FEATURED ARTIST: Jennie Jieun Lee

Jennie Jieun Lee’s practice mimics, articulates, and navigates emotional and psychological spaces through the creation of expressive, richly textured ceramics activated by abstract paintings with hints of representational imagery. She creates an array of objects, including wheel-thrown, hand-altered vessels, masks, and slip cast busts with morphing, multipart features that are covered with texture, gesture, and a spirited approach to glazing. Lee’s exuberant ceramics and lively deformations challenge the stale notion of a strict fine art/craft dichotomy, which has considered ceramics as inferior in past era.

Jennie Jieun Lee (b. 1973, Seoul, Korea) lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. She studied at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA. In 2016 she was awarded the Pollock Krasner Grant and received the Artadia Grant in 2015. Lee is also a member of the Stanley Love Performance Group. Recent exhibitions include Marlborough Chelsea: View Room, New York; Martos Gallery, New York; 11R, New York; and Cooper Cole, Toronto. Lee is currently preparing for a group show at Regina Rex, New York on September 11 and a solo show at The Pit, Los Angeles in March 2017. On September 9 she will also launch special edition Cameo Jars for The Posters, which will also be sold at the New Museum store.
