundation residency award. That same year, she bought some land in Taos and built an adobe home. That was more than fifty years ago. Marcia has had a brilliant career as an abstract painter, printmaker and teacher. Her work has been widely shown, most recently in 2019, at the Harwood Museum of Art in Taos.

​

Serít Inez Kotowski has been a working artist for over 40 years receiving a BFA from Portland School of Art (now called MECA) in 1981. Her diverse travels both in the states, and internationally has nurtured and informed her work. Seríts’ current artistic focus is on large and small sculptural/ceremonial vessels and functional wares. There is a playful juxtaposition and sensuality of the smooth and tactile as well as the primative and contemporary.

Please join us for an artist reception on Saturday, September 25 from 4-6.

If you cannot make it then, please come by anytime until November 11. Our gallery hours are below.
