MARY BARRINGER & DANIELLE BURKE

1/24/2022

 
MARY BARRINGER AND DANIELLE BURKE FEATURED IN DISTINGUISHED ARTIST SERIES WEEKEND
​jANUARY 22-23, 2022
​Four times a year, the James Renwick Alliance brings notable American craft artists from around the country to Washington DC for the Distinguished Artist Series, weekend events which include a Saturday Workshop and Sunday lecture. 

This year, in honor of the 40th anniversary of JRACraft and the 25th anniversary of the Center for Craft, we combine our most well-known programs for one celebratory season. Four JRACraft Distinguished Artist Series returning encore artists will be paired with four Center for Craft Windgate-Lamar Fellows to present a collaborative weekend exploring commonality and materiality. Each weekend will be hosted online and include a virtual Saturday demonstration/studio visit and free Sunday lecture.

ABOUT MARY BARRINGER
Mary Barringer received a BA in art from Bennington College, apprenticed with Michael Frimkess, and has been a studio artist since 1973, making both sculpture and functional pottery. Barringer's works incorporate her belief that the surface technique needs to be integral to a pot’s construction and not only its appearance. She uses multiple layers of glaze and slip that are scratched, stained and sanded resulting in the integration of the surface decoration with the clay beneath. Her work has been exhibited internationally, and she has taught widely at universities, art schools, and craft centers and including Ohio University, Hartford Art School, and Anderson Ranch.
​

ABOUT DANIELLE BURKE
​​Danielle Burke’s current work focuses on weaving histories, processes, and ephemera. Through her studio practice and archival research she hopes to better understand the boundaries of authenticity, the role of craft within a traditional practice, the influence of landscapes on material culture, and the ways that textiles can be read as texts.
