Combined with his unmatched, masterful skills as both painter and sculptor, the resulting works draw from the past and reflect on the present. Semi-autobiographical, Isupov\u2019s intimate narratives interweave poignant representations of men and women, parents and children, shown alongside one another, their pets pointing to the naive sense of security we hold in our daily lives. These works explore individual, interior landscapes and the continually expanding dualities of the self within complex psychological relationships. Intensely personal yet universal, these works in the context of the present day, remind and call upon us to value, protect and preserve the precarious balance we all stand to lose at any present moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isupov graduated from the Art Institute of Tallinn, Estonia in 1990 with a BA\/MFA in Ceramics. In 1994 he immigrated to the United States. Isupov has a long international resume with work included in numerous collections and exhibitions, including the National Gallery of Australia, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (TX), Museum of Arts and Design (NY), Racine Art Museum (WI) and Museum of Fine Arts Boston (MA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His work is featured in numerous books, catalogs and magazines including Postmodern Ceramics, Sex Pots: Eroticism in Ceramics, The Ceramic Surface; Shy Boy, She-Devil, and Isis: The Art of Conceptual Craft; Confrontational Ceramics. He teaches workshops and lectures internationally at museums, universities, and art centers. Recent residencies include Archie Bray Foundation, Helena (MT), The International Ceramics Studio, Kecskem\u00e9t, Hungary, and Guldagergaard International Ceramic Research Center, Sk\u00e6lsk\u00f8r, Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2001 was awarded the Louis Comfort Tiffany Biennial Award. He works in porcelain using traditional hand-building and sculpting techniques to combine surface and form with narrative painting using stains and clear glaze.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 25 &#8211; December 9, 2023 ALLIANCES Sergei Isupov Solo Exhibition Image courtesy of Ferrin Contemporary Sergei Isupovsergeiisupov.com Isupov is a master of nonlinear narration.
