Richard Shaw, a leading ceramics innovator for more than five decades, is a master of trompe-l’oeil (“fool the eye”) sculpture. Still Life Jar with Green Apple is an assemblage of everyday objects, including books with surfaces that feel like paper. Using white earthenware, he challenges the relationship between appearance and reality. He has said, “I try to stand back and be the absent arranger, creating a poem about a person using humor, irony, and elegance.”
