Kohler Art Center

Kohler Art Center pieces.  We also got to see the slide show of artists working in the factory. 

Toilet Teapot.  Richard Notkin piece on the wall.  

Richard Notkin in the 70's. You can just barely see some of the brick work that is in some of his more current work.  I have taken a workshop from Richard. He is a very political artist and comments on the state of affairs in our world.  Look him up.  I talked to him yesterday and reminded him about where we met. He said the one thing he remembered about his visit to Tucson was that the toilets backed up during his workshop.  He quickly qualified that with the fact that it wasn't the only thing he remembered, but totally stopped talking after that.  ;). 

Sergei Osopov?? spelled wrong
Pregnant Woman- much better in person.

Deer Grill

Interlocking brick wall
Detail brick
Octopus cup
Sgraffito! (Leila!!)
 
New take on urinals.  
This is 2 feet wide
If you can, enlarge this to see the individual tiles. It's about all the bad things we do to ourselves 
The torso, upper arms and thighs are cloth. 



There are 6 done up bathrooms.  This is just one.
