Join us in the Marek-Weaver Family Commons for light refreshments from 5–6 p.m. before heading to see Recall. Reframe. Respond followed immediately by CAM Presents: Paul The Art of Paul Scott in the Fath Auditorium at 6 p.m. The exhibition is then open until 8 p.m. just for you! RSVPs are encouraged!* Please check in downstairs when you arrive or up at the front desk with Visitor Services. 

At first glance, artist Paul Scott’s transfer-printed tableware* may look familiar—like something you have seen in your grandparents’ china cabinet or a second-hand shop. Look closer and you will notice subtle differences that add up to a powerful narrative shift. Scott (British, b. 1953) subverts this seemingly unassuming blue-and-white “cultural wallpaper” to create sharp, thought-provoking social commentary. Working with new ceramic forms or repurposing antique pieces, Scott breaks, reassembles, erases, and adds details using screenprinting, engraving, and collage processes to create new “historical” patterns. Broadly, his works address updated narratives about art, history and American experiences.

*Please note, the reservation process has changed! You can now register for both the opening and the lecture together by choosing, "Paul Scott Member Opening and Lecture".
