Neutral Disturbance pairs the sculpture of Amy Ralston and drawings of Stella Untalan.

Neutral colors, white, black, brown, and gray dominate the installation. Its organic gentleness is approachable and surprising both in its intimacy and scale.

Toshiko Takaezu, one of the most influential and world-renowned ceramic artists, died last week at the age of 88. Takaezu taught for 25 years at Princeton University, where she was a mentor who shaped the lives of generations of artists. She was known for her round forms, which often incorporated an element of sound.
- from American Craft Magazine, Elizabeth Ryan

Toshiko Takaezu died last week; she made magnificent work all her life. It was a long and artful life. We thank her.
