Philadelphia has the honor of being the year 2000 host city of the Republican National Convention. To celebrate this event, The Clay Studio asked independent curator Gail M. Brown to create an exhibit of a political nature. In her words: Artists have always been visual commentators who mark their time and place from their creative and life perspective. This invitational offers a visual forum to social, political and environmental issues expressed passionately in clay. The work promises to reflect personal points of view and strong concerns.
