Ceramics Now announces a new Call for Papers
In honoring our commitment to showing the evolving trends and concepts that shape contemporary ceramics, Ceramics Now is pleased to announce a new call for papers. We invite thought-provoking essays, comprehensive exhibition reviews, and features that address significant movements or major events in the field.
We particularly encourage essays that examine current trends and concepts in contemporary ceramics, drawing connections across a diverse range of artists and practices.
Please note that this call for papers is not intended for artist profile submissions. However, exhibition reviews may focus on a single artist when their work offers a uniquely significant perspective.
Before submitting an article, you are encouraged to contact the editor at vasi@ceramicsnow.org with a brief outline of your proposal. We prioritize articles grounded in original research that has not previously been published elsewhere.
• Articles should range between 1200 – 3000 words.
• Please include high-resolution images with appropriate credits.
• Along with your article, provide a short biography.
• We offer at least $150 for selected articles, thanks to Ceramics Now patron subscribers who contribute to our Writers Fund.
• We can assist with arranging guided tours, securing exhibition tickets, and setting up relevant meetings.

Hello,
My name is Jacob Jackson and I am a professor of ceramics and sculpture at Brigham Young University, Hawaii. In addition to ceramics and sculpture I teach classes on contemporary art and aesthetics. I am interested in writing an article about the Japanese ceramic artist En Iwamura. His work if Exuberant and whimsical with clear influence from artists like Jun Kaneko and Yoshitomo Nara. His work is also inspired by traditional Japanese ceramics. He calls his style “Neo Jomon”. Iwamura is an emerging tallent who is poised to be an internationally acclaimed ceramic artist and I am sure that the readership of Ceramics Now would love to learn more about him!
