1970s Mid-Century Modern Hand Carved Pottery Mosaic Sculpture by Louis Mendez

1970s Mid-Century Modern Hand Carved Pottery Mosaic Sculpture by Louis Mendez

Located in Southampton, NJ

An early 1970s pottery landscape mosaic by celebrated artist and potter Louis Mendez. This piece was made by Mendez for a close friend of his that he met while taking a lithography class in Orange County, NY in 1973-74. Condition on the mosaic is fantastic. Biography of Louis Mendez copied from his namesake website. Louis Mendez: August 7, 1929 - July 27, 2012 Louis Mendez was born on the Lower East Side of Manhattan of Puerto Rican, Spanish and Irish heritage.

In the mid-1930s, his family sold the business and moved to Goshen, NY, where his high school teachers recognized his unusual talent in drawing and sculpture. Louis went on to earn BFA ('52) and MFA ('54) degrees from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. His years there were deeply formative, as he became a protégé and friend of Professors Charles Harder and Daniel Rhodes, influential authors and among the mid-century leaders of the American studio ceramics movement. While still a student at Alfred, Louis began driving into Manhattan with a trunk full of his newly minted pottery...
