About This Event

Riehl produces these objects in her Paris studio; the presentation emphasizes her material processes and the transition from studio-scale making to gallery display.
About Alice Riehl’s Porcelain Florilegium
At the Museum of Arts and Design, **Alice Riehl’s *Porcelain Florilegium*** presents an exhibition centered on Riehl’s porcelain studies of botanical form. Shown in New York City as part of the museum’s ongoing attention to contemporary craft, the work places studio ceramics in conversation with the long history of cataloging plants through art. The pieces read like specimens and records, not decoration, which sharpens the sense of porcelain as an archival material as much as an expressive one.
