Description

Set of two vintage 1950’s studio art pottery black and white glazed earthenware fish plates / platters by La Gardo Tackett and Kenji Fujita.

“Kenji Fujita is a visual artist who makes work out of ordinary materials such as cardboard, aluminum foil, felt, wood, fabric, paper and paint. For his ""flat"" works, he creates commonplace geometries of shape and form that are then cut, torn and glued into unexpected amalgams of order and disorder. With Fujita's three-dimensional works, these same relations of shape, form and structure become animated as the viewer engages with the work in physical space and time. Kenji Fujita has been making and showing work for over 30 years. He was born in New York City and lives in Staatsburg, NY. He teaches at Bard College and SVA.”

“LaGardo Tackett (1911-1992) Potter and designer. Professor at California School of Art in the 1940s; subsequently designed for the Architectural Pottery Company in Los Angeles.”
