Important Organic Sculpture by Earl Hooks, 1970
18" wide X 10" diameter X 9.75" high
Earl Hooks was among the most significant African-American ceramic artists of the 20th century and the founder of Studio A, one of the country’s first black owned and operated fine arts galleries, located in Gary, Indiana. He was a noted Howard-trained artist who became the chairman of the art department at Fisk University. This unique sculpture featuring monochromatic, biomorphic shapes shows Hook’s commitment to exploring the relationships between light, balance, and form.
