Description

Edward Eberle is a ceramist and painter. The black room is a found object, left over from an earlier installation. A simple drawing of the space, dashed off in his studio, indicates a subtle, near architectural program playing with dimension, value and volume, which are minimally realized here. An imperfect space becomes strangely idealized.
