Recall. Reframe. Respon d. The Art of Paul Scott
\n

Public tours are always FREE and mee t in the front lobby. The museum will not have public tours on Thanksgivi ng Day\, November 27th. \;

At first glance\, artist Paul Scot t’s transfer-printed tableware may look familiar—like something you have seen in your grandparents’ china cabinet or a second-hand shop. Look clos er and you will notice subtle differences that add up to a powerful narra tive shift. Scott (British\, b. 1953) subverts this seemingly unassuming blue-and-white “cultural wallpaper” to create sharp\, thought-provoking s ocial commentary. Working with new ceramic forms or repurposing antique p ieces\, Scott breaks\, reassembles\, erases\, and adds details using scre enprinting\, engraving\, and collage processes to create new “historical” patterns. Broadly\, his works address updated narratives about art\, his tory and American experiences.
