Clay Has Memory: Creative Lineages from Africa
NOW OPEN
The exhibition brings together works by historical, modern, and contemporary artists who draw on and preserve intergenerational knowledge through their practices. Referencing the long history of ceramics in Africa, these artists harness the potential of craft traditions and the vitality of clay to establish new relationships to place and shared histories.
As the first exhibition to focus on African Diasporic artistic practices organized by the Princeton University Art Museum, Clay Has Memory foregrounds the techniques, memories, and innovations contained within ceramic vessels and sculpture and centers the contributions of ceramic artists—in particular the impact of women—in fostering connections across geographies and generations.
