With a major in ceramics and a minor in sculpture from Wichita State University, Steve Howell has become one of America's most well known and respected ceramicists, particularly in the world of art fairs. With over a remarkable 100 gallery and museum exhibitions to his credit, both one-person and group, and several dozen feature print articles devoted to his work, his name has become synonymous with beautifully executed and intricately designed sculptural forms. His color palette, leaning mostly toward a mixture of light, airy pastels, is a pleasant relief from the usual spate of darker colors often seen, and the forms themselves bear little, if any, resemblance to the classic forms that are so common.
Prior to becoming a full-time studio potter in 1983, Mr. Howell taught ceramics at the university level in Vermont, and further honed his skills assisting and teaching at universities in Kansas, Texas, and Hawaii, as well as the venerable Penland School in North Carolina. As the recipient of dozens of art fair awards, Mr. Howell continues to push the boundaries of design and execution, never wanting to rely on past success. When not working in his Gainsville, Florida studio, Mr. Howell enjoys cooking and wine-tastings.
Photographer Les Slesnick retired from the art show circuit in 2006 after more than 30 years of doing major art fairs around the country. He holds an M.F.A. from the Savannah College of Art and Design and, in 1993, was made a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain.
Mr Slesnick is a strong supporter of outreach and mentoring programs provided by many art fairs. In 2010, he developed the groundbreaking Emerging Artist as Entrepreneur Program for the Saint Louis Art Fair, in which college students each worked 45 hours over a four-day period in what has been referred to as a total immersion program that included nine hours of classroom lecture. Twenty artists participated in the program, representing a remarkable combined total of 448 years of experience in the art fair business. Labeling himself as "an artist and art fair advocate," he continues to be outspoken on industry issues and to volunteer his time at art fairs in and out of state. Mr. Slesnick resides in Orlando. |
