Stanley Rosen: Alligators & Objects
We first exhibited Stanley Rosen鈥檚 work in the autumn of 2017, following his one-man exhibition in early 2017, organized by Jamie Franklin at the Bennington Museum. His museum show revealed a fully developed sculptor, working in hand-formed ceramics. Many of his shapes evoke ancient architectural sites. Stanley鈥檚 mastery of his medium was not altogether surprising. At the time of his Bennington show, he was just shy of 90 years old. He helped develop the Bennington College ceramics department for thirty years, between 1960-91. During that time, he had largely forsworn exhibiting to focus on teaching. He was a rare thing in art- a fully realized, under known, master practitioner. His work drew much attention and MADD acquired six sculptures for their collection. Since 2017, Rosen has shown with Peter Blum, Thomas Erben Gallery, and had a special installation of his drawings at the 2018 NADA fair in Miami organized by SHFAP.
