Rodeo Plate
It was made by Don Schreckengost. It is dated 1941. Its medium is glazed ceramic. It is a part of the Exhibitions department.
In 1939, during his tenure in the distinguished ceramics program at Alfred University in New York, Schreckengost accepted a summer position at the Escuela de Bellas Artes in San Miguel de Allende in Guanajuato, Mexico. There he met the Mexican painter Pedro Martínez, who was creating murals for the school. Schreckengost’s Rodeo Plate was perhaps inspired by the muralist’s subject matter and approach to figures.
It is credited Everson Museum of Art, Gift of IBM Corporation.
Its dimensions are
H x diam.: 5.7 × 48.3 cm (2 1/4 in. × 19 in.)
This object was previously on display as a part of the exhibition A Dark, A Light, A Bright: The Designs of Dorothy Liebes.
