Christi Friesen: The Books Edition

by

I forgot to get to blithering about this part of my CF class – she talked about her book projects. The awaited Dogs book (the next in her sculpting series) will be in 2013.

And there are children’s books ahead that are structured as “Read It Make It”. The titles I heard were: Harold and the Big Pile of Monsters and Super Amazing Fix It Man Ruins Everything

Most interestingly though is a new series of books Christi is putting out called Flourish. The first in the series will be Flora and she is currently accepting pre-orders for the book (which is slated to be released in December). Why pre-order? Well she’s adding in goodies for the first 200 pre-orders as well as a draw that takes place when the book launches. You can check out the whole deal here.

We knew the Sqwauwk (the critter on the board above) when he was born. Check him out now!

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022.  A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay.  POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
