ReFind: Karen Newgard and Ellen Shankin
Palevitz Collection
Pfannebecker Collection

We have selected pieces from the Robert Pfannebecker Collection and the Fran and Barry Palevitz Collection by makers Karen Newgard and Ellen Shankin. Known for their approaches to surface, Karen Newgard and Ellen Shankin each consistently create highly functional works with two diverse methods of surface design, through sgraffito and carved or applied textures. Thoughtful and considered forms are the essence of each maker's work, and the pieces we have selected are a testament to their unique ways of making.
