Ralph Bacerra: Exquisite Beauty by Jo Lauria (2015-05-03)

Published in conjunction with the exhibition of the same title at Ben Maltz Gallery, Otis College of Art and Design, September 26 - December 6, 2015. The first retrospective to document the eye-dazzling ceramics of Ralph Bacerra (1938-2008), a Los Angeles-based artist known for his innovative approach to surface design and embellishment, the exhibition features more than ninety of the artist's finest pieces - dramatic, highly decorated vessels and sculptures that have never before been the focus of a major exhibition or publication.
