Ann Agee
Arts/Industry: Pottery, 1990, 1998
Ann Agee’s work is a narrative exploration of scenes from everyday life. Her extensive body of work using blue glaze or cobalt-blue stain on either a porcelain or vitreous china ground is influenced by Delftware and Staffordshire transferware pottery. Since her residency at the Kohler Arts Center in 1991, Agee’s practice has focused on replicating objects by hand, a process employed to simulate mass production and engage ambiguous delineations between fine art, design, and craft; histories of cultural appropriation and exchange; and the range of women’s lived experiences. Agee is a leading member in a pioneering generation of feminist ceramicists. She currently lives and works in New York.
