- First monograph on Elsa Sahal, a rising star of contemporary
ceramicsTrained at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-arts de
Paris in the atelier of Georges Jeanclos, Elsa Sahal quickly
focused on working with ceramics for their sensuality and
fragility. Former resident at the Archie Bray Foundation for the
Ceramic Arts, in 2013 (Helena, MT), at Alfred University, New York
State College of Ceramics, in 2009-2010 (Alfred, NY) and at the
Manufacture Nationale de Sevres (2007-2008), Elsa Sahal has also
taught at the Haute Ecole d'Art et de Design in Geneva and at the
Ecole Superieure d'Arts Decoratifs in Strasbourg. She experiments
in particular with the idea of volume and balance in sculpture,
while returning to an exploration of the themes of the body and
femininity. Ambiguous, dense, sensual and colorful, her works
oscillate between anthropomorphic landscape and the landscaped
body, taking up Cezanne's dream of uniting women's curves with the
shoulders of hills. Elsa Sahal conceives, kneads and then produces
complex and disturbing forms sustained by dense colors and
sublimated through enamel. Winner of the MAIF prize for sculpture,
in 2008, and the contemporary sculpture prize awarded by the
Fondazione Francesco Messina, in 2007, Elsa Sahal has presented her
work in one-woman shows and group exhibitions in numerous museums
around the globe: at the Bonnefantenmuseum, 'Ceramix, Ceramic art
from Gauguin to Schutte', in 2015 (Maastricht); at the MAD Museum,
'Body and Soul, New International Ceramics', in 2013 (New York); at
the Fondation d'entreprise Ricard, 'Sculptures', in 2008 (Paris);
and at the Incheon Women Artists Biennale, in 2008 (Korea). Text in
English and French.
