Sybaris Exhibits
American Crafts
Sybaris Gallery's "Living
Treasures" exhibition will
run through Feb. 6. It is a
tribute to Arthur Espenet
Carpenter, Sheila Hicks,
Melvin Lindquist, Sam
Maloof, Ed Moulthrop, John
Prip, June Schwarcz, Ramona
Solberg, Paul Soldner, Robert
Sperry, Rudolf Staffel and
Lenore Tawney.
Each has demonstrated the
type of technical skill and
creative vision that has
helped bring the craft move-
ment to the forefront. These
are senior members of the
craft movement tremendous
variety of imagery marks
their works, which range
from purely sculptural pieces
to furniture and jewelry.
Their materials are clay,
wood, metal and fiber.
Paul Soldner has aided the
development of ceramic art in
this country. Mr. Soldner in-
troduced American-style
raku, a low-fire process, and
in so doing, helped to
legitimize low-fired ware.
Robert Sperry has always
focused on "the pot." Mr.
Sperry's work has continued
to grow.
Rudolf Staffel has created
outstanding hand-
constructed and turned vases
that often look half like pain-
ting and sculpture.
Lenore Tawney was a major
force in redefining postwar
weaving. By inventing the
means to free weaving from
the boundaries of the loom,
she created fiber sculptures
that hung freely in space.
Sheila Hicks is known for
her imaginative installations
aimed at de-isolating art, us-
ing local materials, especial-
ly ones that have already
been used.
Arthur Espenet Carpen-
ter's designs have become a
model for the succeeding
generation of woodworkers. A
master of the "California
roundover style," Mr.
Carpenter is known for his
ability to consistently pro-
duce new, ingenious designs
with an emphasis on form
and an organic style of flow-
ing lines.
Sam Maloof is synonymous
with chairs. A master of
understated strength and
consummate grace, Mr.
Maloofs rocking chair series
of the early '60s stretched the
functional idea of furniture
toward a sculptural dignity
and scale, transcending style
and time.
Melvin Lindquist creates
classically influenced vase
Soidner's raku vase.
forms of burl and spalted
woods.
Ed Moulthrop has helped to
bring the woodturning field 91
to the level of an art form. Mr.
Moulthrop's voluptuous
vessels are noted for their im-
pressive size.
Ramona Solberg was one o 4
the first jewelers to use found
objects in contemporary -4
jewelry and is well-known for
her love of everyday items
such as old-fashioned A
underwear buttons and •
dominoes.
John Prip established a -4
metal department at the .4
School for the American
Craftsman.
Mr.
Prip
discovered the cut-and-lift
process in fabrication after
studying Shaker boxes.
June Schwarcz, like John-9
Prip, has focused on surface 4
enrichment rather than the
function of a piece. She in-
vented her own electroplating
process.

Sybaris Gallery is at 301 W.
Fourth St., Royal Oak.
Gallery hours are Tuesday-
Saturday 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
Nine tzadikim do not make a
minyan, but one common
man joining them completes
the minyan.
