(American, born 1953) Centrum, signed and dated on back "Melnick 1989", burnished clay, hand cast paper, and natural pigments, 4 x 48-1/2 in. Note: Melnick started to experiment with paper in the late 1970s: "I was making these thin ceramic plates, and they were a little too fragile sometimes, and someone gave me some paper pulp and I made some plates, and they took me a long time to finish. I rubbed some ceramic materials into the paper, and it stuck to the paper, and it was rich, and I was thinking, this is the way to go." Thus began Melnick's nearly thirty-year career working with paper, either cast into sculptural forms or providing the basis for his monotypes. .
