ArtStream Nomadic Gallery, the mobile pottery gallery, will be at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Department of Art and Art History on March 7-8. Three guest artists will be coming, including Lisa Orr, Ayumi Horie and Lorna Meaden.

Horie, Meaden and Orr will be presenting free public lectures as part of the Hixson-Lied Visiting Artists and Scholars series.

Each artist will give an artist talk and demonstration during the visit:

• Orr: 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on March 7 in Richards Hall, Room 118.

• Horie: 10:30-11:30 a.m. on March 8 in Richards Hall, Room 118.

• Meaden: 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on March 8 in Richards Hall, Room 118.

The ArtStream Nomadic Gallery has been putting contemporary ceramic art on the street since 2002. It is a traveling exhibition space housed in a restored 1967 Airstream trailer. Based in Carbondale, Colorado, it has exhibited in more than 150 locations. It will be parked outside Richards Hall.

Orr has been a professional potter and a student of ceramics for more than 25 years. She completed her master’s at the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University and later received grants, including a Fulbright and a MAAA/NEA. She teaches, lectures and shows nationally and internationally.

Horie is a full-time studio potter from Portland, Maine, who makes functional pots, mainly with drawings of animals. She was recently awarded a Distinguished Fellow grant in Craft by the United States Artists and is the first recipient of Ceramics Monthly’s Ceramic Artist of the Year award.

Meaden, who is from Durango, Colorado, is a studio potter who creates work that is soda-fired porcelain. She says her work begins with the consideration of function, and the goal is for the form and surface of the pots to be interdependent. She received her bachelor’s from Fort Lewis College and her master’s from Ohio University.

The Hixson-Lied Visiting Artists & Scholars Lecture Series is underwritten by the Hixson-Lied Endowment, with additional support from other sources. The program brings notable artists, scholars and designers to UNL’s Department of Art and Art History, enhancing the education of students and enriching the culture of the state by providing a way for Nebraskans to interact with luminaries in the fields of art, art history and design.

Richards Hall is located at Stadium Drive and T streets. For more information, contact the Department of Art and Art History at 402-472-5522.

The remaining Hixson-Lied Visiting Artists & Scholars Lectures are:

• Sculptor Carlton Newton at 5:30 p.m. on March 31 in Richards Hall, Room 15. Newton is currently on the faculty of the sculpture department at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he teaches courses in studio sculpture, contemporary art criticism and video and computer technology.

• Photographer Takashi Arai at 5:30 p.m. on April 5 in Richards Hall, Room 15. Beginning in 2010, Arai used the daguerreotype technique to create individual records or micro-monuments of his encounters with surviving crew members and the salvaged hull of the Daigo Fuküryumaru, a nuclear fallout-contaminated fishing boat. This project led him to photograph the deeply interconnected subjects of Fukushima, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

• Deb Sokolow at 5:30 p.m. on April 28 in Richards Hall, Room 15. Sokolow is a Chicago-based artist and a lecturer at Northwestern University. She is a 2012 recipient of an Artadia Grant and has participated in residencies nationally and internationally.
