Peter Olson: Marked for Life

Join Craig Krull Gallery for Peter Olson’s Marked for Life exhibit. Peter Olson is a Philadelphia-based photographer and a self taught ceramicist who makes pieces using an innovative hybrid process. He transfers ink from photographic prints onto the surface of a wheel-thrown pot, and when the clay is fired in the kiln, the iron oxide in the ink leaves a permanent image behind, baked in. Olson’s works generally follow forms from Classical and pre-modern European art history, and his pursuit of ceramics as an art medium grew out of visits he made to various museums. The photographs he imprints on his ceramics are all taken by him.

Opening Reception: June 1st, 5 -7pm
Artist Talk with Guy Dill & Peter Olson, June 1st, 3.30pm
Exhibition dates: May 25 – July 6, 2024
