Funk You Too! Humor and Irreverence in Ceramic Sculpture, Museum of Arts and Design, New York, NY

Presenting the work of contemporary artists alongside artists of the Funk Art generation, this exhibition examines the legacy of humor, subversion, and expressive figuration in ceramics. Carrying on the irreverent attitude of their predecessors against institutional strictures of "good art", these contemporary artists use their medium to address the pressing political and social issues of our day.
