B.A. Ceramics Robert William Dickert Dates: 11.13.08 - 12.2.08
UNC Asheville Senior Will Dickert to Hold Ceramics Exhibition
Ceramics by Will Dickert will be on
view
November 14-December 1
"What You Will," featuring more than 40
pieces by UNC Asheville senior Will Dickert, will be on view
from November 14 to December 1 in UNC Asheville’s Highsmith
University Union Gallery. The exhibition is a collection of
Dickert’s work towards a bachelor of arts degree from UNC
Asheville. An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on
Friday, Nov. 14, in the gallery. The exhibition and opening
reception are free and open to the public.
The exhibition features functional ceramics that are all
wheel-thrown, high fire stoneware. "My approach to these lidded
forms has been driven by somewhat of a serial methodology by
working on one type and size of lid fitting at the time," said
Dickert. "I hope that my creations possess aesthetically and
tactilely pleasing qualities in the composition and glazing of
each piece. But first and foremost, I aspire to produce pots
that play a domestic and functioning role in the life of their
users."
The gallery is located on the lower level of UNC Asheville's
Highsmith University Union. It is free and open to the public 9
a.m.-9 p.m. weekdays and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. weekends when classes are
in session. For more information, call 828/251-6991.
