Grant Levy-Lucero venerates a Mexican icon with an edition of hand-painted vases.

The brand logos that emblazon Levy Lucero’s ceramics are a nod to modern consumer culture. Much like the ceramics painted with myths and gods by Levy-Lucero's ancient predecessors, they embody the spirit of our time and place. The edition of 25 glazed ceramic sculptures re-imagines the logo of popular Mexican candy, de la Rosa – an ode to Guadalajara where the artist hand painted each vase.

Behind the scenes

Grant Levy-Lucero1 collaborationGrant Levy-Lucero sees ancient Greek and Roman pots as a blueprint. The textbook definition of art. His own ceramics take these as a starting point. They’re witty, and laden with American logos. Bounty, Cookie Crisp and Moon Pie all feature. To create them, the artist uses a traditional coiling technique. This is where you roll out long, snake-like shapes of clay, and then layer them on top of each other to make a vase. After, he adds imagery in bright gloss paint, drawing attention to the bumpy surfaces of the clay. Deliberately naive, the pots also nod to old cartoons from the Looney Tunes empire.
