Centre Gallery presents Pretty in Porcelain, a group exhibition curated by USF’s Lil’ Muddies Fun Bunch. The show consists of various interpretations of the only rule of the show: usage of 1 pound of porcelain clay. This thematic exhibition is organized with the intent of unifying artists with the common link of porcelain. Porcelain is portrayed as the purest and most refined form of clay. It bears historical and cultural significance, from the first true porcelain of the Tang dynasty to modern advancements in porcelain and industrialization such as the Kohler Company. Limiting the artist to this one specific genre of media results in a reflection of each individual artist’s style and personality as well as an incorporation of concept and aesthetic. The showing artists include students, alumni, faculty and community members.

The showcase will be from October 2nd -13th, with the Desart opening reception Monday, October 2nd from 12-1 pm. Desserts and refreshments will be provided. The closing reception Friday the 13th from 7-9 pm. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.
All Centre Gallery events are free and open to the public.
